Adaptiveness

The Telerik UI for ASP.NET MVC TextArea does not require specific adaptive rendering but enables you to configure a suitable input-specific keyboard that appears on touchscreen devices upon interaction.

On-Screen Keyboard

To enhance the user experience of your application on mobile devices, you can configure the type of the on-screen keyboard for the TextArea component.

To display an on-screen keyboard when the user focuses the TextArea, set the InputMode() property to any of the supported inputmode HTML attribute values. Based on the defined value, the browser displays the respective virtual keyboard on the screen.

The following example demonstrates how to configure the most appropriate on-screen keyboard for the TextArea.

Razor
  @(Html.Kendo().TextArea()
    .Name("textArea")
    .InputMode("text")
  )
