TCD.Controls.Keyboard

An on screen keyboard for UWP apps on Windows IoT

Notes

The control is based on the DigitalSignage UWP app from the UWP samples (https://ms-iot.github.io/content/en-US/win10/samples/DigitalSignage.htm).

Multiple bugs were adressed in comparison to the original

  • input injects directly into target TextBox/PasswordBox instead of OutputString property
  • the Content property of the [ key was fixed
  • spacing between keys subtituted with black margin to prevent unwanted unfocusing
  • IsTabStop="False" on all keys causes focus to remain at the TextBox

New features were introduced

  • symbols for Tab, Capslock, Shift, Backspace, Return
  • keyboard layout
    • Shift+SPACE can toggle the keyboard layout between German/English
    • InitialLayout property of the control to ... guess what.
    • KeyAssignmentSet.cs was restructured to allow for additional keyboard layouts
  • IsEnabled property of all keys regulates activation/deactivation when a TextBox is focused/unfocused

Usage

<oks:OnScreenKeyBoard x:Name="keyboard" InitialLayout="German" Margin="20" />

Register all textboxes and password boxes with the keyboard. (The keyboard subscribes to GotFocus and LostFocus.)

// in your MainPage constructor 
keyboard.RegisterTarget(textBox1); 
keyboard.RegisterTarget(textBox2); 
keyboard.RegisterTarget(passwordBox1);

Result

This is what it looks like:
