Is there a way to enable the touchscreen keyboard with Web Browser Module?

Maybe:  
[https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/system.gui.setTouchscreenModeEnabled](https://docs.inductiveautomation.com/display/DOC79/system.gui.setTouchscreenModeEnabled)  
would have the information you seek to give it a try.  
There is also a WEBDEV module, in addition to the Web Browser module.  
More information may be found in the manuals and/or knowledgebase or via e-mail ( read policies first ) at:

Please also let others know about the results you get, good or bad. I am expecting your result would be much different if you had said in the Perspective module of Ignition 8.  
Then there is what _may be a broken link_:

Or you might just need to be a 'logged on user" to use it.

After trying with different web page ([google.com](http://google.com)) I realized that touchscreen keyboard actually works with the web browser module. It’s just the ‘TrakSYS’ web app we are trying to integrate that does not make the keyboard pop-up when touching a ‘text area’ element.

Thank you VERY, VERY much for saying so. I was just looking at the keyboard width setting under properties in the Vision Client Launch videos, ( Designer \> Menu Project \>dropdown Client User Interface ) & wondering if that had been adjusted. Instead, I will tag this post so that the TrakSYS issue might be added to the Knowledgebase.  
( That is under the support menu )  
[https://support.inductiveautomation.com](https://support.inductiveautomation.com) then choose Knowledgebase  
It is truly good to know that others share, so that we can all learn.
