In Firemonkey you can manage the virtualkeyboard on your mobile applications.

if you need that the keyboard not autoshow in your application when a text box is selected you can add this code:

obviusly to enable the virtual keyboard:

so if you have the virtualkeyboard enabled and you want to hide when and edit control is focused you can use this procedure that i found in stackoverflow AT THIS LINK:

ANOTHER WAY IS TO USE THE EMBARCADERO PLATFORMSERVICE:



When you connect a bluethoot or usb barcode reader, or a phisycal keyboard to your Android device, your application never show the virtualkeyboard if you don’t change some settings on Android.
Tho show the virtualkeyboard even you have a barcode scanner connected you need to change this settings:

On Android 5.0

Languages and Input > Current keyboard > Turn “Hardware Show Input Methods” ON

On Android 8.0 and Higher

System > Languages and Input > Physical Keyboard > Turn “Show virtual keyboard” ON

If your system is in Italian go to:

Impostazioni –> Gestione Generale –> Lingua e Inserimento –> Tastiere Fisica –> Mostra tastiera su schermo
