focus() event not firing for Selectfield (Ext.field.Select) in ST2 PR2

[John2011]

I have a form with text inputs and a select field. I have the problem that the on screen keyboard of the iPhone stays visible and covers the overlay of the selectfield.

I was hoping to counteract this by hiding the keyboard by triggering blur() event on the text fields, however the selectfield does not fire the focus() event.

I am using the following code. Here the show() event is fired but focus() is never fired, even after selecting an item in the list.

{
    xtype: 'selectfield',
    name: 'rating',
    label: 'Rating',
    options: [
        {text: 'Three',  value: '3'},
        {text: 'Two', value: '2'},
        {text: 'One',  value: '1'}
    ],
    listeners: {
        focus: function() {
            console.log('focus');
        },
        show: function() {
            console.log('show');
        }
    }
}

I have moved this to the bugs forum and pushed into our bug tracker. Thank you.

Thank you for fixing this, however I see that Sencha Touch 2.0.0 PR3 was released on the same day and this fix is not yet present in this release.

Is there a workaround for the time being?

I’m still seeing this in ST2 Commercial 2.0.0

Still an issue for 2.0.1. Is there a known workaround? i tried the events show and focus, but both dont fire when the selectfield is activated. I need it to hide the keyboard when using android phones.

Bumping this post, just like previous entry I can't blur the edit box which opened the soft keyboard on android.

This is required on phones with the config option usePicker on true, false or auto.

Neither option is usable if the soft keyboard is popped up or the edit box is on top of the select list hindering the selection.

Hi,
Can someone please pay attention to this issue?
I checked the Release note and I found this:
[TOUCH-1209] Fixed focus event not firing for Ext.field.Select
This was supposed to be fixed on:
Release Notes for Sencha Touch 2.0.pr4

Still not fixed on ST 2.1.0
Thanks.

This will be in the next beta of Sencha Touch 2.1.

There are some difficulties with this functionality on a lot of mobile browsers, so it is not very consistent, especially on Android. It does however work well on iOS. This will be in the documentation (when released).
