Prevent fullscreen virtual keyboard on Android AIR

Hi,

I want to be able to prevent the virtual keyboard from going fullscreen in landscape mode in my Air application on Android.

There is a way to do this in native Android development using "IME_FLAG_NO_EXTRACT_UI" that is covered in this forum post: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4336762/disabling-the-fullscreen-editing-view-for-soft-keyboard-input-in-landscape

Does anyone know of a solution to this in an Air application (extensions included) ?

Thanks,

Karl

Hi Karl, sorry, I don't have a solution. I'm also looking for a way to do this. Did you find a way to prevent the softkeyboard going fullscreen in landscape?

I've noticed that sometimes, after I first open my landscape-only Air app, it will use the halfscreen keyboard - although, once it reverts back to the fullscreen keyboard it uses the fullscreen one from then on. I have no idea why this is or how to replicate it, but I thought it was interesting to note that an Air app can display a half screen keyboard in landscape mode - it just seems there is no way to control when!

If anyone can help us with this, please do!

Kind regards.
