Hi Ole,

The RadDataGrid NumericalColumn provides only numeric keyboard. In order to change the keyboard type of a column you should use a TemplateColumn. I have prepared a sample example how this could be achieved.

Please take a look at the attached sample and let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi,

I am still seeing the numeric pad in the example. Not the telephone.

Hi Ole,

I have tested the attached project and on my side it works fine. The telephone keyboard is showing up when the platform is iOS. I have recorded a short video which demonstrates how the example is running on iOS simulator at my side. Please take a look at the attached video and let me know what's different when you've tested the example.

Looking forward to your reply.

Hi Ole,

I have tested the sample project on iPad and the Telephone keyboard is shown as expected. You can check the available keyboards provided from Xamarin.Forms  Keyboard Class on the following link: Keyboard Class. Indeed you can choose which keyboard type to set on the RadEntry control for the different platform's type. When keyboard type is set on Telephone for iOS, on iPad the keyboard looks like in the attached image -ipad_telephonekeyboard.png. 

I hope the provided information was helpful. Let me know if you have any other questions.
