[Bug 1234982] Re: [osk] Keyboard does not auto-hide when no longer needed

 

----------------------------------------------------------------

Desired solution:

Keyboard hides automatically when tapping outside form elements.

Daniela, if this is needed, it cannot be made in the toolkit reliably.
Th toolkit can hide components while their focus is grabbed, but if the
tap occurs on a non-active area, nothing is gonna take the focus away
from it. If this is need, applications must take care to take focus away
from any previous focus component.

  [osk] Keyboard does not auto-hide when no longer needed

Bug description:
  When I have entered the requisite data in a form or text field in an
  application, and then scroll and click on some other UI element which
  does not require text entry, the keyboard does not automatically go
  away. Instead, I must swipe down to close the keyboard, which is very
  annoying, especially when the keyboard is on top of Flickable
  elements.

  Having the keyboard auto-hide when it is no longer needed would be a
  great improvement to the user experience, as would possibly an
  explicit close button visible on the keyboard itself.
