Keyboard dismissal difference between iPhone and Android

I am experiencing a difference between iPhone and Android when switching scenes:

iPhone: Keyboard dismisses automatically
Android: Programmer must call [lua]Keyboard.focus(nil)[/lua] manually

Posting this so it can be confirmed and reported as a bug.

I would prefer automatic keyboard dismissal for both platforms, as I can’t think of any situation where I would want to keep the keyboard between scenes.

Even on iOS, the developer is generally responsible for dismissing the keyboard. I’m not sure what your using for a scene manager, but dropping a dismiss command just before you change scenes to take care of it. But it should be consistent. I’ll ask and see if anyone knows why it would be different.

Are you using storyboard? I will probably ask you to file a bug report using the Report a Bug link above.

I’m using Storyboard. Well, since I already have to remove the native edit field manually, I guess there is some logic having to remove the native keyboard manually as well. Just make it consistent.

PS! About your bug system:

  1. Searching on Google finds bugs.anscamobile.com. Isn’t the old “anscamobile” site obsolete, and should be removed?

  2. On coronalabs.com/resources/bugs which seems to be the official bug page, how do I report bugs, and how do I look up a bug by ID number?

  3. And speaking of, why do you have both developer.coronalabs.com/reference and docs.coronalabs.com/api? This seems like the same information only with different formatting.

In general, I love the Corona API for its simplicity and I must really credit you guys for being there for the developers in the forum, but there could be some cleanup work done like mentioned above, and you should be quick to update the official documentation with stuff that comes up in the forum (like Android not supporting gzip, and those pesky Facebook changes).

Bugs.anscamobile.com is an alias to bugs.coronalabs.com. I’m sure it’s still around for people who have it bookmarked.

For reporting bugs, scroll to the top of this forum page and click on the “Report a Bug” link. You should get a link to check on the status of your bug report. I’m not sure what the resources/bug page is about. I’ll ask and see.

developer.coronalabs.com/reference is the old docs and are out of date. You should only use http://docs.coronalabs.com/api going forward.
