Keyboard for chatbox overlayed by invisible hand-held menu
available in future release
PiranaSushi
- Open chatbox keyboard.
- Start typing. Notice how sometimes certain keys are inactive/unclickable depending on where the keyboard is placed.
- At some point when typing, there is a chance that you randomly respawn or recalibrate, as if you had clicked the "respawn" or "calibrate" buttons on the handheld menu. This may need a few openings and re-openings of the menu and keyboard to occur fully, as it is very inconsistent for people who use the in-game keyboard a lot.
The thing that makes me think it is the quick menu being invisibly clipped into the keyboard is because of certain observations when moving the keyboard around. If you pull the keyboard directly above or below you and start typing the issue seems to disappear. I assume this is because this places the keyboard completely out of the way of any overlayed invisible menu so there is no risk of it clipping into the keyboard. Interestingly, this problem does not seem to go away when moving the keyboard to the side, at the same elevation.

This issue occurs 100% of the time if you close the launchpad while a player is pointed at with the opposite hand. I was able to have 5 different people replicate the issue using that exact method. A video of this is detailed on my merged post below.
This issue has been around a long time, I really hope identifying exactly what causes it can help the resolution of the bug.

Chatbox is blocked by an invisible Launchpad when the Launchpad is closed while hovering a player.

- Open VRChat on any VR Platform.
- Open the Launchpad.
- Point at a player, portal, or sticker with the opposite hand.
- Close the Launchpad.
- Open the Chatbox from the Tools Radial menu, and ensure the Chatbox is in the same area the Launchpad was closed in.
- Point both hands around the Chatbox.
Result:
Launchpad button tooltips will appear and will be blocking portions of the Chatbox making some letters un-pressable, often causing the player to press Launchpad buttons unintentionally.
This issue was reproduced 25/25 times on SteamVR, 2/2 on Android.
The issue persists until the Launchpad is opened again.
The player can grab and move the Chatbox away from the invisible launchpad to avoid the issue.

Can confirm this to be a current issue in the public release (non-beta), and is easily replicated.

VR Chatbox keyboard makes you respawn/recalibrate fbt

When you're typing in VR it can occasionally respawn you, or make you recalibrate if you're in FBT when you press on some letters. I'm not sure how to exactly reproduce it, but it happens much more often in FBT and when your keyboard is a little bit down, super annoying. And when it makes you go in calibration state you can't type anymore, until you close keyboard, and finish calibration.

Keyboard is blocked by invisible quick menu

When using keyboard sometimes you cannot click keys in a specific area that is different almost every time. Sometimes it even functions like the quick menu while typing on the keyboard like recalibrating or even opening the avatar menu, which bugs out and shows the keyboard still and the small spinning avatar preview. It can be temporarily fixed by moving the keyboard to a different location but gets quite annoying after it happens multiple times.

Keyboard's inputs get blocked by a static invisible Quick Menu

This bug is a tricky tough one to reproduce and to explain, so i've recorded a video in one of the moments that it happened. I can't reproduce it, i only know that it happens 1 out of 30 times i open my vrc keyboard to type.
The issue is, i open the keyboard to type in my chatbox, and there are certain keys that i can't click on, they don't highligh when i hover my laser over it, then i find out at the bottom right that it says messages like:
- Discover and visit new worlds
- Change your avatar
- Browse users in the instance and your friends
- Etc...
Those are messages that you can read when you hover the laser in your quick menu's options.
Again, i can't reproduce this, but it happens, it happens to me more than once every day. Just open my keyboard and start typing and i can't click on Send because it thinks there is another menu above the keyboard (quick menu stuck in front of it). In the video i found out that i can dodge that invisible menu by using playspace mover so i can click on those inputs that were blocked by it.
Please, watch all the video to try to understand what is happening, and sorry for the bottom right mirrored view.
I use Index headset and index controllers, in case its necessary to know, and this has been happening since 2~ months ago.
