WinCE2013 Toradex image issue - SIP (soft input panel on-screen keyboard can not be changed)
Hello support!
Currently we experiencing an issue with the WinCE2013 image and BSP provided by you.
Our target: Colibri iMX6 board under WinCE2013. We need to have a SIP (software input panel or on-screen keyboard) of large size for thumb entering of the letters. Currently with the image only little tiny and useless keyboard is provided for on-screen text entry.
Description of a problem:
By default Toradex WinCE2013 image includes only tiny small and useless for many cases on-screen keyboard. No XAML SIP support is included in the image by default.
Using Toradex BSP package for WInCE2013 and Toradex workspace for WinCE2013, while building an image for Colibri iMX6 board it is not possible to use any other SIP (software input panel) other than the small tiny one.
As per Microsoft documentation (Microsoft documentation) when creating an image for WinCE2013 there is a choice of three (3) different soft input panels (on-screen keyboards). By default the small one is always selected. In case if you want to add a bigger one to use with your finger (instead of stylus) you have to choose either XAML one or Large keyboard.
Reference: Microsoft WinCE2013 SIP
When adding to the image, based on BSP and Workspace provided by Toradex, any of Large keyboard or XAML based keyboard the WInCE2013 image is no longer starts up.
We have tested this a few times and came to the conclusion that there should be some issue in between the BSP for iMX6 Colibri and WinCE2013.
Only SIP for Small Screens (SYSGEN_MSIM) is supported and included. As soon as you attempt to add to image the XAML SIP for Small Screens (SYSGEN_XAMLIM) or SIP for Large Screens (SYSGEN_LARGEKB) the image will not start up on the target machine.
Please test this for us and provide a fix for this issue. Ability to use large keyboard is very important.
If possible please provide a fixed BSP and a working Workspace with XAML SIP for Small Screens (SYSGEN_XAMLIM) added and working.
Thank you very much for your help!
