Android Question Open the Soft KeyBoard to the Numeric Keys

[MrKim]

I really really really would like to open the soft keyboard but have it open with the numeric keypad as the default. 90% of the time our customers only need the numeric.

OR even better. My Samsung Galaxy has the numeric keys above the Alpha. I would love that.

It is determined by the EditText InputType property. You can set it with the designer.

Sorry, it was late and I was tired. Not Clear. I need BOTH Nums and Text (INPUT_TYPE_TEXT), but when the keyboard opens want it to be displaying the numbers.

I am not looking for a new or custom keyboard, just want the standard keyboard to open to the numeric section without the user having to select it.

Actually, Erel gave me an even better solution in another post.

ValueTxt.InputType = Bit.Or(ValueTxt.InputType, 128) 'VARIATION_PASSWORD

This removes Auto Suggest and replaces it with the numbers so you have numbers and letters without having to switch - perfect for me!
