Can someone please tell me why I cant type in the edit text bar that shows up when i use this mod?

Its a part of an upcoming mod pack

Conditions:
Everything shows up fine, but when I tap the text box while running the code, my keyboard doesnt show up, and therefor i cannot type in it.

I am certain it is the code, as other EditTexts from other scripts work.

Please provide me with an answer to my problem, and perhaps the fixed code itself.

Thanks! Ill give +1's to detailed, useful, or working answers.

Does the popup window need a flag to force it to show keyboard?
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/PopupWindow.html has a few flags to specify the visibility of the keyboard when the window is focused.

To be honest, I had this problem when trying to implement 0.8.0-style text input, and ended up just forcing the keyboard to show using the http://developer.android.com/reference/android/view/inputmethod/InputMethodManager.html InputMethodManager: https://github.com/zhuowei/MCPELauncher/blob/master/src/com/mojang/minecraftpe/MainActivity.java#L1150

Latest version? What do you want now? And when you defined "scroll" you wrote "andriod"

Now, with help from 500ISE, I fixed it!

/*

var simpleGUI
var menu;
ModPE.setItem(460,"nether_star",0,"Time Warper");

var mbutton = new android.widget.Button(ctx);
mbutton.setText("Warp Time");
//button.setWidth(75);
//button.setHeight(75);
mbutton.setOnClickListener(new android.view.View.OnClickListener({
onClick: function(viewarg) {

}
}));

mlayout.addView(mbutton);

simpleGUI.setContentView(mlayout);
simpleGUI.setWidth(75);

simpleGUI.setBackgroundDrawable(new android.graphics.drawable.ColorDrawable(android.graphics.Color.TRANSPARENT));
simpleGUI.showAtLocation(ctx.getWindow().getDecorView(), android.view.Gravity.RIGHT | android.view.Gravity.TOP, 20, 90);
}catch(err){
print("Error: "+err);
}
} }));
}

function mainMenu(){
var ctx = com.mojang.minecraftpe.MainActivity.currentMainActivity.get();
ctx.runOnUiThread(new java.lang.Runnable({ run: function(){
try{

var dialog = new android.app.Dialog(ctx);
var scroll = new android.app.Dialog(ctx);
var dLayout = new android.widget.LinearLayout(ctx);
var gameSpeed = new android.widget.EditText(ctx);
var applybtn = new android.widget.Button(ctx);
var exit = new android.widget.Button(ctx);

gameSpeed.setHint("Game Speed. Default is 20");
gameSpeed.setInputType(android.text.InputType.TYPE_CLASS_NUMBER);

applybtn.setText("Apply!");
exit.setText("exit");

dialog.setTitle("Warp Time");

dLayout.setOrientation(android.widget.LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
dLayout.addView(gameSpeed);
dLayout.addView(applybtn);
dLayout.addView(exit);


dialog.setContentView(dLayout);

applybtn.setOnClickListener(new android.view.View.OnClickListener( {

onClick: function(view) {
var speed = gameSpeed.getText();
ModPE.setGameSpeed(speed);

}
}));
exit.setOnClickListener(new android.view.View.OnClickListener( {

onClick: function(view) {

dialog.dismiss();

}
}));
dialog.show();
}

catch(e){
for(var i = 30; i > 1; i--)
{
print(""+e);
}
}
}
}));
}

function leaveGame(){
var ctx = com.mojang.minecraftpe.MainActivity.currentMainActivity.get();
ctx.runOnUiThread(new java.lang.Runnable({ run: function() {
if(simpleGUI != null){
simpleGUI.dismiss();
}
if(menu != null) {
menu.dismiss();
}
}}));
}

But ModPE.setGameSpeed isn't
working.
