Qt Virtual Keyboard and TextInput

DuBu

Hi all,

since the virtual keyboard has no ESC key or the like to cancel editing in a TextInput I tried to use the Qt.inputMethod.visible property to detect when a user closes the virtual keyboard without pressing the return key before. But unfortunately this signal gets emitted before the accept signal. So there's no way to differ a cancel from an accept by catching the Qt.inputMethod.visibleChanged signal.

TextInput {
  id: textInput
  onAccepted: console.log("accepted")

  Connections {
    target: Qt.inputMethod
    onVisibleChanged: {
      console.log("inputMethodVisibleChanged:", target.visible)
    }
  }
}

Output:

qml: inputMethodVisibleChanged: false
qml: accepted

Is there any other way to implement an editing canceled event?

Regards
