tracked
Shinyflvres
In the latest 1918 Beta, two new Chatbox bugs have been introduced.
- Chatbox requires two additional clicks before you can type
Reproduction steps:
- Press Z / Y depending on your keyboard layout to open the Chatbox.
- Try to enter text. Typing does not work.
- Move your mouse cursor over the input field and click it.
- You can now enter text normally.
Expected behavior:
Press Z / Y to open the Chatbox and immediately start typing without having to click the input field first.
- Chatbox text does not appear at all
Chatbox text does not appear regardless of whether Live Text is enabled or the message is manually sent.
Reproduction steps:
- Press Z / Y and follow the steps from Issue 1 if necessary.
- Enter a message.
- Either use Live Text or press Send Message.
Expected behavior:
The message should appear normally.
Actual behavior:
The message does not appear at all.
Additional information:
Sending Chatbox messages through OSC still works correctly.

The chat box isn't working properly ...
Spsrb
Description
Pressing the Y key in the game brings up the chat box, but it only shows 'typing...' and doesn't display the content.But I can type and communicate through the OSC panel, and chatting works normally then.
Reproduction Steps
Clear the cache files and use Steam's VRC beta version.
Maybe you also need to open the OSC panel?
I don't know the exact steps to reproduce it, but after I cleared the cache and changed the cache directory from the C drive to the D drive, it happened again when I reopened it.

Description
I can't type properly. Even though I pressed Y, I am able to type text in the input box, but neither I nor others can see what I typed. I've reinstalled the game and verified the file integrity, yet nothing worked. I need functional typing to communicate.
Reproduction Steps
Reproduction steps:
- Press Y.
- Click the chat box with the mouse.
- Type text. Other players cannot see the message.

[1918] Text chat input is not focused when opened with the keyboard collapsed, and its position is incorrect after expanding the keyboard
chiugame
If the client is started while the keyboard is collapsed and the text chat is then opened, the input field is not automatically focused and does not accept keyboard input.
Even after clicking the input field to focus it, entering text, closing the text chat, and opening it again, the same issue occurs.
Once the keyboard is expanded, the input field starts being focused automatically whenever the text chat is opened. However, the input field is then displayed too high on the screen.
Even after collapsing the keyboard again, the input field appears to remain fixed at the position used while the keyboard is expanded.
I have attached a video showing this behavior.
It would be helpful if the input field could be focused correctly when opening the text chat even while the keyboard is collapsed, and if its position could be updated appropriately depending on whether the keyboard is expanded or collapsed.

[1918] Desktop Chatbox text not focusing automatically and messages fail to send/display
Lis_e
- Press the Ykey to open the Chatbox input popup.
- Notice that the text field is not focused automatically (you must click it to type).
- Type any message into the field.
- Attempt to send the message using the Enterkey or by clicking the on-screen Send button.
Expected Behavior:
- Pressing Yshould automatically focus the input field so typing can begin immediately.
- Sending via either the Enterkey or the Send button should show the message above the player's head and make it visible to other players in the instance.
Actual Behavior:
- The input field is unfocused until manually clicked.
- Neither Enternor the Send button sends the message; no chat bubble appears over the player's head, and other players receive nothing. (No chat notification sound plays.)
Additional Notes:
- The other players present in the test instance were on the current Live build (non-Open Beta).
- Tested exclusively in Desktop mode.

[1918] デスクトップでチャットボックスの入力欄に自動フォーカスされず、EnterキーでもSendボタンでもメッセージが送信されない
- Yキーを押してチャットボックスを開く
- 入力欄をクリックしないと入力できないことを確認する
- 何かメッセージを入力する
- Enterキーまたは画面上の送信ボタンをクリックして送信する
期待される挙動：
- Y キーを押すと自動で入力欄にフォーカスが当たり、すぐに入力できる。
- 送信した際、プレイヤーの頭上にメッセージが表示され、インスタンス内の他プレイヤーからも確認できる。
実際の挙動：
- 手動でクリックするまで入力欄にフォーカスが当たらない。
- 送信した際、プレイヤーの頭上にメッセージが表示されず、インスタンス内の他プレイヤーからも確認できない。（通知音も出ない）
その他：
- テスト時、同じインスタンス内にいた他のプレイヤーはデフォルトの公開バージョンでした。
- デスクトップモードでのみ確認を行いました。

Yeah, tbh..

Once I brought up the Soft Keyboard using the top-left button, everything started working properly. Now the text field auto-focuses and messages send successfully, regardless of whether the Soft Keyboard is currently visible or hidden.
チャット左上にあるキーボードを表示させると、その後はキーボードの表示・非表示関わらず送信できるようになります。

This issue appears in VR as well not only Desktop. Tested also on Quest 3 and iPhone (iOS)

Worlds can hide chatbox visibility with Udon. I couldn't read the logs to understand the full picture.
