InputMethodManager / InsetsController log messages on each typed character on Android

Open tgucio opened this issue 3 years ago • 3 comments

It appears that with every character typed we send a request to the platform to show soft keyboard.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Execute flutter run on the code sample using an Android device
  2. Type in the text field

Expected results: No logs shown on each typed character

Actual results: Every character typed produces the following log:

D/InputMethodManager(32033): showSoftInput() view=io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterView{c4be627 VFE...... .F...... 0,0-1080,2214 #1 aid=1073741824} flags=0 reason=SHOW_SOFT_INPUT
D/InsetsController(32033): show(ime(), fromIme=true)

Here's the call stack:

I/flutter (32033): updateEditingValue
I/flutter (32033): _formatAndSetValue
I/flutter (32033): _handleSelectionChanged
I/flutter (32033): requestKeyboard
I/flutter (32033): _openInputConnection
D/InputMethodManager(32033): showSoftInput() view=io.flutter.embedding.android.FlutterView{c4be627 VFE...... .F...... 0,0-1080,2214 #1 aid=1073741824} flags=0 reason=SHOW_SOFT_INPUT
D/InsetsController(32033): show(ime(), fromIme=true)
Code sample 
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';

void main() {
  runApp(const MyApp());
}

class MyApp extends StatelessWidget {
  const MyApp({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return MaterialApp(
      title: 'Flutter Demo',
      theme: ThemeData(primarySwatch: Colors.blue),
      home: const MyHomePage(title: 'Flutter Demo Home Page'),
    );
  }
}

class MyHomePage extends StatefulWidget {
  const MyHomePage({Key? key, required this.title}) : super(key: key);

  final String title;

  @override
  State<MyHomePage> createState() => _MyHomePageState();
}

class _MyHomePageState extends State<MyHomePage> {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      appBar: AppBar(title: Text(widget.title)),
      body: Center(
        child: Column(
          mainAxisAlignment: MainAxisAlignment.center,
          children: <Widget>[
            const Text('You have pushed the button this many times:'),
            Text(
              'Type here',
              style: Theme.of(context).textTheme.headline4,
            ),
            const Expanded(
              child: TextField(maxLines: null),
            ),
          ],
        ),
      ),
    );
  }
}

Hi @tgucio, I believe this is a duplicate of https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/9471.

Kindly follow up in the issue linked above for updates.

Thank you

@danagbemava-nc thanks for digging the other issue up. I don't think it's the same though: that one talks about API calls on an inactive InputConnection. This one is about unnecessary showSoftInput requests.

Thanks for the info.

Reproducible using the code sample provided above.

facing the same issue.. please solve it asap..

update: i debugged for hours.. in the end it wasn't the cause of the error...

Explaining my error (you can read if you're interested): i made mistake while calling a custom search button that i made.. before constructor i mistakenly added an underscore (_)... then it got solved... pretty sad... hours of debugging down to the drain...
