Hi,

I have a request.

Chromium (the current version used in the WebBrowser anyway) has the annoying feature of starting Windows virtual/onscreen keyboard when clicking an input field. This only happens on Windows 8+.
We would very much like to avoid that.

My request is an option somewhere in the WebBrowser to FORCE disable the onscreen keyboard.
Chromium has a method called SetKeyboardShowOverride, I assume this can be used for controlling the keyboard.

Right now we disable/kill the osk service on Windows and start it again when our application exits.
We would like to avoid this aggressive approach that doesn't always work either.

So an option or any workaround is much appreciated :)

Thanks

Hi,

I believe this function is only for ChromeOS. It is called in this file. The code is only called when OS_CHROMEOS is defined.

Thanks!

Ok, didn't realize that, too bad.

Thanks for the reply.
