display keyboard on xbox

Came across this thread 'cause Im curious about the same question.

@G v zauBerBerg -

I feel like your response still leaves the matter a bit vague. You said that the Wireless Display "is not a full remote controll of your Computer!". This makes sense, and could liken the Xbox One Wireless Display app as merely a monitor for your PC. But
then you said "But you can also put a Mouse and Keyboard on your XBOX ONE, and some apps and games support this."

Can you confirm if plugging such adapters will or will not work with Wireless Display app? I have connected a logitech keyboard to the Xbox and the xbox recognizes the keyboard for most (if not all) type-field tasks. But when I go into Wireless Display and
try to use the keyboard, I get "to enable input, go to the Action Center on your PC and select...". Im wondering if the Wireless Display will in fact allow you to use a keyboard connected to the Xbox while displaying the PC, and that maybe its a matter
of enabling certain permissions on the PC.

Oooor, far more likely, that Wireless Display is merely a monitor and the PC will not rspond to any mice/keyboards connected to the Xbox One.

Can you please help clarify this?

Sure so basically I play games on the gaming PC but sometimes I want to be in the living room. I don't want to lug it around.

xbox has the wireless display app which screen mirrors from your pc but also allows you to use the xbox controller for input.

I still want to use mouse and keyboard and I cannot figure out how to keep using mouse and keyboard when xbox is running the wireless display app. It always reverts to the controller only.

I basically want to use the xbox and the wireless display app like moonlight but keep using a mouse and keyboard instead of the xbox controller.

Is that more clear?

This is actually a Steam Keyboard. In your Steam window: View ----> Settings ----> Controller ----> Desktop Configuration. This will open a window that displays your controller. Click the box on the bottom left showing the various Arrow Keys. It will show a few settings. On the right, click on "Show Keyboard" under the "Click Action" setting. This will open up a keyboard and mouse with a bunch of possible bindings. Click the "Remove" button, below the keyboard display. Back out of the settings and click 'OK This will unbind the keyboard from popping up

Thanks, that solved the problem perfectly.

Hi

Please try hard resetting the console, To do this please press and hold the Xbox logo on the front of the console for 5-10 seconds once the console has shut down disconnect the power supply from the wall outlet for 5 minutes. Once you have done this please
power the console back up and hopefully you should now have the on screen keyboard back.
