I have been trying everything I can think of to make my txtCity EditText control open the soft keyboard automatically. Can someone please help me?
Dim IME1 As IME
Dim txtCity As EditText
IME1.Initialize("IME")
txtCity.InputType = txtCity.INPUT_TYPE_TEXT
txtCity.RequestFocus
IME1.ShowKeyboard(txtCity)
UPDATE: I inserted this in the manifest ediotr:
SetActivityAttribute(<activity name>, android:windowSoftInputMode, stateVisible)
I used Main for "<activity name>"?
Now, how do I get the keyboard to hide itself?
Answer: I inserted this command when I was finished - IME1.HideKeyboard
I hope this helps others.
