Qt 5.6 android qml webview handle keyboard: HELP! BUG in WebView:!

adderly

Hey guys,
i have a problem with the webview and virtual keyboard (android's).

I have a fullscreen Webview which loads correctly:

WebView{
anchors.fill:parent
url:"..."
}

The problem is when i need to handle the size of this webview taking into account if the keyboard have been shown. If it were a normal qml control it would be a simple onFocus handling, but then i focus into a text field in the loaded webpage there is no way for me to know if the keyboard is shown and the size of it.
I think Qt.inputMethod should be updated even if the event was not triggered a Qt control.
To put it in a clearer way, i need to know the size of the shown keyboard to handle the webview's size because the keyboard overlaps the webview.

Please help!

----- BUG ------
The Qt.inputMethod does not recieves changes if the focus is on WebView. Havent tested many cases, but it applies to the problem presented above.

To solve it for android it was as simple as adding this android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" to the activity property in the AndroidManifest.xml.
I think Qt for android is highly untested, i have this luck to get the bugs in my face.

Maybe calling it a bug is incorrect, more like " a hidden feature only encountered by those lost souls called early implementers. "

Its a bug, in the documentation. :P

Hi,

AFAIK, the QtWebView module is TP so that's the kind of thing that may have slipped through. You should take a look at the bug report system to see if there's already something about it. If not then please consider opening a new report.
