Help! How to hide the keyboard in app...

I was bidding on an item in the free ebay App (provided by Ebay v 1.6.1 and the keyboard would not hide and I could not place a second bid. I had made one successful bid and then on a second bid (about 2 minutes later) the keyboard would not go away and I could not submit the bid - only enter a dollar value. It was beyond frustrating watching the time tick down and not being able to place a bid.
Please someone tell me how to hide the keyboard. I tried everything I knew how - tapping the screen, shaking the iphone, exiting out and coming back in and refreshing the app. Nothing would get the keyboard to go away and allow me to touch the submit bid button.
Thanks in advance and SORRY in advance if this is in the wrong forum!

Well the ability of how the keyboard shows and hides is a function of what the developer of the app made. Sounds like a bug in their program or just bad usability.
This is a topic to discuss with eBay as they developed the app. Their code has to control how things happen. Normally leaving a field to type in will make it go away, but if they didn't provide a way to leave focus, then that is a usability issue on their part.

  • How to hide the keyboard?

    Hello,
    I have often been facing a quite uncomfortable behavior of iPod Touch at time of keying.
    Once the keyboard has appeared on the screen, there is no way to make it disappear and keep displaying the initial screen. In some apps, there is a "cancel" menu feature which is helpful in that situation, but in others, there is no?
    Have a look at the settings part, especially those of the Network. Your screen displays the settings of your network such as DHCP, IP address etc.... If you invite the keyboard by tapping in a keyable field, you will notice that there is no way (but quitting your current screen) to quit only the keyboard and to keep displaying the network settings screen you are in.
    I thus was just wondering if there is a known trick (unknown of me so far) to force the keyboard to quit.
    Should you have a suggestion, welcome.

    Hello,
    I am talking about the settings.
    As an example, in Mail settings > New account > Other > you get a screen with IMAP or POP or Exchange. If I tap in the Name field, the keyboard is invited but if I want to quit the keyboard in order to have a full display of the screen, no way. The unique way to do that is to press cancel in the top menu but, in this case I am redirected to the previous screen and not the current one (IMAP POP...).
    That's also true in the Network settings but, you are right, it works like you say, in the other apps such as Safari.

    Sample code :
    Write the below code in the Event handler of Radio Button.
    DATA lv_r_helper_class TYPE REF TO if_wd_select_options.
    lv_r_helper_class = lo_interfacecontroller->init_selection_screen(

    This will hide first select option of your screen.Similarly pass select_option_id2 to hide it and so on.

  • How do I hide the keyboard while typing an email?

    On the iPad you can hide the keyboard anytime while typing.  I cannot see a way to hide the keyboard when typing a mail message. I saw a post saying you close, save, go to your saved messaes and open the message again - too time consuming.  There is a fix on the jailbroken site, but I dont want to jailbreak the phone.  There must be a way to hide the keyboard in a mail messge.  In a text message you can.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Edit
    I CAN, but not fully for a preview, as the text box goes up completely after 80 odd characters on the iPhone.
    So, now i cannot see a previous message for reference.
    Apple needs to incorporate a  'hide keyboard' button

  • How to hide the title of a region or a region without a title?

    Hi All,
    I am desperate to align 4 regions on a report page in my Apex app. I need 4 empty HTML regions, I am creating a table (please refer to this tutorial http://www.apex-blog.com/oracle-apex/how-to-align-regions-on-a-page-10.html). I don't know how to hide the title of these empty regions. As I place a report in each of these regions, I do not want their (empty regions') titles to be displayed? I have searched everywhere on the forum, even sent an email to this tutor, but so far no reply.
    Thank you all, as ever!
    Naushad.

    Hello Naushad,
    I am also looking for something to align my regions. I followed the steps mentioned in the link you provided, but somehow my empty cell space is coming after the second region for example in link example after "copy to" instead of between "Copy From" and "Copy to". Which template did you use for the html region "Copy From" and "Copy to" for???
    Will appreciate if can provide any help. It's very urgent.
    Thanks,
    Suman

  • HT2101 I can't find the keyboard by using iMessage, but I can by using email or whatsapp? How I reset the keyboard on iMessage?

    I can't find the keyboard by using iMessage, but I can by using email or whatsapp? How I reset the keyboard on iMessage?

    Did you tap in the box at the bottom of iMessage?
    If you did and no keyboard is showing: Do a reset
    Reset: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Note: You will not lose any data
    If that didn't helped, double tap Home button, delete the Message app and reset again.

  • Question on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields in the MDT Wizard

    MDT 2012 U1
    Deploying Windows 7 via Offline Media (ISO) to MS Virtual PC's
    I am looking on how to Hide the User Name, Password, and Domain fields which are prepopulated in the MDT wizard via the CS.ini (Not so concerned about the Domain field as I am User Name and Password)
    We do need the Computer Name and OU fields to be seen, so skipping the wizard is not a option
    The client just does not want these fields to be seen by the end users, they dont want them to even know the account name used for adding the machine to the domain, of course the password is not displayed but it must not be displayed either.
    But since we use the fields they must still  be fuctional just not seen.
    Thanks.....
    If this post is helpful please click "Mark for answer", thanks! Kind regards

