GUILayout text field: How do i tell it not to record "enter?"

[szomaza]

Please reply how to make this work on Android and actually on both at the same time so the app can be built for both.

Hi,

 I don't own an android unfortunatly, so i can't test myself, but I would suspect that indeed if you replace with UNITY_ANDROID it should work

 Have you tried?

No, not yet. I am not brave enough for such hacks, thus the reason I use playmaker instead of coding.
But now that you are holding my hand, I'll try.

Hi,

 Simply replace UNITY_IOS with UNITY_ANDROID, you can do this! 

going into coding isn't such a big deal, you are working with Unity, one of the most complex system, however you see this, it may be easy and productive, but the various concepts, especially in a 3d environment is not an easy thing to digest, so from this to coding, the step is very small. Give it a go, it will free you, and PlayMaker will still be totally worse it, even if you know coding, it will become the enabler combination for you to do anything you want! I mean it.

 Bye,

Thanks a bunch for the encouraging words! :-)
Must be wizardry, as the action just works on Android by simply replacing UNITY_IOS with UNITY_ANDROID.

It is great, now I can open whatever keyboard I want.

The problem is that I am using a GUILayoutTextField and when the player clicks that, some keyboard is automatically opened.
Problem is that I don't have a chance in these cases to use the Open Device Key Board action as the keyboards are opened up automatically by tapping into the text field.

I first guessed the type of keyboard to be used is coded into the action as the other one the GUILayoutPasswordField opens a slightly different keyboard.
So I thought I would use my newly found coding superpowers but could not find "touchscreenkeyboardtype" in anywhere else except in the Open Device Key Board action.
http://docs.unity3d.com/ScriptReference/TouchScreenKeyboardType.html

Where/how is it specified what type of keyboard those GUILayout fields should open when the user taps into them?

Well, anyway I got rid of the GUILayoutText fields so now I can use the Open Device Keyboard.
It works nicely on Android now.

How do I make it work for iOS too?
Can I add "UNITY_IOS OR UNITY_ANDROID" to the script so it will use that same code on both?

Hi,

 very good!

Code: [Select]

#if UNITY_IOS || UNITY_ANDROID
that's the OR  -> ||

  Oh yes, thanks!
