Hi, This is actually question. I have HMI display without keyboard/numpad. What are my options of having on-screen keyboard beside your framework, while my TwinCAT HMI app is in full screen? Is there any built in on-screen keyboard supporting HMI TF2000? Windows has some keyboard itself, but it doesn't show up automatically when you press on input. Is it currently the only way(to manually show up TcHmiKeyboard or use your AutoKB framework) to have keyboard in our TwinCAT HMI applications?

Thanks for sharing your implementation.

Update hmi to the last version, it has system keyboard implemented. Set it up in the configuration window, next to variable mapping and users list. It lacks password hiding and doesn't show limits (v 1.12.760.37), but I'm confident that'll improve in the future.

Thanks, indeed they now have system keyboard. Without password mask and limits it's little use for me. 2 more questions...

Thanks

Hehe I was aiming for a nice user experience and having big characters should have been nr 1, good point🙂. Both is possible.

Would it be possible to increase the font size of entered value? [image: image] https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/298480/243941236-a62cd7a4-fe36-436e-b4cd-47f501d0055f.png

Would it be possible to have a title for each input component? The source can be for example a lookup table based on component ID.

Thanks
