Barcode reading and Analog numeric virtual keyboard

[pmanuel]

Hello to all.

I´m trying to read from a barcode reader into a Analog Numeric object. I set the focus to the analog numeric as was already suggested in this forum. My problem is that I can´t get rid of the virtual keyboard that pops up and I can not deactivate the virtual keyboard for all the application because there are fields where I need it for user input. Do you have any suggestion how to solve this issue?

Thanks

You can use the Windows TextBox control. That will not popup the virtual keyboard. You will have to use script to move the focus as well as handle moving the text out of the text box and into a tag.

I realize this is an old thread but there is an easier way that i have just found

by making the analog numeric textbox a read only and adding a click event in the script you can call a popup without opening the keyboard.

I am doing this so the user can touch the textbox and the pop up is shown, they select a value off a button and that value is returned to the textbox so they can only choose preset values. I found it much easier than using a windows form textbox and adding extra script to what i already had.

Hope its useful to someone.
