The signal QInputMethod::animatingChanged is never emitted on the Jolla.

This is bad, because sometimes you want to do something after the virtual keyboard pops up (example: scroll to the bottom of the screen, etc.), but without this signal you can't. Note that onFocusChanged of the TextField component is emitted before the virtual keyboard shows up.

I tried it in two ways:

Connections {
    target: Qt.inputMethod
    onAnimatingChanged: {
        console.log("animating changed");
    }
}

and

Component.onCompleted: {
    Qt.inputMethod.animatingChanged.connect(function() {
        console.log("animating changed");
    });
}

Neither of them work.

True, signaling for this hasn't been implemented. Also once it is, it will change value slightly behind actual state due to keyboard living in separate process.

As a workaround you could have a small delay before triggering UI changes. Popup transition takes 400 ms.
