Textbox does not handle touch input correctly
Thanks for the reply, I thought I was the only one having this problem or just not using it properly. I am experiencing the issues with text fields on any mobile device (iOS, iPadOS, Android) and in every browser tested (Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari).
I have looked at the code, but I am not a frontend developer. I have tried to describe my observations in a test project (see below).
I could also think of a workaround (with postMessage()), but I don't view this as a solution. In my opinion, a basic function such as text input from the user simply MUST work. And it doesn't do that reliably.
As our working group provides learning opportunities for children and young people with SL, I also need usability on mobile devices. It simply has to work the way the children are used to. And without cumbersome home-made solutions. Especially since most of the people working on the content don't have in-depth knowledge of HTML and JS and the solution mentioned above is therefore not feasible.
Unfortunately, this really is a deal-breaker for us.
