Input mode not changed

[Yama]

Hi,

Input mode does not switch even when using InputMethod in SfDataGrid

<Syncfusion:GridTextColumn

Width="250"

HeaderText="Name"

InputMethod.PreferredImeConversionMode="FullShape,Native"

InputMethod.PreferredImeState="On"

MappingName="Name" />

Hi Yama, 

 

Thank you for your patience. 

 

We have checked reported case with WPF DataGrid, but OnScreen key board will not be displayed when the textbox in a cell got focus. We can replicate the same scenario in Microsoft TextBox also. We need the following details for better understanding, 

 

·        Are you expecting to display the On-Screen keyboard when textbox got focus on touch? 

·        We checked this properties InputMethod.PreferredImeConversionMode="FullShape,Native" InputMethod.PreferredImeState="On" with the framework TextBox. It’s not working as expected. Can you please guide us how you are verifying the IME options against WPF controls? 

 

If you provide the above details, it will be helpful for us to provide the solution as early as possible.

Dear Sir,

Thank you for your response.

What I want to do is not inputting by OnScreen but inputting by the method specific to Asia including Japan.

Like attached screen

The input method changes according to the value of InputMethod.PreferredImeConversionMode.

I want to do the same process in the cell of SfDataGrid control.

Here is a sample with sfTextbox:

<Window

    x:Class="SyncfusionWpfApp3.MainWindow"

    xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"

    xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"

    xmlns:Syncfusion="http://schemas.syncfusion.com/wpf"

    Title="MainWindow"

    Width="525"

    Height="350"

    Icon="App.ico">

    <Grid>

        <StackPanel VerticalAlignment="Center">

            <Syncfusion:SfTextBoxExt

                Width="120"

                InputMethod.PreferredImeState="Off"

                Text="normal textbox" />

            <Syncfusion:SfTextBoxExt

                Width="120"

                InputMethod.PreferredImeConversionMode="Katakana"

                InputMethod.PreferredImeState="On"

                Text="カタカナTextbox" />

        </StackPanel>

    </Grid>

</Window>

Hi Yama, 

  

Thank you for your patience. 

  

We have tried your provided code snippet with SfTextBoxExt, but we could not get that Popup for Japanese language like your provided sample image. Can you please point out us how the suggestion popup is showing at your end? Is there any additional settings that we need to show the suggestion popup when typing?. Moreover, we have workaround for your query. You can use the SfTextBoxExt in GridTemplateColumn. Please refer the following code snippet, 

  

Xaml: 

<syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn MappingName="City"> 

                   <syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <TextBlock Text="{BindingCity}" /> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                   </syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.CellTemplate> 

  

                   <syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.EditTemplate> 

                        <DataTemplate> 

                            <syncfusion:SfTextBoxExtText="{Binding City, Mode=TwoWay}" InputMethod.PreferredImeConversionMode="Katakana" 

                InputMethod.PreferredImeState="On"> 

                                <!--You can do your costomization for SfTextBoxExt--> 

                            </syncfusion:SfTextBoxExt> 

                        </DataTemplate> 

                   </syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn.EditTemplate> 

                </syncfusion:GridTemplateColumn>
