Is it possible to play around with windows touch keyboard using javascript?


I'm developing a Kiosk application using Electron. But when I tested the app on an actual kiosk with windows 8 OS, the on screen key board is not launching. Is it possible I can manually enable keyboard by using JavaScript? I searched along for the answer but didn't got any proper answer. Also I would like to change the language of the keyboard with users preference? Can I do these using windows on screen keyboard?


Solution

  • How exactly you create kiosk mode? By replacing shell or/and use full screen application? If so - you need to use own internal keyboard. Windows keyboard available only if explorer running and no full screen application running.
