Search navigation by arrow keys - Pete_London - 2009-10-22

Hi All,

My search box appears and I can type from my keyboard, but not access it from my remote.

I can't use the up, down, left and right keys on my keyboard either.

Is there a way to turn this functionality on?

Many thanks..

Pete

type sms.

if you absolutely have to feck around using the virtual keyboard, you can enable 'remote acts as a keyboard' in settings.

Thanks Spiff...

Just had a look and can't see it in my menu... can you tell me where it should be?

Thanks,

Pete

you need a fairly new revision (like a week old) and iirc it currently sits in appareance -> look and feel (yes, that will be moved).

in old versions you can use the <navigatevirtualkeyboard> advancedsetting. see the wiki
