keyboard is hiding

[Softkeydel]

On open menu keyboard is hiding. Please give some solutions so that both keyboard and menu can be visible at the same time

I have the same problem, I'm trying to make an autocomplete field, I did set the button as text input, but every time I touch it, the keyboard is hiding. Next touch is triggering the text input, but the menu is hiding instead.

I'm running into this same problem, it'd be great to see a fix :)

This is caused by the underlying behaviour in the React Native Modal component. The solutions I can see here are either:

• Change this library to not use a Modal.
• Submit a PR to React Native adding a prop to allow showing modals without hiding the keyboard, and use that.

@mxck, is this something you're interested in fixing?
