Keyboard submit is off the screen on android Wear 2 device.

[ibrierley]

Problem is on an Android Wear app, mobile is fine.

There is no way to enter any input, as when the keyboard appears, submit is off the screen. Example...

return MaterialApp(
    home: Scaffold(
      body: new TextField(
        keyboardType: TextInputType.multiline,
        maxLines: null,
      ),
    )
  );

This is not flutter specific, this happens to any app not using WearOS' keyboard specifically.

If you try installing a normal android app (say, discord) it will have the same problem.

This requires specific support for WearOS devices, so I don't expect it to be supported by flutter anytime soon.

[ibrierley]

Just trying to understand, I see Messages and Contacts for example can run a keyboard (which pops up the option of voice or keyboard first). Is this somehow not available to normal apps (irrespective of flutter)?

[miyoyo]

The mechanism wearOS uses to show a keyboard is not the same as "regular android", so normal apps will look wierd.

I'll take a screenshot of discord if I have time today.

EDIT: It does seem discord improved on that, since you can now login normally (you get correct keyboards)

However, the main "chat" keyboard is still broken

Maybe showing a keyboard that's not linked to a text field does that? Since the space lost at the top is exactly as high as the size of the black fields

Confirmed working fields: Login Password "Start a conversation"

Partially Broken fields: The chat field

Non-working field: The 2FA entry

Is there a solution ? I hope this problem will be solved. Hope that flutter supports wear OS...

It works

Doesn't work Here

Normal textfields still don't work and can produce code continuously

I tried the same code on win and MacOS 10.15.6

Different situations have occurred, which can run normally on win, but it appears as shown in the figure on MacOS

Is this related to running a virtual machine system

They have the same operating environment

Fluent version 1.20.3

wearos api28 android9

Revisiting this issue and trying out the given code sample using latest stable version running on wearOS emulator, tapping on the textfield opens the keyboard but submit / done button isn't visible:

runnable code

``` import 'package:flutter/foundation.dart'; import 'package:flutter/material.dart'; void main() { runApp(const MyApp()); } class MyApp extends StatelessWidget { const MyApp({super.key}); @override Widget build(BuildContext context) { return MaterialApp( title: 'Flutter Demo', home: Scaffold( resizeToAvoidBottomInset: true, appBar: AppBar( title: const Text('Home Page'), ), body: Center( child: TextField( keyboardType: TextInputType.multiline, maxLines: null, decoration: InputDecoration( ), ), ) ), ); } } ```
