[Android-development] Height of Software Keyboard on Android Devices

[Robert Iakobashvili]

Gentlemen,
The workaround found is:

1. to read the height of the main-window if it full-screen
    when keyboard is off ( It could be enforced if required by
    QInputMethod* inputMethod = QGuiApplication::inputMethod();
inputMethod->hide();)

2. to read the height of the main-window when the keyboard is on:
    i.e. in handling of inputMethodEvent(QInputMethodEvent * e);


3. Subtract the result of 1 and 2.


Hope it will be helpful.

Take care. Best.
Robert
