On screen keyboard when using system.gui.passwordBox(

Ignition

Hi all,

I created a popup using system.gui.passwordBox() that does require a password for entry. However, when I run this in the client, there isn’t any on screen keyboard that shows up with it. A on screen keyboard shows up for my other inputs but not this one. Any advice?

Cheers,

Alex

At the moment, this is the code I have so far…

password = system.gui.passwordBox(“Please enter the password.”)
if password == “pass”:
system.nav.openWindow(“Admin”)

Passwordbox is a modal input. The on screen keyboard is a modal input. Fundamentally they cannot coexist.

You could, depending on the system flags, opt to use system.gui.showTouchscreenKeyboard in password mode instead of system.gui.passwordBox.
