System Keyboard pops-in when going into scene

Question

hello.
I have a scene_0 in which I do :

https://sdk.picovr.com/docs/FAQ/chapter_twentyfour.html#how-to-disable-android-default-keyboard-in-unity-application

and a scene_1 in which I don't.

The user goes from :
Start App => Scene0 => Scene1 => Scene_0

and sometime (40%), when the user goes into Scene_0 (app start or between scene change) I have the app that goes into 2D and the keyboard appear from 1sec then the app return into VR.

What can I do ?

Answer 1

What if you comment out that code? Does the keyboard not appear or always exist?

Comments

I have an input field in Scene0.
When the user select it, the 2D keyboard appear. So that is why I use this code to disable the 2D Keyboard. If I comment out that code, the 2D keyboard doesn't appear between scene but appear on the input field.

I think you can use buttons instead of input fields. Do you have to type sth?

Yes. I open my own VR keyboard when the user has to type something.

here is the situation :
I need the user to type something in an inputfield so I put the code that remove the system keyboard and open my own VR keyboard.
Putting this code actually remove the system keyboard on the input field click but now the system keyboard opens sometime at the beginning of the scene

Hi,

You can try add the following code in Start function:

protected override void Start()
    {
        m_Keyboard = TouchScreenKeyboard.Open("", TouchScreenKeyboardType.Default, false, false, false);
        m_Keyboard.active = false;
    }

    protected override void LateUpdate()
    {
        m_Keyboard.active = false;
    }

In the meanwhile,try to check Hide Mobile Input option in CustomInputField Script of InputField:

Hope it helps you.
