I am using GTK3 to develop GUI and I have successfully created a application. But when a entry field is focused in the application, I want the on-screen keyboard to pop-up in my application.
So is it possible to bring the available Florence on_screen keyboard into my application? If not guide me with some other suggestions.
Regard,

hi @nishanth1829
I would suggest to look at this example, where you can call any commands for a specific entry field. So you could launch the Florence on-screen keyboard then.
The example is written, which you may adapt to the language of your choice.
