KeyboardFocusManager

KeyboardFocusManager is in charge to manage keyboard focus requests from objects in the scene. Objects that needs a keyboard must implement the ITextFocusable interface. They can request the focus with OnFocusChange() or inform the KeyboardFocusManager that text has changed with OnTextChange() (input field can be updated by real keyboard). KeyboardFocusManager updates the keyboard position & buffer when a new object get the focus. Also, the current KeyboardFocus object is informed when the keyboard buffer changed or when the focus is lost thanks to the KeyboardManager callbacks.

The keyboard position can be adjusted in relation to the player's rig position. Also, the moveKeyboardOnFocusChange allows the keyboard position to be updated (or not) each time the user selects another input field.

TouchableTMPInputField

This class is implemented in the CanvasUITouchableTMPInputField prefab that can be used with the TouchableCanvas. TouchableTMPInputField manages 3D interaction with TextMeshPro input field (TMP_InputField). To do so, a BoxCollider and a touchable are required on the game object. The size of the BoxCollider is changed to the size of the input field to generate a corresponding 3D button collider. When the player touches the box collider, the OnTouch event of the Touchable class is detected. Then the keyboard visibility is toggled and the KeyboardFocusManager is informed that the focus changed. KeyboardFocusManager is also informed when the text field is updated.
