Ralph,

I had this same issue on a project.  The problem is when the card/stack opens, 
LiveCode want to activate the first typable field it finds.  If my old memory 
is correct, what I did was this:

on preOpenCard
        set the lockText of fld "thisDarnField" to true 
end preOpenCard

on openCard
        send "doUnlockTheField" to this card in 1 tick //don't send this until 
everything is done loading (you could probably send this in the preOpenCard too)
end openCard

on doUnlockTheField
        set the lockText of fld "thisDarnField" to false
end doUnlockTheField


Hope that helps and I hope it works!   I hope my cobweb-ridden brain remembers 
this correctly!

-Dan

    I have a card with one focusable input field.
    How can I keep the keyboard from opening until the user taps into the field?

    I tried putting "focus on nothing"s in various places such as preopencard
    and opencard with no success?

    I think this has been discussed before. Was there ever a solution for both
    iOS and Android?

    Thanks
