Occulus Quest - Input.GetKeyDown() not firing when TMPInputField is active

Hey everyone,

I'm developing a VR App for Occulus Quest, using a Keyboard connected over Bluetooth.
The user writes into a TMPInputField, which is activated via script:

Code (CSharp):

1. public TMP_InputField inputField;
2. ...
3. inputField.ActivateInputField();

Simultaniously, I would like to use

Code (CSharp):

1. Input.GetKeyDown()

to keep track of every key on the keyboard. This works fine when I run my project in the editor - I can type into the InputField, and the

Code (CSharp):

1. Input.GetKeyDown()

events are being fired.

However, running the same code on my Occulus Quest does not work - when the InputField is focused, I can type into it, but no events are being fired.
I verifyed this by using

Code (CSharp):

1. inputField.DeactivateInputField();

- and the events are being fired.

I could imagine developing a workaround for this by manually editing the

Code (CSharp):

1. inputField.text

for every key being pressed - seems kinda brute force though.

Am I missing something basic or is this a bug (Occulus Quest Bluetooth device support still being an experimental feature) ?

Thank you for your time

 

Did you ever figure this out? I am currently trying to figure out why e.g. `UnityEngine.Input.GetKeyDown` does not seem to be working with the system keyboard on the Oculus Quest 2, also while focused on a `UIElements.TextField` which I think has a TextMeshPro `InputField` actually handling the input.
