This functionality is already supported in the Android port, however in iOS it is not present. I have attached the screenshots from a Paypal (native app) and our CN1 app for an example of the keyboard. In the Paypal app, the "prev", "next" and "done" buttons are present on top of the virtual keyboard. |

Comment #3 originally posted by codenameone on 2012-12-13T13:50:26.000Z: the first request would not be trivial, cause even if we change the fold to focus once you click on the screen the focus in most cases will change and will cause the fold. This has to be fixed in a more generic way. In the meantime I'm reassign this to Shai to fix the 2nd request for IOS |

This was fixed a long time ago |
Original issue 361 created by codenameone on 2012-10-10T20:00:29.000Z:
I have noticed this issue on Android and the simulator, I'm unsure if it's an issue in iOS (probably is)
On Android, most apps allow you to scroll the screen or scroll through a list while a text area has focus and the virtual keyboard is showing.
This can be seen on the gmail app. Hit the search icon, a text area at the top gains focus and the virtual keyboard shows up. However, you can still scroll through the list of emails. This scrolling does not cause the text area to lose focus or cause the virtual keyboard to disappear and the user can continue typing a search at any time without having to reselect the search icon or he text area.
Shai fixed the problem of not being able to click components on the Form with the virtual keyboard showing in issue 265. However, I think this fix needs to go a step further and allow this behavior as, at least on Android, it is almost expected by the user.
This could maybe be setting somewhere, perhaps on the TextArea, that allows scrolling without loss of focus on the TextArea and the keyboard disappearing.
