#Qt virtualkeyboard code#
So if you find something in my QML code that could be done better, then please tell me or send me a pull request.Pacman -S mingw-w64-x86_64-qt5-virtualkeyboard 📋 File: SHA256: 8ff67acfb65907765d39d0e678a376d7d130079cda2a2e0fb31d365057f351be Last Packager: CI (msys2/msys2-autobuild/253f8b8c/3024556570) Build Date: 19:43:33 Signed By: Christoph Reiter Signature Date: 06:00:42 Package Size: 2.43 MB Installed Size: 6.91 MB Keep in mind that I'm a QML newbie and that my QML is far from beeing perfect. But I think it is a starting point for people that need to implement virtual keyboard support for QML applications.
This implementation is far from feature complete. I only did some minor modifications to run the example with my Virtual Keyboard implementation instead of the Qt Enterprise Virtual Keyboard. The example application in examples/qmlapp has been copied from the Qt Virtual Keyboard example. So I have to say a big thank you to Tomasz Olszak for providing a nice virtual keyboard mockup. character preview popup, or automatic scrolling of flickable elements if keyboard overlaps focused input element). I added a little bit of functionality (i.e. Long story short, I simply copied his code and modified it, to enable integration into embedded QML applications without window manager. The UI of Tomasz implementation was completely QML based - so it was perfectly suited for integration into QML applications. So it seems to be the right way for implementing a virtual keyboard. Interesting for me was the fact, that he also implemented QPlatformInputContextPlugin and QPlatformInputContext to provide its on screen keyboard. He did a virtual keyboard mockup for Qt applications on systems with a window manager (Windows or Linux Desktop). I googled a little bit to find a similar open source solution and found the fantastic blog post from Tomasz Olszak. They implemented QPlatformInputContextPlugin and QPlatformInputContext interfaces. The documentation also comes with a nice technical guide that shows how they implemented the virtual keyboard.
There is a nice solution for Qt Enterprise version: Qt Virtual Keyboard. I quickly realized that an important essential piece was missing for entering text and values: a virtual on screen keyboard for embedded QML applications - that means for applications without a window manager like X11 or Wayland. I started learning QML to create an example application for my Beaglebone. I'm a great fan of the Beaglebone Black embedded Linux device and I just ordered a capacitive touchscreen device for my bone. I'm an experienced Qt developer, but I'm a complete newbie when it comes to QML programming.

This video is a screen capture of the QtFreeVirtualKeyboard running on a Windows PC:Īs soon as you implement your first QML application for an embedded touchscreen device, you will notice, that the open source version of Qt lacks a virtual on screen keyboard. The following video shows the QtFreeVirtualKeyboard running on my Beaglebone Black: A QML based on screen virtual keyboard for embedded QML applications.
