Description: I am encountering an issue using VKeyboard in my KivyMD application where the virtual key presses do not register correctly, and the input values are not being entered properly into the KivyMD TextField.

Here are the main issues:

Inaccurate Key Press Registration:
- When pressing a key on the virtual keyboard, the key that is actually displayed or registered is different from the key that was pressed.
- For example, when pressing "4" on the virtual keyboard, the application sometimes displays "6" instead.

Failure to Input Correct Values into TextField:
- The values from VKeyboard are not properly reflected in the KivyMD TextField.
- Despite capturing the key press event (on_key_up), the value does not appear correctly in the input field, or it does not get entered at all.

Code Extract:

{
    "title" : "Numeric",
    "description" : "A numeric keypad",
    "cols" : 3,
    "rows": 4,
    "normal_1": [
    ["7", "7", "7", 1],
    ["8", "8", "8", 1],
    ["9", "9", "9", 1]],
    "normal_2": [
    ["4", "4", "4", 1],
    ["5", "5", "5", 1],
    ["6", "6", "6", 1]],
    "normal_3": [
    ["1", "1", "1", 1],
    ["2", "2", "2", 1],
    ["3", "3", "3", 1]],
    "normal_4": [
    ["0", "0", "0", 1],
    [".", ".", ".", 1],
    ["\u232b", null, "backspace", 1]],
    "shift_1": [
    ["7", "7", "7", 1],
    ["8", "8", "8", 1],
    ["9", "9", "9", 1]],
    "shift_2": [
    ["4", "4", "4", 1],
    ["5", "5", "5", 1],
    ["6", "6", "6", 1]],
    "shift_3": [
    ["1", "1", "1", 1],
    ["2", "2", "2", 1],
    ["3", "3", "3", 1]],
    "shift_4": [
    ["0", "0", "0", 1],
    [".", ".", ".", 1],
    ["\u232b", null, "backspace", 1]]
    }

Below is the part of the code dealing with the virtual keyboard (VKeyboard) and the KivyMD TextField:

Issues Summary:

Key Press Mismatch:
- When pressing a key on the VKeyboard, the displayed or registered key is incorrect. For example, pressing "4" may result in "6" being registered.
Input Issue with TextField:
- Even though I am capturing key presses through the on_key_up event, the value is not correctly entered into the KivyMD TextField.

Expected Behavior:

When pressing a key on the virtual keyboard, the correct corresponding value should be displayed in the debug output and accurately entered into the TextField.

Actual Behavior:

The key shown or entered is often incorrect and doesn't match the intended input.
The entered value is not correctly displayed in the TextField.

Environment:

Kivy Version: 2.3.0
KivyMD Version: 2.0.1.dev0
Python Version: 3.9
Platform: Raspberry Pi CM4

Steps to Reproduce:

Set up VKeyboard with a numeric layout (numeric.json) as shown above.
Bind the VKeyboard to a TextField using the focus event (on_focus) to control the visibility of the virtual keyboard.
Run the application and attempt to input numbers through the virtual keyboard.
Observe that the key that is pressed is often incorrectly registered or not properly reflected in the TextField.

Additional Information:

The layout file (numeric.json) used in this example contains a simple numeric keypad layout.
There is no issue when using a physical keyboard.
Debugging information (on_key_up) confirms the mismatch between the key press and the input value.

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you!

Minimal Reproducible Example

This script is a minimal reproducible example of a KivyMD-based graphical user interface (GUI) application. It demonstrates the following features:

Light-themed User Interface: The app uses a light theme with a green primary palette for a clean and simple look.
Main Screen and Navigation: It consists of two main screens - a main screen and an isothermal control screen, managed by a screen manager for easy navigation.
Input Fields with Virtual Keyboard: Users can input temperature, cycle count, and cycle time using text fields. The app uses a virtual numeric keyboard (VKeyboard) that appears when a text field is focused.
Dynamic Layout: The GUI contains multiple buttons for navigation, configuration, and switching between different screens. It also features a back button for easy navigation.
Date-Time Display: The app displays the current date and time, which updates every second.
Button Actions: Buttons such as "Thermal Cycle", "Isothermal", and "Confirm Settings" are provided for user interactions, but the backend functionality is not implemented in this minimal example.

The main purpose of this example is to show how to create a user interface with KivyMD that includes interactive elements such as buttons, text fields, and a virtual keyboard, while ensuring the interface is responsive and user-friendly.

Thank you very much for your helpful suggestion! It solved the issue I was facing. I just wanted to note that it's important to ensure that both Kivy and KivyMD are updated to the latest versions for the solution to work effectively. Thanks again for your assistance!

Here are the main issues:

Inaccurate Key Press Registration:
- When pressing a key on the virtual keyboard, the key that is actually displayed or registered is different from the key that was pressed.
- For example, when pressing "4" on the virtual keyboard, the application sometimes displays "6" instead.

