Pop Input is a Unity package that utilizes native browser pop-ups to interact with Unity's Input fields. This approach provides several advantages, including mobile touch keyboard support in WebGL builds. The package is designed to be lightweight and easy to integrate, saving developers hours of development time. To get started, simply add the 'Web GL Input Helper' component to an input field and replace the event system with the 'Web Compatible Event System' for Android Chrome support. The package has been verified for major browsers on both desktop and mobile devices.
This plugin works by creating a native browser pop-up prompt dialog when a Web-compatible input field is clicked. The current value in the text input field is parsed as a parameter, along with the 'salted' name of the sending input field. However, there are some caveats to consider:
- Full-screen mode may be exited in some browsers when invoking a pop-up.
- The plugin relies on pop-ups, which may become annoying to players in text-input-heavy games.
Features include:
- Web Copy and Paste Support
- Autocorrect Support
- Web Touch Keyboard Support
- Special Characters and Languages Support
