Description

Expected Behavior

You should be able to edit value in the point in direction block both with the field editor and with the soft keyboard.

Actual Behavior

The soft keyboard opening ends up closing the field editor with the circle angle picker.

This is related to #1345. The relevant fix for that (which doesn't apply to this case was: https://github.com/LLK/scratch-blocks/commit/a5ff0e13288d19d24f270178168904a0f0e32a28

Operating System and Browser

Research direction

Reproduce the issue on a touch device with a soft keyboard and compare editing through the field editor and keyboard. Trace the point-in-direction block's circle angle picker and keyboard interaction, using related issue #1345 and commit a5ff0e13288d19d24f270178168904a0f0e32a28 as context. Done means both input methods remain usable without the keyboard closing the field editor.
