On-Screen Keyboard in Tablet Mode
- Feb 05, 2020
Hello Mabster,
this is a general Chromium bug, affecting all chrome-based browsers using newer engines, since the Chrome team changed the type of invoking the virtual keyboard about 3 months ago.
There's already a fix for it, merged into Google Chrome Dev and Canary, see
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1039766
so within a few days it will also be fixed in Edge Chromium with one of the next updates.
You can check for the Chrome engine by typing edge://version/ and then go to User-Agent.
The fixed version is Chrome/81.0.4044.0 or higher for Edge Dev and Canary.
Unfortunately there's no fix for Edge Beta (using Chrome engine 80.xxx) by now, because the Google Chrome team is still discussing if it makes sense to merge the fix into #80 (see the latest posts on the above link).
Best regards
