Description

I'm using a device with a 4'' display. The application is fairly usable, except for the filename dialog (the one that appears when you choose e.g. Rename in a file's overflow menu). The filename dialog is visible when the software keyboard is hidden, but when the software keyboard is open, the file dialog is not legible.

A simple solution would be to hide the action button when the dialog is visible.

Research direction

Start by locating the filename dialog shown for actions such as Rename and the action button that remains visible when the software keyboard opens. Reproduce the issue on a small display with the keyboard open; done means the dialog is legible and usable in that state.
