[Interest] TextEdit and virtual keyboard

[VStevenP]

As an aside, when you use a _TextInput_ on iOS, it does auto-launch the iOS soft keypad when you tap on the TextInput.  Pretty convenient.  Maybe TextEdit should be enhanced to work like TextInput; maybe it should auto-launch the platform-specific keypad like TextInput does.

Hi and thanks.
 
I’ve found the answer: qApp->inputMethod()->show();

There 
is not one that is included in Qt. You can make one. Here are some links that 
show how.

http://doc.qt.digia.com/QtVirtualKeyboard/qtvirtualkeyboard-enterprise-virtualkeyboard-virtualkeyboard-virtualkeyboard-qml.html

http://qt-project.org/forums/viewthread/1486

Or 
you can try to reuse one that was created for a specific platform, such as 
meego.
