To display the soft keyboard again after hiding it manually, click a non-input field and then the current input field again.
The soft keyboard might not appear when you click from one input field to another in a web browser. To work around this issue, click a non-input field and then the target input field.
The feature does not support Unicode characters and double-byte characters (such as Chinese, Japanese, and Korean characters).
The soft keyboard is not available for password input fields.
The soft keyboard might overlap the current input field. In this case, move the app window or scroll up your screen to move the input field to an accessible position.
Due to compatibility issues between Citrix Workspace app and Huawei tablets, the soft keyboard appears on Huawei tablets even with a physical keyboard connected.
