Capture all Keyboard input, regardless of what control has focus in Windows Form applicaion

Question

We are using the windows form application on a tough pad (touchscreen device).

want to show the on screen key board when user click the text box or any input control , rather then handling this event is there any way to handle this on the application level to show and hide the windows on screen keyboard

Do you use Devexpress controls? – Roxana Sh Aug 17 '19 at 06:30 — Roxana Sh, Aug 17 '19 at 06:30

DevExpress editors, as well as regular .NET editors, do not affect OnScreenKeyboard's behavior. I suggest that you use one of the approaches described here to display it - Automatically pop up tablet touch keyboard on WinForms input focus.
