Virtual keyboard - to access without mouse
#1
Hello,

I'm not sure if this thread should go to requests as maybe this option work but I can't figure it out.

I'm using xbmc with remote control only, not lirc, just hand made remote that acts like keyboard, straight away from booting (sending keyboard commands).

I have up, down, left, right, back, escape, tab, page up, page down and Enter.
This is enough for me to enjoy XBMC Smile

The only problem is when I want to use search option or type anything I can't do it as I can't access virtual keyboard that shows up in XBMC.
The only way to use this keyboard is by using mouse, or at least I couldn't find the way to access it.

It would be great if tab, or arrow keys could let you enter inside virtual keyboard and let's you move around letters and choose them.

This option is available in elisa media center, but XBMC rocks so I really miss this option.

Thx for any help and info regarding this matter.

P.S. Moving mouse cursor with keyboard is also something that could solve my problem.
