can't see what I'm writing on a web form

Question

Samsung I9001, android 2.3.6.

If there is a multiline web form, using landscape mode, I'm just seeing the empty part of the web form while I'm using the on screen keyboard.

Any solution?

Answer 1

The obvious:

• try portrait mode
• use a hardware keyboard
• get a device with a bigger screen (ouch -- yeah, I stop this ;)

The not-so-obvious:

• try an alternate keyboard, which consumes less space or offers transparency:
  • A.I.type Keyboard: According to the screenshots, it offers transparency
  • FloatNSplit Tablet Keyboard: The name suggests already it's for tablets only -- but allows to split the keyboard and move it around
  • TransparentKeyboard Froyo: Again, as the name suggests, another transparent keyboard

There might be more solutions (and certainly more alternative keyboards) available, so this list is far from being complete...
