In Windows phone 8.1 universal app, Appbar currently support only icons, not the buttons. If i use the button, Button is hidden below the keyboard.
I need help to achieve either one of the below
I want to show the Button below the Keyboard, Any ways to achieve it?
Or, Move the Button above the Keyboard when keyboard appears. When Keyboard is not shown, Button should be at the Bottom of the page. Is there any way to do this?
It helps User to see the Button clearly all the time.
React on an OnInputPaneShowing event. The size of the input control is passed into this function and you can update the position of the button according this size.
See MSDN respond to the keyboard presence and MSDN occluded rect property for more info on how to do this.

I'm implementing Accessibility in my application. Here's the scenario :
I have 4 buttons arranged horizontally at the very top of the screen (Activity). On the click of a button, I'm launching an Alert Dialog which displays something to the user. With the alert being displayed, I will still be able to perform click operations on those 4 buttons at the top of the screen. When I turn ON TalkBack (Android Accessibility Service) in Android device and click on that button, alert is getting displayed but I'm unable to move the focus (a yellow rectangular box which will be there when TalkBack feature is turned ON in Android phone) to those 4 buttons. Please help!
Try to set the below properties to your buttons
android:importantForAccessibility="yes"
android:focusable="true"
You won't be able to do it with a dialog, you'll need to fake it with a View.
Perhaps you are using the wrong component which is why it sounds odd when you describe it? A picture of your design would help provide some context.
As #aardrian says, the alert dialog is modal and will (and does) block user input from the underlying UI. Clicking away from the dialog or pressing back will dismiss the dialog.
With TalkBack enabled, the user will be able to press the system back button, use the back gesture (swipe down, then left) or select an option within the dialog to dismiss it.
Try to integrate voice control into your application via Accessibility TalkBack
Define 4 buttons, Alert Dialog Box as objects, selected by voice:
button 1
button 2

I have a problem with my webapp.
Is there a way to hide the android keyboard on text input focus without losing the focus on the input?
Focus on page load works fine, because the field is focused and no keyboard is shown. I want the same behavior after re-focus on input.
Thank You
Maybe you should give keyboard customizing apps a try...might work. I personally prefer Redraw Keyboard, but there are many out there to choose from.
I am using a full-screen flipview to allow a background to rotate behind a set of inputs. if you tap the input textbox, the SIP keyboard appears.
however, tapping outside of the textbox does not dismiss the keyboard as expected. I finally realized it is because of the flipview. I verified this by adding a 250 margin around the flipview. if i tap in the area covered by the control it still doesn't dismiss, but if I tap the areas covered by the margins (that is, outside the flipview) the SIP does dismiss as expected.
I tried setting IsTabStop to false and IsTapEnabled to false for the flipview, but the SIP still remains active unless i tap outside the flipview.
since we need the flipview to be full screen, I need to know if there is a way to disable the control so that it closes the keyboard.
can this be done? which property or event on the flipview can I leverage to make this happen?
aha, by handling the "tapped" event I did the old trick of disabling and enabling the flipview and sure enough the keyboard dismissed!
Am working on a windows store winjs application and am trying to force display the touch keyboard on the application screen.
I couldn't find any proper solution over the net for the same.
Is there a way to force display it?(would be great if there are some work arounds)
The touch keyboard show & hide behavior is designed to be controlled by the user and should not be changed easily.
Anyway an easy workaround is to set the focus on an input control in the page programmatically. This will make the keyboard appear, but the the control will be back to the user and he will be able to hide it at any time.
Cheack this article for a more complex workaround if you need a bit more control: How do I hide virtual keyboard for select element in Win8 JavaScript app?
I have a very simple Chrome extension which produces a bubble pop-out in the top-right of the screen. In the bubble I present the mobile version of our site.
Currently when the extension icon is clicked the bubble pops out and the mobile homepage loads. The user can click around within the bubble and use the mobile site as they wish.
However, once the user clicks outside the bubble is closes. Clicking again repeats the above process.
I wondered if there was a way to make the bubble pop-up/out persistent? So, instead of it disappearing when the user clicks elsewhere it stays loaded until the user clicks the extension icon again. This way the button acts as an on/off switch rather than a single event trigger.
Is this possible, and would someone mind directing me to the code which would help me do this?
As stated in the FAQs, this is not possible. However, chrome.windows.create may meet your needs.
