[question] how to do cross-platform keyboard handling for Xamarin.Forms ? #7

Closed dodikk closed 7 years ago

dodikk commented 7 years ago

I've been usign this Obj-C library and I'd like to have similar experience in a cross-platform project. Unfortunately, I have not managed to find any component that handles Xamarin.Forms in this manner.

Are there any worthy competitors or PCL wrappers around?

P.S. Sorry if this is a wrong place to ask.

There is nothing that I know about that would work x-platform. Android and UWP have built-in keyboard management in them which already do essentially what this component is doing. Xamarin.Forms also has some built-in tap gestures and autoducking, but it is not exactly the same. FWIW, if you are using Xamarin.Forms, the best advice I would give is to wrap your controls with ScrollViews. This will ensure that the UI can scroll appropriately out of the way, if there is a keyboard that needs to be displayed.