    You shouldn't have to edit DeployWiz_Definition_ENU.xml. You should only need to add "SkipAdminPassword=YES" to the CS.ini file and your authentication information.
    Example:
    [Settings]
    Priority=Default
    Properties=MyCustomProperty
    [Default]
    OSInstall=Y
    SkipCapture=NO
    SkipAdminPassword=YES
    UserID=<MyUserID>
    UserPassword=<MyPassword>
    UserDomain=<MyDomain.com>
    SkipProductKey=NO
    SkipComputerBackup=YES
    SkipBitLocker=NO
    -Nick O.
    Nick,
    SkipAdminPassword=YES is for:
    You can skip the Administrator Password wizard page by using this property in the
    customsettings.ini.
    I am hidding the Username/Password/and domain field in the computer name Wizard pane which is read from the cs.iniDomainAdmin=xxxxx
    DomainAdminPassword=xxxxx
    DomainAdminDomain=xxxxxx
    JoinDomain=xxxxxx

  • How to hide the view latest instance option for the reports in XIR3

    Created an access level and denied the rights "view document instances" and "view document instances that the user owns" in the access level.
    Applied this access level for a particular group on a particular folder.
    Login to Infoview and when view the history,there are no instances for a particular report under that folder.
    But we could still see the 'View Latest instance' option in the properties of the report and when click on it,we are able to view the report.
    As per the security assigned,the user should only be able to view the instances owned by him.
    Plz help me how to hide the option in INFOVIEW

    In 9.3.1 (not sure about 9.2) there is a table in your BIPlus repository which stores preferences/profile information, however, having a user simply log in to WA doesn't appear to automatically create a row for them in this table. (So this may not be a viable solution to your situation, I'm still looking for one myself.) This table stores lots of preference info such as whether or not to show the Main Menu, Toolbar, Masthead, etc. by default.
    To hide the View Pane, edit the data in the SHOW_INFO_PANEL column, change it from a 1 to a 0 and for that user the View Pane will not longer appear by default.
    HYA_USER_PREFS
    But again, this only works if you already see the user in the table otherwise I guess maybe they have to 'touch' their Preference before it creates an entry in that table. Haven't figured that part out yet, and Support didn't have any information.
    If anyone has found a way to maneuver through the table structures I'd love to hear any insight you can offer.
    Before you make any changes to the data in this table be sure to take adequate repository backups, and use caution as usual.
    I'm going to create a Shared Preference and have each user point to it the first time they log in - but then you lose the ability for each user to have their own personal folder as their default, so it's still not the ideal solution. Really wish there was a way for Admins to set certain prefs. A coworker reminded me under 7.? or 6.x things like View Pane were system-level settings which was easy to control, but now it's at the user level.
    Good luck,
    Karen

    http://<Internet Ip-Address>:<PORT NUMBER>
    Eg: http://******.com:8000

  • How to hide the menus in Weblogic Portal?

    I have to develop a page in Weblogic Portal 10.0 that uses a portlet for the UI presentation.
    I have a requirement that the page is hidden by default. When I navigate to the page by selecting a link, I have to display the contents in that page. While displaying I should hide the portal level menus of other books/pages. But I have to display other contents like logo, etc.
    Can some one please help me on how to hide the menus in the selected page?
    Edited by: [email protected] on Apr 19, 2010 3:43 AM

    As a quick and dirty solution i would edit the navigation jsps (singlelevel/multilevel/yourcustom menu jsp) and disable the navigation for all hidden pages.
    Or create a backing file and dynamically change the navigation state on the desktop when the hidden page is requested.
    Or have the page in a different portal file if possible and set the same header and footer there as well.
    Or You could have a look at the detached portlets. These are used as popups often.

  • How to hide the Print and Export button in analytics report or tasks pane

    Hi Experts,
    In BIEE 11g,
    How to hide the Print and Export button in analytics report or tasks pane ?
    For example:
    In console,I have created one userA which is belong to BIConsumer GROUP , when I make use of the highest user 'weblogic' to create one simple report, then the userA will login the analytivs to view this report (not dashboard), it will show the print and export as below.So customers do not want to give him the privilege for printing and exporting.
    In addtion, go to catalog->tasks(left corner), it will also show the print and export button. So how to hide or not access these button?
    Note: Maybe it can use the policy for consumer role for implementing this requirement, but I do not know how to modify the policy. Are you facing the problem? Thanks.

    Hi,
    1. Create seperate folder for Reports & Dashobard.
    2. For BI_Consumer (userA) set the catalog permission to view Dashboard Folder only and remove permission on the Report Folder (you can give traverse permission but don't give Open permision).
    3. By this user won't be able to open or run any reports in that folder and the only way he can see the reports is through Dashboard and on dashboard the export and print buttone can be removed very easily.
    Mark helpful if it helps.

    In your CO's processFormRequest, do pageContext.putTransactionValue(name, value). You can retrieve the value using pageContext.getTransactionValue(name). Please use your own judgement to use Transaction or Session as the place holder as per your requirement. In most cases, transaction would do but if you want the values to be retained across transactions, use Session. Also, make sure to clear those values when you are done with the values so that this does not get retained across session/transaction.
    Incase, you want the values only for the next submit and not for the transaction, you can use pageContext.putParamater() and pageContext.getParameter() which has a very short life cycle.
