| Hey guys, is there a way to use the build in functions for Android, iPhone and Windows 7 phone for the virtual keyboard? I'd like to have a simple text field where the player can enter his/her name for some kind of a highscore list. How would you do that? |
| ||
| Alright, will add that natively for Android and iPhone and will post the code for a module. |
| ||
| What is the saying? Necessity is the mother of invention. |

| LOL, indeed. Of course we could reinvent the wheel and code our own keyboard for Monkey but I guess users prefer the way it is already included. Of course this won't work for HTML5, Flash and GLFW then but that ok at least for me. |

| You guys provide a great service to the community. Thanks to everyone. One of the reason I stick with the Blitz Community. |

| Of course this won't work for HTML5, Flash and GLFW then but that ok at least for me. Why not? Surely HTML5 and Flash would use the virtual keyboard the browser brings up? |
| ||
| Didn't know that a browser has a virtual keyboard yet... |
| ||
| Never thought about it... so you say that there is no way to take input from virtual keyboard on Android/iOS? We need to get player's name somehow :D |
| ||
| No, there is no way yet. |
