AHilberink Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 22, 2015 #1 Hi, Can someone tell me if it is possible to show a Hide button on the soft keyboard? I want to hide the keyboard, without building an event to do so. I remember seeing a hide key on some keyboards. My input type is numbers. Best regards, André

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Sep 24, 2015 #4 There should be a hide button when you set ForceDone to true. However different keyboard apps can behave in different ways. You can add a "hide" button to the layout and call IME.HideKeyboard to hide the keyboard. Upvote 0

Hi Erel, There is no Hide key, only the GER. key (Dutch keyboard) which is on the position of the Enter. This key hides the keyboard, but it is a bad translation (shortcutted) and my users (60+) don't understand. Some keyboards have on the left corner a button especialy to hide the keyboard. I hoped there would be one. Why this question: Sometimes the keyboard is above an entry field. To check the already value it would be nice the drop the keyboard. Is there a way to hide the keyboard by clicking/hitting outside the board, somewhere on the form? For now, I will test with a "hide" button on the form and let my users trying it. Thanks.
