How to move between input fields with a D-pad or arrow keys? (with the new input system)
Hello,
I've been working on implementing the new Unity input system in my project. All the new features are working pretty good and the game even has proper controller support now. Navigating between UI elements with the d-pad is working really well, except for the input fields.
The problem is, whenever I move from a button to an input field using the new input system navigation, the input field gets selected, but after that I can't move anywhere else. I can't even use my controller buttons to change the input field values. I have explicit navigation defined, so it should know where to go and respond to the d-pad directions.
The only time I can move from one input field to another with the d-pad, is when I hit ESC on my keyboard, which deselects the input field and allows me to get to the next input field.
I couldn't find any answers or forum posts about this issue anywhere, so I hope someone can stier me to a direction towards a potential work around or solution :' ))
