Problem

When using an Android tablet in landscape mode, the input dialog box for the application is pushed off the screen and you are unable to enter any values.

Cause

When you use an Android tablet in landscape mode, the application input dialog box is pushed off the screen due to the landscape keyboard being triggered. As a result, the usable screen real estate is diminished and the input dialog box is pushed off the screen and you cannot enter any values.

Solution

You interact differently with the user interface on Apple iPads or Android tablets as there is some variation in functionality depending on the device being used. When using Android tablets, we recommended you use Portrait mode or use a Floating Keyboard in Landscape mode to give you the maximum screen real estate when using a tablet.
