title
KMManager.showKeyboardPicker()

Summary

The showKeyboardPicker() method displays the keyboard picker menu.

Syntax

KMManager.showKeyboardPicker(Context context, KeyboardType kbType)

Parameters

context

The context.

kbType

The keyboard type. KEYBOARD_TYPE_INAPP or KEYBOARD_TYPE_SYSTEM.

Description

Use this method to display keyboard picker menu. Normally you do not need to call this method explicitly since, by default, Keyman on-screen keyboard calls this method to display the keyboard picker menu whenever 'globe' key is tapped. Multiple calls to this method is unsafe and may result in multiple instances of keyboard picker menu being displayed at the same time.

Examples

Example: Using showKeyboardPicker()

The following script illustrate the use of showKeyboardPicker():

    final Context context = this;
    ImageButton globeButton = (ImageButton) findViewById(R.id.globeButton);
    globeButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            KMManager.showKeyboardPicker(context, KMManager.KeyboardType.KEYBOARD_TYPE_INAPP);
        }
    });
