Keyboard Input

Hey everyone,

I just downloaded the Beta last night so forgive me if I've missed a thread or document that talks about this. (if there is please direct me to it!)

I was using Unity's GUI to do some basic tests on the Vita, but using textfield doesn't pull up the keyboard, and trying to use TouchScreenKeyboard.Open(string) sporadically loads the keyboard for a frame and then closes it.

Has anyone figured out a way to use the keyboard?

Thanks!

 

This does it for me, i simplified it slightly so its easier to understand and doesn't have all my project specific crap with it 8)

Code (csharp):

1. private var keyboard : TouchScreenKeyboard;
2. private var inputField = "";  //text input variable
3.  
4. function OnGUI ()
5. {
6. if (GUI.Button(Rect (40*widthScale, 235*heightScale, 365*widthScale, 45*heightScale), inputField))
7. {
8.    var keyboard = TouchScreenKeyboard.Open(inputField, TouchScreenKeyboardType.Default);
9. }
10.  
11. if (keyboard)
12. {
13.    if (keyboard.active)
14.    {
15.      inputField = keyboard.text;
16.    }
17. }
18.  
19. }

 

Awesome, that was exactly what I need. Thank you! I guess I should have followed the example with the documentation rather than just trying my own thing...
