FWIW, I couldn't get this to work at all:
mobileControlSet “input”, “keyboardType”, “search”
The only thing that worked for me was mobileSetKeyboardType, with the
caveat that it had to be issued after the native control was created.
And the glitch there is that it doesn't take effect until the keyboard
is re-activated, so you have to make sure that the field isn't focused
until after you set up the native control. That is, if the keyboard pops
up due to auto-focusing when the card opens, the keyboard won't be right
until the next time it appears.

Dan,
I believe it’s because setting keyboard type with a mobile native control is
done by setting a property with mobileControlSet:
mobileControlCreate "input","_editingField”
mobileControlSet “input”, “keyboardType”, “number”
The mobileSetKeyboardType command works in all other circumstances, including
with native LiveCode fields.

I am having some trouble with mobileSetKeyboardType. Can anyone tell me why
mobileSetKeyboardType works with this:
mobileSetKeyboardType "number"
ask "Enter a number"
But it doesn’t work with this:
mobileSetKeyboardType "number"
mobileControlCreate "input","_editingField"
mobileControlSet "_editingField","rect","20,20,200,60"
mobileControlSet "_editingField","text","123"
mobileControlSet "_editingField","visible",true
mobileControlDo "_editingField","focus"
Doesn't seem to matter what I set mobileSetKeyboardType to or when I set it. It always
shows the "normal" keyboard.
