Shows both the default display behavior of the touch keyboard and how that behavior can be customized in a UWP app.

Touch keyboard sample

Shows both the default display behavior of the touch keyboard and how that behavior can be customized in a UWP app.

Note: This sample is part of a large collection of UWP feature samples. You can download this sample as a standalone ZIP file from docs.microsoft.com, or you can download the entire collection as a single ZIP file, but be sure to unzip everything to access shared dependencies. For more info on working with the ZIP file, the samples collection, and GitHub, see Get the UWP samples from GitHub. For more samples, see the Samples portal on the Windows Dev Center.

Specifically, this sample shows how:

  • XAML text controls (such as TextBox, RichTextBox, and PaswordBox) display the touch keyboard by default.
  • Controls derived from XAML text controls display the touch keyboard by default.
  • Apps can subscribe to events indicating when the touch keyboard is shown and hidden.
  • Apps can request that the touch keyboard be shown or hidden.
  • Apps can request that the touch keyboard be shown with a particular view.

Note The touch keyboard does not automatically display if a hardware keyboard is connected, or the device is in Desktop mode and "Show the touch keyboard when not in tablet mode and there's no keyboard attached" is set to "Off" in Settings -> Devices -> Typing.

Note The Windows universal samples require Visual Studio to build and Windows 10 to execute.

Note Custom text edit control sample shows how to manage the visibility of the touch keyboard programatically.

To obtain information about Windows 10, go to Windows 10

To obtain information about Microsoft Visual Studio and the tools for developing Windows apps, go to Visual Studio
