I am building an commercial app for fire-tv, and I need to change the soft keyboard. Add keys, resize the keyboard to fit screens etc. How can this be done on a fire-tv?
there are limited options for customizing the default on-screen keyboard.
When defining an EditText
item, in XML you can use android:inputType="number"
to switch to a numeric keyboard.
If you look at the UIWidgetsSample
sample app in the Amazon Fire TV SDK there are some other options for customizing the on-screen keyboard (eg email) however for a large-scale customization you'll probably want to do as Hulu or Netflix have done and implement your own to have full control
