I remember having it working on real android devices with SDL_StartTextInput
(). I can't say anything about emulators though. You aren't accidentally
using one configured with "hardware keys" or "hardware keyboard" or whatever
it was called? In that case I could imagine you would never see the on-
screen keyboard ;-)

Předmět: [SDL] Android Keyboard not showing

"
Hello
I am looking for a solution for a problem since weeks and cannot find a
working solution.
I am programming Apps for Android with SDL2 and C/C++ with some JNI calls.
But I cannot get the keyboard showing up in the Emulator. I tried using SDL
functions and Java functions but it has no effect.
Do you know how to open the android keyboard with an SDL renderer?
SDL_StartTextInput () does not seem to work.

Thank you in advance

Aw thank you!

per default, hardware keyboard is activated. It is labeled with "Enable
keyboard input" but is meant as "Enable hardware keyboard input". So it
was quite misleading.

Thank you so much!

Mit freundlichen GrÌßen
