With the SPdfViewer, I notice that part of the functionality is that when you lift your finger off of the screen when scrolling, it will continue scrolling with the velocity your finger had. I think this causes issues when using forms and how it handles focusing with the keyboard.

and attached is a demo video showing the issue.
3 things in the video
1) The keyboard dismisses when I scroll in the Viewer. Is there a way to keep the keyboard up and not lose focus in the form?
2) When scrolling in the viewer and not removing my finger/point until the scrolling comes to a rest, the for can be filled out.
3) When scrolling and letting the velocity control slow the scrolling down to a stop, this makes it so the form cannot be selected anymore. I don't think
