Virtual keyboards

Mobile devices, such as phones and tablets, often provide a virtual, software keyboard instead of a physical one. The classes in the Flash API let you:

Detect when the virtual keyboard is raised and when it closes.
Prevent the keyboard from raising.
Determine the area of the stage obscured by the virtual keyboard.
Create interactive objects that raise the keyboard when they gain focus. (Not supported by AIR applications on iOS.)
(AIR only) Disable the automatic panning behavior so that your application can modify its own display to accommodate the keyboard.
