Problem with virtual keyboard in WASM

apaczenko1993

Hello
I have created program in QML but I have problem with virtual keyboard. When I compile application with MinGW, the keyboard work well, input capture works. But when I compile app with WebAssembly the virtual keyboard don't work, in debug info I have information that "input method is not set". How can I fix this?
My Qt is version is 6.5.3, EMS version is 3.1.25 like is written in doc.

My code in QML:

InputPanel {
                id: inputPanel
                z: 1
                x: 0
                y: window.height
                width: window.width / 1.3
                externalLanguageSwitchEnabled: false

                anchors.left: parent.left

                states: State {
                    name: "visible"
                    when: inputPanel.active
                    PropertyChanges {
                        target: inputPanel
                        y: window.height - inputPanel.height
                    }
                }

                transitions: Transition {
                    from: ""
                    to: "visible"
                    reversible: true
                    ParallelAnimation {
                        NumberAnimation {
                            properties: "y"
                            duration: 450
                            easing.type: Easing.InOutQuad
                        }
                    }
                }
            }

            TextInput {

For other persons, in pro file:

static {
    QT += svg
    QTPLUGIN += qtvirtualkeyboardplugin
}

and in main.cpp

#include <QtVirtualKeyboard>
qputenv("QT_IM_MODULE", QByteArray("qtvirtualkeyboard"));

with this VKB works well

Hello @apaczenko1993, WASM uses static linking so you must manually add the VKB plugin:

qt_import_plugins(my_app_target
    INCLUDE_BY_TYPE platforminputcontexts Qt::QVirtualKeyboardPlugin
)

See https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-123308

Hi JKSH, you mean add in cmakeLists file but I will have second question, how it should look when I use qmake, not cmake?
