What happens here if you are tabbing through multiple fields?

If we have something like:
StackLayout
- Entry
- Entry
- Entry
If we have the focus on the first entry, and pass the focus to the second one:
- The first Entry loses focus and the keyboard closes.
- The second Entry gains focus so the keyboard is reopened.
That is, the keyboard would close and open in a short time.

I don't feel like that's the behavior we'd want here. If we want to maintain some level of behavior here with MAUI then I would say at the controls level if the user calls "FOCUS" then we open the keyboard but then that's it.

Keyboard visibility was very broken in XF. I don't think we should just bring this code straight over. Someone also logged this same bug on XF against iOS xamarin/Xamarin.Forms#8952

To help focus and move faster, we're going to have fewer open PRs and focus on the ones we'll be working on in each release. This PR is not included in the next release so I close it for now. I will reopen it and adapt to changes later. |
