And an azerty keyboard ?

@morpheus_xx , does the online keyboard layout change in line with the selected language?

 

[azzuro]

hello @HTPCSourcer
for now, it's always the same stuff, the keyobard layout is qwerty.

Other keyboard layouts have to be placed into an own skin file so they will be loaded for matching language tag:
MediaPortal-2/VirtualKeyboardStyle.xaml at bda13bc9bdab65ff1538d14ea9c22ab22051a523 · MediaPortal/MediaPortal-2 · GitHub

<!-- Fallback keyboard layout which is loaded when no localized keyboard layout is available.
Localized keyboard layouts should be provided by localization plugins which provide language files.
To provide a localized keyboard layout, copy this control template into a file with name
VirtualKeyboardStyle_XX.xaml, where XX is the two-letter code for the language, like
de for german. Then change your copied control to build the desired layout. -->

need to be by language, not system keyboard layout used ?

The OSD keyboard is of course not a Window feature but needs to be provided by the programmer.

You could develop your own French keyboard by following the instructions given in the code and cited by @morpheus_xx

i try, but without sucess
after an long error du to my fault because wrong code:

all "special character" must be :

          <Button Content="," Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="6" Margin="5" Style="{ThemeResource VKButtonStyle}">
            <Button.Command>
              <Command Path="Character" Parameters=","/>
            </Button.Command>
          </Button>

and letter :

          <Button Content="n" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="5" Margin="5" Style="{ThemeResource VKButtonStyle}"
              Command="{Command Path=Character,Parameters=n}"/>

but now, when open an dialog with keyboard layout, it's always the default keyboard.

join the file, think to remove the .txt extension it's only for upload on forum

@azzuro I have done the same as you inside the "SkinBase" plugin and switched the "Default" skin. There my replacements worked (see QWERTZ). But as the style is also copied over into other skins, they need to be placed there as well.

@ge2301 please note a loss of function in "non-Default" skins, there is no copy & paste support. Could be worth to try removing the style from other skins and using the Default one. This could solve the missing feature and also could avoid the need to copy localized keyboards over to other skins.
