[Bug 1470640] Re: In Vivid Vervet, onscreen keyboard won't input to password/user fields

 

I'm not sure how Launchpad handles invalid bugs, and I'd like for the
solution to be available for anyone else having the problem.

Would it be proper to convert it from a bug to a question?

Title:
  In Vivid Vervet, onscreen keyboard won't input to password/user fields

Status in onboard package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  X/Ubuntu 15:

  Onboard keyboard works fine in desktop environments, but will not pass
  input to user/password slots at login/resume screen.

  Clicking with a mouse OR tapping on a touchscreen does not work.
  Subsequently, when using a regular keyboard, after trying with
  onscreen keyboard, you must click into the password field again before
  input from regular keyboard is accepted.

  Suspect that focus is not being properly returned/shifted to the text
  input field by the keyboard, and the field itself is losing
  programmatic focus.
