Just a comment I found interesting in regards to some earlier comments here,
about the OSK actually showing up but then disappearing as a key on it is
pressed. I was trying many different things to go about my problem of lack of
OSK in my GTK app on the phone. One thing I did, was that I actually installed
florence on my phone:
$ sudo mount -o remount,rw /
$ sudo apt-get install frorence
$ sudo mount -o remount,ro /
then, inside of my app I created a button labelled "OSK", and in the OnClick
event of the button I have put:
Procedure Button2.Onclick(Sender: TObject);
begin
Unix.fpSystem('florence &');
end;
Now, this is written in FreePascal/Lazarus, but the meaning is that I
programatically call florence, and put it to background (&). ANd the thing is,
the OSK actually DO show up! But just like in some earlier comments here about
maliit OSK (which I can't get to show up, nor do I know a command to show it up
programatically), once I press any button on it, it disappears.
Only if I hit a button that is kayboard input anyways, if I hit a button on the
OSK that is simply opening florence's OSK setting window, then that window does
show up, with all the settings, and I can work in that window, then close it
and the OSK is still there. Until I hit any keyboard input button. Then it
disappears.
