Description of Change

This is a backport of dotnet/maui@a3d8d20 which fixed dotnet/maui#5916 in MAUI two years ago. The responding code already existed in Xamarin.Forms before, but the fix was only done in MAUI.

Essentially it removes the code which hid the soft keyboard when you touch anywhere outside an Editor or Entry.

Issues Resolved

API Changes

None

Platforms Affected

  • Android

Behavioral/Visual Changes

When an Entry is focused, tapping any other element does not close the soft keyboard.

PR Checklist

  • Targets the correct branch
  • Tests are passing (or failures are unrelated)

Now that we're so close to the sunsetting of Xamarin.Forms unfortunately we won't be able to take this in anymore, we're really sorry about that. Nevertheless, thank you so much for your time and effort that you have put into this PR.

Please have a look at the evolution of Xamarin.Forms, .NET MAUI. A lot of development has been going on there. Hopefully this issue was already fixed in that codebase. If not, feel free to port this over to there.

Again, thank you so much for being a contributor and Xamarin.Forms user!
