Hiding The Keyboard.

Hii Guys!

I am not at my PC at the moment. I was wondering if there is a command that can hide an active on screen keyboard? Maybe - focus on image "test" -?

Many Thanks,

Matt.

Do you mean the on-screen keyboard on a phone, or one on a computer screen?

Hi Matt,

Code: Select all

focus on nothing
should do the trick.

The OP did mention not being at his PC, when surely he meant not having his phone in hand.

Otherwise I am really confused.

Klaus, In general, does "focus on nothing" hide a mobile keyboard?

Unlike some people I did not jump to conclusions, and spent far too much time attempting to hide a MacOS on-screen keyboard:

As that floats over every LC stack and palette I suspect it cannot be done.

Yes.

The on-screen keyboard, which I have used only to find what certain keys represent if, say, I press the option key, is an OS gadget. LC cannot hide OS gadgets, any more than it could hide, say, an open excel spreadsheet.

Perhaps LC could use appleEvents?

And now I believe what the OP actually said, that it is a desktop issue.

@ Matt. What are you trying to do?

We are in the ANDROID forum, so we can presume this is a mobile problem. 8)

Klaus.

I did mention that the OP's original post was confusing to me. And Richmond.

Matt???
