Input Pane v11.1 Preview!

The InputPane allows developers to listen for the platform's input pane (e.g., software keyboard or on-screen keyboard) current state and boundaries.

The InputPane can be access through an instance of TopLevel or Window, for more details on accessing TopLevel please visit TopLevel page:

var inputPane = TopLevel.GetTopLevel(control).InputPane;

примечание

Currently, Avalonia does not automatically adjust root view and scrolling position depending on state of the input pane. Instead, it is recommended for developers to use IInputPane API and adjust their apps accordingly.

Automatic adjustment is planned for future 11.* releases.

Properties

State

The current input pane state. Possible values:

• InputPaneState.Closed
• InputPaneState.Opened

InputPaneState State { get; }

OccludedRect

The current input pane bounds.

Rect OccludedRect { get; }

примечание

Return value is in client coordinates relative to the current top level. Empty rectangle will be returned in case of floating/detached input pane, that is positioned on top of the view.

Events

StateChanged

Occurs when the input pane's state has changed.

event EventHandler<InputPaneStateEventArgs>? StateChanged;

Notably, event arguments include several useful parameters:

• InputPaneStateEventArgs.NewState - new state of the input pane.
• InputPaneStateEventArgs.StartRect - initial bounds of the input pane.
• InputPaneStateEventArgs.EndRect - final bounds of the input pane.
• InputPaneStateEventArgs.AnimationDuration - duration of the input pane's state change animation.
• InputPaneStateEventArgs.Easing - easing of the input pane's state changed animation.

Having AnimationDuration and Easing allows developer to create a transition between two states.
