Is there a way to control whether the mobile keyboard pops up when focus is on a field? I would like to be able to control when then keyboard displays on an RF device that will be scanning into the fields most of the time.

Normally mobile devices always pop-up the keyboard when focus is placed in a field where you can type. I've never heard of putting focus in a field and having it NOT pop-up a keyboard...

There is a screen-level property called "no focus" that can be used to suppress the default behavior of putting focus in the first input field. If you are using our camera-based barcode scanner, focus in the field is not needed as part of scanning the barcode.

If you're using some other means of scanning barcodes, then you'll need to refer to the documentation for the scanner to determine what it's requirements are.
