This is done to prevent the virtual keyboard from appearing constantly in response to automatic or manually-driven focus events when using a keyboard or pointing device, which would drive people crazy. But, it also prevents the virtual keyboard from being openable manually, as a deliberate user action. We'll probably need a new way to communicate to KWin that we want to force it to show anyway with no event filtering, and then a "Show/hide virtual keyboard" button can use that. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
