I want to remove my text box when the user presses the "Done" key on the onscreen keyboard. Otherwise it takes 2 keypresses to leave the input screen, by implementing an OK button. Is this possible?

Ascii 27 (Escape) can be identified.
Ascii 13 (Return) works on a PC but not on a virtual keyboard.

There is no "Get Last Key" for a virtual keyboard.

Pressing "Done" loses the focus of the edit box. But so does touching the screen outside of the edit box, which could easily be done accidentally.

I tried detecting PointerState to differentiate between the two, but when you click outside of an edit box, there is no pointer event.

Is it possible to do what I am trying to do?

That tells me when the text is updated, character by character.

But what if you type:

MARKU

and then you click outside of the box by accident? In this scenario I do not want to leave the input screen. But if you type:

MARKUS <DONE>

Then I want to leave the input screen.
