[SailfishDevel] Interacting with the Sailfish Software Input Panel from code

[christopher.lamb at thurweb.ch]

Hi Pekka

thanks, that's it!

Now using Qt.inputMethod.show() I have found this documented as a 4.8  
to 5.0 change.

http://qt.apidoc.info/5.2.0/qtdoc/qtquick-porting-qt5.html

I think it would be helpful if the Silica documentation of the  
TextArea component also referred to the SoftwareInputPanel and  
Qt.inputMethod....

Thanks

Chris
