Half-screen keyboard IME option?

[catlard]

Hey, has anybody had any luck using a half-screen keyboard on Android with nGUI or Unity? When I try to use an input field on some of the Android devices I'm developing for, a full-screen keyboard barges in and takes up the whole screen.

My team is trying to figure out how to get this to work -- we've tried modifying the android manifest by putting it in the Plugins/Android folder, and we've tried using plugins that we've found on the internet, but couldn't get either to work properly (the former causes the apk to crash, and the latter doesn't allow us to use the delete button). Does nGUI support this feature, or is there any way that it could? Like, having a keyboard style dropdown menu in UIInput? My team and I are fresh out of ideas.

NGUI just uses whatever Unity exposes. You can find all the code inside UIInput.cs. I'm pretty sure the size of the keyboard is device-dependent though. On my Asus Infinity tablet it never covers the full screen, for example.

Thanks for the response. I guess I thought it could be modified in Unity, or in the manifest, but no dice otherwise...
