auto-open keybord for first listview textinput item

[armin2]

hi,

i try to programatically open android‘s keyboard after my dialog opened.
that dialog contains a list view, that holds a delegate, that contains of rectangles and textinputs.

what‘s the qml way of auto-showing keyboard and allowing users text input to be put into first textinput in list?

i already managed opening keyboard by showKeyboard() but it does not put characters into any textviews...

regards, armin

@armin2 hi
make sure your text input has focus property set to true

TextInput {
  id: textInput
  focus: true
}

focus is set, but doesnt work. keystrokes just get lost.

@armin2

ListView {
    id:myView
    Component.onCompleted: {
         var firstItem = myView.itemAtIndex(0)
         if(firstItem)
             firstItem.forceActiveFocus()
    }
    ......
    ....
}
