CoronaWindowMovesWhenKeyboardAppears At Different positions..

kilopop · March 22, 2015, 8:01pm

In an app with only landscape right and left, the window moves up a different amount for each position.

So on iPad device in landscape right, the keyboard sits 0 pixels under a newTextField whereas for landscape left it sits around 100px under.

Worse as tested on iPhone 5 device, one landscape orientation shifts the keyboard 0 pxs under a newTextField whereas for the other orientation it covers the newTextField so you can’t use it.

Using latest daily build.

Update - just upgraded the iPad to IOS 8.2 and the keyboard now comes up to the correct spot. So for iPad at least this issue is pre8.2

Can you post your build.settings please?

Sure, thanks Rob:

-- build.settings settings = { androidPermissions = { coronaWindowMovesWhenKeyboardAppears = true, "android.permission.RECORD\_AUDIO", "android.permission.WRITE\_EXTERNAL\_STORAGE", "android.permission.INTERNET", }, orientation = { default = "landscapeRight", supported = { "landscapeLeft", "landscapeRight" } }, iphone = { plist= { UIAppFonts = { "Clarendon CG Book Condensed.ttf" }, CoronaWindowMovesWhenKeyboardAppears=true, UILaunchStoryboardName = "LaunchScreen", UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend = false, UIHiddenStatusBar="YES", CFBundleIconFile="Icon.png", CFBundleIconFiles = { "Icon.png", "Icon@2x.png", "Icon-60.png", "Icon-60@2x.png", "Icon-60@3x.png", "Icon-72.png", "Icon-72@2x.png", "Icon-76.png", "Icon-76@2x.png", "Icon-Small-40.png", "Icon-Small-40@2x.png", "Icon-Small-40@3x.png", "Icon-Small-50.png", "Icon-Small-50@2x.png", "Icon-Small.png", "Icon-Small@2x.png", "Icon-Small@3x.png", }, }, }, plugins = { ["CoronaProvider.analytics.flurry"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs" }, ["plugin.google.play.services"] = { publisherId = "com.coronalabs" }, }, }

See these two lines?

coronaWindowMovesWhenKeyboardAppears = true,

CoronaWindowMovesWhenKeyboardAppears=true,

These enable an experimental panning mode. We think it’s pretty solid on Android, but on iOS we know it’s problematic. This is a feature that if you use it and it works for you then great. If not, you will need to do it the old-fashioned way and move the text fields on your own to try and position them. There is no time to work on trying to make this fully supported.

Also your build.settings is incorrect for Android. Please see this tutorial on build.settings:

Thanks for picking up on that. We’ve only built for IOS in the past so have never tested those Android entries of the settings. A whole new world of uncomplicated and straightforward fun to look forward to…
