"The working screenrect" should give you the area you have available when
the keyboard is up.

Hi Panos,
I discovered the “extra” line at the top of the keyboard was called
“predictive” in the keyboard settings. Turning predictive off removes the
extra line, so that solved the immediate problem, but not the longer term
one (which can only really be fixed by either “pinning" the header bar
during a “pan” or knowing where the top of the keyboard is for appropriate
DG resizing.) I'll make a feature request in the QCC.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all,
Mark

Thanks Panos, I appreciate the quick response. That works reasonably well
except the card has a header bar and using the “pan” option moves the
header bar off screen as well, which unfortunately hides some important
header bar controls. If we could “stick” the header bar while panning the
dg (so it visually looks like it is sliding underneath the header bar) that
would be the best solution. I might try and see if there is a way to do
that. Otherwise for now I’ll just hard code a resize of the dg when the
keyboard is activated and adjust the code using the new iPhoneDeviceModel
function to fine tune it for different screen sizes.
You should probably be on vacation now, so enjoy your well deserved time off!!

Hello Mark,
What about using:
mobileSetKeyboardDisplay "pan"
See the dictionary for more details.
Cheers,
Panos

It seems the keyboard in iOS 15 has gained some height and that is causing
a problem.
Scenario. My UI is primarily a datagrid. Fill it with 8 items and the next
one added will cause the keyboard to cover the row. The previous solution
has been to redraw the datagid so it occupies the space above the keyboard
(and then scroll the new line into view). This worked fine as long as the
KB always occupied a fixed amount of space (height). The new one in iOS 15
appears to be approximately 1 row of keys taller, this row being filled
with blank slots for word guesses while you type (an option I would not
even know how to make use of).
Solutions: one option is to simply redraw the datagrid to be above the new
keyboard height. Problem is I have been hard coding this (ie. changing the
bottom of the keyboard from 452 (activated) to 613 (deactivated) as
required). This is less than ideal because as I have now witnessed in iOS
15.x the keyboard can expand to have 1 or 2 extra rows above the keys. ie.
the size/height of the keyboard is now dynamic. Ideally I would be able to
query the height of the keyboard, or the amount of available screen space,
so that I could adjust the bottom of my datagrid appropriately.
Has anyone else been looking into this issue and how have you resolved it?
Thanks
Mark
