How to keep focus on TextField but not display keyboard in Flutter?

Question

I am new to Flutter. The thing I want is to keep focus on TextField, but not display keyboard. Is it possible?

Answer 1

To give focus to a text field as soon as it’s visible, use the autofocus property.

content_copy
TextField(
  autofocus: true,
);


_dismissKeyboard(BuildContext context) {
   FocusScope.of(context).requestFocus(new FocusNode());
}

@override
Widget build(BuildContext context) {

return new GestureDetector(
    onTap: () {
    this._dismissKeyboard(context);
    },
    child: new Container(
    color: Colors.white,
    child: new Column(
        children: <Widget>[/*...*/],
    ),
    ),
 );
}

Both of these components should be used together to implement what you are trying to acheive.
