Property Value

Boolean

bool

true if the on-screen keyboard is not shown when the control receives focus programmatically; otherwise, false. The default is false.

Remarks

Set this property to true to prevent the onscreen touch keyboard from showing when focus is programmatically set on a text box. By default, the onscreen touch keyboard is displayed whenever focus moves to an editable text box and the most recent input was generated by touch. This happens whether focus is set programmatically or by user interaction. In some situations, you might not want the keyboard to show when focus is set programmatically. For example, you might want to prevent the keyboard from covering part of your UI until the user is ready to continue their interaction.
