The Android system shows an on-screen keyboard — known as a soft input method — when a text field in your UI receives focus. The keyboard takes about half the screen; in other words, you only have half of the screen to display any information. Utilizing this space could be very useful if you have any important content to show, but sometimes it could be more convenient to display the keyboard automatically — it all depends on the UX.
Today, we’ll talk about Sketchware’s new Keyboard visibility feature in 1.3 version update!

1.Keyboard Visibility feature in Sketchware
Why was “Keyboard Visibility” feature added?
EditText is primarily used for taking user input in Android Programming, and when it is focused, it forces the keyboard to pop up. Before the 1.3 update in Sketchware, EditText was automatically focused, and the keyboard was forced to pop up when EditText was present in the activity (even if the EditText was disabled). We saw this as an issue for apps that would initially start with disabled EditText since keyboard popped up even if the user was unable to input anything into it. This would limit the developers from providing different user experiences; some may want to start the application with the keyboard hidden or automatically visible by default.
