Question

requestSoftKeyboard Windows 8

Hi all,

I'm trying to get an existing App working on a Wibows 8 samsung ativ smart pc.. I've noticed a few things not quite working right, double click for one.

But the most important one at the moment is that I can't get the soft keyboard to display. The code works fine on iOs and  Android.

_base._user.needsSoftKeyboard = true;

_base._user.requestSoftKeyboard();

Is there something I'm missing?

I'm giving up.. I'm going to have to port the project to a standard SWF framework and using MDM Zinc to launch TabTip.exe

System.exec("C:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\microsoft shared\\ink\\TabTip.exe");

I can't tell from your code snippet, but are you also setting the input to have focus?

stage.focus = _base._user;
