Avalonia 11 and the Windows 10 on-screen keyboard

248 views Asked by At

I'm trying to get the native Windows 10 on-screen keyboard to work with Avalonia 11. There seems to be no documentation about this subject, making me unsure if it's supported at all. I have seen chinese/japanese users using their respective IME, but with no mention on how they got it to open.

I've seen some minor discussions that mention setting InputMethod.IsInputMethodEnabled, but that does not seem to have any effect. I've seen others discuss implementing ITextInputMethodImpl to implement custom logic. In Avalonia 11 the methods in that interface are all declared internal and marked obsolete.

Focusing a text input field in another application, such as notepad, pops up the OSK without issue.

Is this a supported thing for Avalonia 11 at all?
