Question

I’ve searched Google for about 1,5h now and i can’t find a good answer.
Is it possible to display the Soft Keyboard when debugging using ADL?
If i use the existing properties I still don’t see it.

I want to check if my layout looks well when the Soft Keyboard appears, but for some reason I don’t see it coming in ADL (Adobe Debug Launcher).
I don’t have a tablet to test it on for now so that isn’t a solution.

Am i doing something wrong whereby I don’t see the soft keyboard or doesn’t it exist in ADL?

Answer 1

ADL is just the Flex debugger program. When I use ADL to launch my app on an Android device; there are no issues getting the soft keyboard to show up. When I use ADL to launch an app in an emulator, I have never seen the soft keyboard come up. This is not supported with the emulator included with Flex / Flash Builder.

In my experience the availability of the soft keyboard depends on the context you’re running the app in (Debugger vs Device) and has nothing to do w/ ADL.

Does that answer your question?
