<ion-input> keyboard attach problem

[denkomanceski]

Short description of the problem:

When I focus an <ion-input> which is positioned lower than the height of the keyboard, the input is getting hidden by the keyboard (It is not floating above so I cant see what I am typing). Also when I type 1 letter, the keyboard disappears. Another thing is that when I focus an input and the keyboard comes out, and than I try to focus another input field, the keyboard is disappearing and appearing again.

What behavior are you expecting?

I am expecting the input to get scrolled up above the keyboard so I can see what I am typing. Also I should be able to type more than 1 letter

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create List with 5-6 ion-items which are containing ion inputs. Than try to focus the lowest positioned (6th in this case) input, and see that you wont be able to see the input above the keyboard and when you try to type 1 letter the keyboard will disappear

Ionic Version: 2

Browser & Operating System: iOS / Android / Chrome
I have this problem on Android Nexus 5 (I am also using crosswalk). It works fine in Ionic View, but still on focusing different input the keyboard is disappearing and appearing again.

any progress on this ? Is there any way to help anything about it ?

A bug which is similar to this one :

On Android 6.0, Ionic 2 :
When an input which is at the bottom of the page is focused, Keyboard is opened. The Input goes up and we can see what we write on. But when we close the keyboard, the input stays at the same place, so there is a big blank at the end of the page (See attached images).

This seems critical.

Same bug here...
Now it's completely unusable.

@privetr @matitalatina It appears the canonical ionic issue for tracking the blank-space-after-keyboard-input is #5432. I've found a temporary workaround with a not-yet-documented config flag that turns off the padding insert and prevents the space from getting created:

@EvanWillms Thanks for the information, I will check if it solves the problem !

I've made some fixes in input focusing. Would this group be able to install the nightly version and let me know how it's working for your app: https://github.com/driftyco/ionic/tree/2.0/scripts#installing-nightly-version

thanks
