Show virtual keyboard with Web Browser object

Post by stm-tjt »

Hi,

We are taking steps to incorporate the Web Browser object into our X2 pro 10 panel programs for PLC web server diagnostics.

However, I am currently unable to trigger the virtual keyboard when interacting with forms (text inputs) on web pages. The typing cursor shows correctly in the box, but the keyboard is not shown.

Is there a way - maybe with scripting - to force showing the keyboard and directing the input to the selected form field on the shown website?

Hello,
This is a known limitation of the web browser. You may consider looking into 3rd party web browser as a potential solution.
