Need help on touchscreen keyboard on KDE plasma 6 wayland

[stkevintan]

Summary

Hi, I installed archlinux on my Surface Go2 recently. everything works fine except that no on screen keyboard appears after I removed the physical keyboard away and started using the Surface as a tablet device with touchscreen.

My system details:
KDE plasma 6.1.5 Wayland

I noticed that you closed one similar issue before: #87 (comment)

But unfortunately, after I installed the package from AUR, nothing changed, no new item was added to the virtual keyboard list from system settings:

Here are a few questions:

1. Can anyone help me to make Kylin virtual keyboard work on KDE plasma 6?
2. Do we have any plan to add native OSK support for tablet (touchscreen without physical keyboard) ?

Thanks for your great job!

as I mentioned in the blog https://www.csslayer.info/wordpress/fcitx-dev/%e6%bc%94%e7%a4%ba%e4%b8%80%e4%b8%8b%e5%92%8c-openkylin-%e5%90%88%e4%bd%9c%e5%bc%80%e5%8f%91%e7%9a%84%e8%99%9a%e6%8b%9f%e9%94%ae%e7%9b%98/

you can use it under X11 and get better experience, as for wayland.. not so well.

You can try to enforce it to run with xwayland
QT_QPA_PLATFORM=xcb ./kylin-virtual-keyboard

But as far as I know it doesn't work very well that well.
