I am tinkering with a real time public transport application... I have a serchField at the moment that takes bus numbers (2-3 numbers + optionally a letter) and bus stop numbers... only numbers.

My question is... Is there any way to make the general keyboard that appears when the focus is on the search field to start with the symbol key activated? ()

now now

how I would like it to start now

Use eg. inputMethodHints: Qt.ImhFormattedNumbersOnly in the SearchField. It inherits from TextFieldso those properties can be used too: https://sailfishos.org/sailfish-silica/qml-sailfishsilica-textfield.html#inputMethodHints-prop

You can't have both, hence the Only in Qt.ImhFormattedNumbersOnly.
