iOS Bluetooth Keyboard

[hrcap]

Hi All

I hope you are all well.

I have a standalone on iOS... when I click a button it opens an iOS field, displays the existing text with an on screen keyboard, and works as it should.

When I have a bluetooth keyboard connected to my iPhone I click the button... the existing text is not displayed (the field appears blank)... I type on the BT keyboard, no new text appears in the field.... I close the field and the text is then displayed in my viewing field which has the existing text + the new text entered with the BT keyboard

Has anyone got any ideas why the iOS field isnt working properly with the BT keyboard.


For info:
• the BT keyboard works as it should when clicking into a normal (non-iOS) field on the iPhone
• The BT keyboard works as it should with other iOS apps such as WhatsApp


Many Thanks in advance

Hi! This sounds like an issue with how iOS handles focus and text updates when a Bluetooth keyboard is connected. Perhaps try forcing the field to refresh its contents when it gains focus, or check if there’s a keyboardType or focus handler you can adjust in your script. Also, make sure you’re using the latest iOS keyboard API support in LiveCode. Hope that helps!
