The green box is a text area.

When I click on it, I show the keyboard and point it to the text area. It draws over the buttons at the bottom OK, but the dropdown is NOT drawn over.

Hi @mattb.351 ,

You should be able to use this function: lv_obj_move_foreground(your_keyboard_obj); the relevant documentation is here

Kind Regards,

Pete

Thanks, I didn’t know about that function. I’ve never needed it, everything has always just worked.
