Thanks for the confirmation.
1) As we don't have the numeric keypad, can we just modify the code
(as mentioned below) to enable Soft keypad for Landscape mode as
well.
2) If the above could be done, can we change the nColumns parameter
(in ButtonGridLayout.java) value from 3 to 4, as Landscape view can
accomodate more columns & less rows.
3) We are also not seeing any notification of the incoming calls. When
we enable the Soft keypad, would we get notification & accept/reject
call buttons as well.
Original code:
if (view != null) {
if (DBG) log("portrait mode setup");
setupKeypad();
} else {
if (DBG) log("landscape mode setup");
// Adding hint text to the field to indicate that keyboard
// is needed while in landscape mode.
mDigits.setHint(R.string.dialerKeyboardHintText);
}
Modified code:
if (view != null) {
if (DBG) log("portrait mode setup");
setupKeypad();
} else {
if (DBG) log("landscape mode setup");
// Adding hint text to the field to indicate that keyboard
// is needed while in landscape mode.
setupKeypad(); // Call setupKeypad always.
}
Thanks,
Regards,
- Ram