Failure to Input Correct Values into TextField:
- The values from VKeyboard are not properly reflected in the KivyMD TextField.
- Despite capturing the key press event (on_key_up), the value does not appear correctly in the input field, or it does not get entered at all.

Code Extract:

{
    "title" : "Numeric",
    "description" : "A numeric keypad",
    "cols" : 3,
    "rows": 4,
    "normal_1": [
    ["7", "7", "7", 1],
    ["8", "8", "8", 1],
    ["9", "9", "9", 1]],
    "normal_2": [
    ["4", "4", "4", 1],
    ["5", "5", "5", 1],
    ["6", "6", "6", 1]],
    "normal_3": [
    ["1", "1", "1", 1],
    ["2", "2", "2", 1],
    ["3", "3", "3", 1]],
    "normal_4": [
    ["0", "0", "0", 1],
    [".", ".", ".", 1],
    ["\u232b", null, "backspace", 1]],
    "shift_1": [
    ["7", "7", "7", 1],
    ["8", "8", "8", 1],
    ["9", "9", "9", 1]],
    "shift_2": [
    ["4", "4", "4", 1],
    ["5", "5", "5", 1],
    ["6", "6", "6", 1]],
    "shift_3": [
    ["1", "1", "1", 1],
    ["2", "2", "2", 1],
    ["3", "3", "3", 1]],
    "shift_4": [
    ["0", "0", "0", 1],
    [".", ".", ".", 1],
    ["\u232b", null, "backspace", 1]]
    }

Below is the part of the code dealing with the virtual keyboard (VKeyboard) and the KivyMD TextField:

Issues Summary:

Key Press Mismatch:
- When pressing a key on the VKeyboard, the displayed or registered key is incorrect. For example, pressing "4" may result in "6" being registered.
Input Issue with TextField:
- Even though I am capturing key presses through the on_key_up event, the value is not correctly entered into the KivyMD TextField.

Expected Behavior:

When pressing a key on the virtual keyboard, the correct corresponding value should be displayed in the debug output and accurately entered into the TextField.

Actual Behavior:

The key shown or entered is often incorrect and doesn't match the intended input.
The entered value is not correctly displayed in the TextField.

Environment:

Kivy Version: 2.3.0
KivyMD Version: 2.0.1.dev0
Python Version: 3.9
Platform: Raspberry Pi CM4

Steps to Reproduce:

Set up VKeyboard with a numeric layout (numeric.json) as shown above.
Bind the VKeyboard to a TextField using the focus event (on_focus) to control the visibility of the virtual keyboard.
Run the application and attempt to input numbers through the virtual keyboard.
Observe that the key that is pressed is often incorrectly registered or not properly reflected in the TextField.

Additional Information:

The layout file (numeric.json) used in this example contains a simple numeric keypad layout.
There is no issue when using a physical keyboard.
Debugging information (on_key_up) confirms the mismatch between the key press and the input value.

I would appreciate any advice or suggestions on how to resolve this issue. Thank you!

Minimal Reproducible Example

This script is a minimal reproducible example of a KivyMD-based graphical user interface (GUI) application. It demonstrates the following features:

Light-themed User Interface: The app uses a light theme with a green primary palette for a clean and simple look.
Main Screen and Navigation: It consists of two main screens - a main screen and an isothermal control screen, managed by a screen manager for easy navigation.
Input Fields with Virtual Keyboard: Users can input temperature, cycle count, and cycle time using text fields. The app uses a virtual numeric keyboard (VKeyboard) that appears when a text field is focused.
Dynamic Layout: The GUI contains multiple buttons for navigation, configuration, and switching between different screens. It also features a back button for easy navigation.
Date-Time Display: The app displays the current date and time, which updates every second.
Button Actions: Buttons such as "Thermal Cycle", "Isothermal", and "Confirm Settings" are provided for user interactions, but the backend functionality is not implemented in this minimal example.

You apologize for not including your entire code, but we do not want to see your entire code. Please post a minimal reproducible example. I suggest creating a new project that can be run to demonstrate your problem, but only include the minimum possible code. – John Anderson Commented Nov 21, 2024 at 14:08
Thank you for your suggestion. I have now created a minimal reproducible example, which you can find below. I hope this helps clarify the issue. – NEO101 Commented Nov 21, 2024 at 18:09

According to the documentation:

VKeyboard is an onscreen keyboard for Kivy. Its operation is intended to be transparent to the user. Using the widget directly is NOT recommended.

You can simply add the following code at the start of your main python script:

from kivy.config import Config  # Keep these Config settings at the top
Config.set('kivy', 'keyboard_mode', 'systemanddock')
Config.set('kivy', 'keyboard_layout', './keyboard_layout.json')  # setting a custom keyboard layout from local folder

Then, when a TextInput receives focus, the virtual keyboard will automatically be created without any additional coding required.

All of your code involving self.keyboard, including the show_keyboard() and the on_key_up() methods, can be eliminated.
