When open keyboard, automatically closed

[juanlabrador]

I receive in console

W/IInputConnectionWrapper(14786): getTextBeforeCursor on inactive InputConnection W/IInputConnectionWrapper(14786): getSelectedText on inactive InputConnection W/IInputConnectionWrapper(14786): getTextAfterCursor on inactive InputConnection W/IInputConnectionWrapper(14786): beginBatchEdit on inactive InputConnection W/IInputConnectionWrapper(14786): endBatchEdit on inactive InputConnection

The keyboard not stay open when open, any idea? If disable o remove the listen, the keyboard stay open.

Wow thats interesting. Can you share any code snipped you have, confirm the version of the package, and the device you are using?

I am having this same problem as well, but it didn't seem to persist on iOS, only Android.

[MisterJimson]

I would love a reproducible sample to help work on this.

[ajaygautam]

I am facing this issue too - on iOS. Have not tried on Android. Keyboard shows up, then disappears VERY quick. Have not been able to track whats causing this.

@MisterJimson here is this issue reproduced: https://github.com/ajaygautam/flutter_repro_keyboard_dismiss_issue

Relevant details have been added to the readme in the repo. I have added you as a collaborator to the repo. Please do feel free to commit changes.

Primary code segments:

class RouteWithKeyboardVisibilityBuilder extends StatelessWidget {
  final String title;

  const RouteWithKeyboardVisibilityBuilder({Key key, this.title = "RouteWithKeyboardVisibilityBuilder"})
      : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return KeyboardVisibilityBuilder(builder: (context, isKeyboardVisible) {
      print("=-=-=-=-=-= Building with keyboard visibility set to: --||$isKeyboardVisible||-- for screen with title $title =-=-=-=-=-=");
      return Material(
          child: Container(
              color: Colors.blue[200],
              child: Center(
                  child: Column(
                      crossAxisAlignment: CrossAxisAlignment.center,
                      mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
                      children: [
                    Text(title),
                    SizedBox(height: 16),
                    WidgetWithTextEdit(),
                    SizedBox(height: 16),
                    BackNextButtonRow()
                  ]))));
    });
  }
}

class WidgetWithTextEdit extends StatelessWidget {
  final Key key = UniqueKey();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    final screenSize = MediaQuery.of(context).size;

    return SizedBox(
      height: screenSize.height * 0.1,
      width: screenSize.width * 0.67,
      child: new TextFormField(
        key: key,
        decoration: InputDecoration(hintText: "Tap to Enter Data"),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Would appreciate any help / info. Let me know if you want me to try anything.

@tmthecoder were you able to resolve this?

Not yet, I'm still awaiting a resolution

[ajaygautam]

So... looks like package keyboard_visibility does not cause this behavior - atleast in the test app at: https://github.com/ajaygautam/flutter_repro_keyboard_dismiss_issue

I have updated the app to support both keyboard_visibility and flutter_keyboard_visibility. In main.dart, look for switchToKeyboardVisibility... is set true... the app will use keyboard_visibility package. If false, the app will use flutter_keyboard_visibility.

Going to try this with my actual app now.

Thanks

[MisterJimson]

@ajaygautam can you provide steps to reproduce the issue with your example repo? I am running it and have tried switching switchToKeyboardVisibility false.

I am not seeing any issues. I can clock next and tap in the text field and the keyboard shows correctly.

[ajaygautam]

That is strange! It seems to be working fine now. Well... I guess its ok to close this...

Ok. I am going to leave it open as there is still and issue with Android it seems from the other people in this thread.

[MisterJimson]

4.0.4-beta.0 is available with a new Android implementation using the fairly new WindowInsetsCompat features.

Any feedback is appreciated before I merge this into a main version. I suspect it may help resolve this issue.

[MisterJimson]

Should be closed in 4.0.4, but I had trouble reproducing. Feel free to reopen with more info.

[haliknihudas666]

Before the flutter 2.0 update arrive this code is working fine but after the flutter 2.0 update and this package update to support null safety, the keyboard now closes when transitioning to a new layout that has 3 columns from only 2 columns

https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/6942408/117092377-b0521f80-ad90-11eb-8c4a-967f24cf4278.mp4

this is the code I used to replicate the problem: https://github.com/haliknihudas666/flutter_keyboardVisibility_demo

please reopen this issue

[BrunoC96]

[maxstubbersfield]

Hi there, I had the same issue and I was able to fix it by creating a GlobalKey<FormState> and using that key with the TextField.

This StackOverflow post has the details: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51320692/flutter-keyboard-disappears-immediately-when-editing-my-text-fields

[tudor07]

I have the exact same problem. When keyboard is shown I remove a big widget from the widget tree, that causes the keyboard to be dismissed.

Edit: I found an workaround. If I add a GlobalKey to my TextField the keyboard no longer dismisses.
