Allowing Phone Keyboard Input?

Hello!

I have a button, when the user clicks it I would like it to open the mobile keyboard. I'm having trouble finding what the code to activate that. My Button method looks like this so far:

Code (CSharp):

1.     public void UserKeyboardInput()
2.     {
3.         //What's the code for this??
4.     }

Thank you for your time!

Thank you for sharing that. When I put the code in my update method nothing happens though during runtime. The keyboard does not appear (Testing it on PC at the moment)

Here is my code :

Code (CSharp):

1.     public void UserKeyboardInput()
2.     {
3.         TouchScreenKeyboard.Open("", TouchScreenKeyboardType.Default, false, false, true, true);
4.     }

 

Try putting it in OnGUI()

 

Hmmm, I tried but it doesn't seem to activate. I've recorded what my screen looks like when I run the code. I feel like I'm real close, but just missing something small

 

Pretty sure nothing happens on PC, it has to be built to the actual device.

 

Ohhhh OK, I'll have to test it for real then.
Thank you-!

 

hey! i have the same problem, i can't really make the keyboard show when running the game ( also testing on pc ) how do i know if its working or not if it can not be shown on pc? Thanks

 

Touchscreenkeyboard is part of the OS, and thus does not exist on PC.
The only way to test it is to make a build, or use Unity Remote.
