Software keyboard won't autoload on Microsoft Surface Pro

[Rob-122]

Overview

When I click in the active window in KeypassXC the software keyboard no longer activates when typing the password or after opening in the search field or any other field that I have tried inside keypassxc

Steps to Reproduce

1. when the app starts I click the type password field
2. nothing happens

Expected Behavior

on previous versions and any other app when I click with mouse or with finger in any text field the software keyboard "TabTip.exe" automatically brings up the keyboard on screen

Actual Behavior

it no longer brings the software keyboard on screen I have to manually start the keyboard which still works after manual start so it's not a major issue only a slight annoyance

Context

I'm not sure how long this has been an issue for me

Certainly isn't a bug with our program, if anything it would be a Qt bug. However, I suspect this is related to us hiding the window from screen capture. Can you try enabling screencapture by going to View -> Enable Screencapture. Then try this again.

Thanks for the suggestion sadly it didn’t work, not really a big deal I have a keyboard shortcut on my mouse I use for full screen games. Just posted it in case something changed. I’m still very happy with KeepassXC.
