M mtechteam Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 11, 2018 #1 On an iPad within the designer I can assign a numeric keyboard to show when in a text field. It shows the same keyboard size but shows numbers and punctuation instead of letters (same as if I had pressed the 123 button in the lower left of the keyboard). I am creating a text field programmatically that accepts only numbers. Is it possible to make the keyboard layout the same as what I have done in the designer? Setting the Keyboard type does not seem to have any affect (does it matter at what point in the creation process I set this parameter?)

M mtechteam Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 11, 2018 #3 I understand that there is not a numbers only keypad. The default keypad that shows in iPad has letters on it. If you press the button in the lower left it changes to numbers and punctuation. I can set it to show this (numbers and punctuation) directly by setting the keyboard type in the designer for a text field that I define. I was wondering if there was a way to set this using code when I create a text field programmatically. Upvote 0

M mtechteam Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 12, 2018 #5 I thought I tried that. Perhaps I just needed a good night's sleep. It is working now. It is in a panel that I show and hide. Perhaps I put the setting after the RequestFocus for the text field. At any rate, thank you for your patience with me. Upvote 0
