Bug Description

Similar to bug 612627 (which was fixed and was working for me).

When denting, either using the new group dent, or for an individual episode, the keyboard comes up and completely obscures the textbox so I cannot see what I'm typing. Unlike 612627 this happens in all circumstances (ie not just when there aren't any dents yet for a particular episode).

This is HTC Desire, running 2.2. Haven't yet tried it in an emulator but will get some screenshots.

The UI when typing dents is just too cramped at present. I think this may have to get a redesign which will alleviate some of these issues..

Experiencing this as well now since I switched to Gingerbread.

Fab, I am hoping that when I have implemented the mockups which create more space, that this will either go away, or be trivial to solve. I don't get this bug with my phone so once I have the new denting UI done, this will need testing.

OK, I will do that. Let's table a fix until then. Thanks for being on the ball! :)

Ok, I think I have finally fixed this issue in commit 956b95e on gitorious. I eventually managed to recreate it in the emulator and came across the solution while doing some other changes. Turns out a <supports-screens> element was needed in the Manifest file. I have only tested this in the emulator though, not on any hardware, so if it is not fixed when anyone tries the next release please comment.
