tried this suggestion from greyback in OSKController.qml:
Connections {
target: ApplicationManager
onFocusRequested: {
if (__oskSurface) {
// application in focus changed while OSK visible
if (appId == "") // appId parameter of focusRequested signal. This
hopefully means all focused app closed.
Qt.inputMethod.hide(); //close OSK
}
}
}
Unfortunately the Qt.inputMethod.hide() method does not close the OSK.
According to ricmm, only the owner of the input context (i.e. the app
that has just been killed) can call hide on it.
The proper fix according to ricmm would be maliit-server should detect
when a peer is closed and invalidate the active input context or
explicitly make the OSK surface invisible. I have no idea where the code
would be in maliit-server to do this, and all of our maliit experts are
gone (:
So one potential workaround to try as quick fixes:
- instead of focusing the next app in the stack as we do now when the currently
focused app is killed, focus the shell. This will cause the OSK to hide
properly - as it does now if you just have one app running and you kill it from
under the covers.
Was unclear where in application_manager.cpp to make this change or I would
have tried.
@greyback - can you give this a try?
