Description

What happened?

I am using the unity plugin for a UWP unity application. On touch screen devices that don't have a keyboard or when the physical keyboard is detached, the on-screen or touch keyboard does not open automatically when an input field is selected in any loaded webpage . This was tested on Surface pro 10 and Surface book.
