Since many platform-specific native virtual keyboards already support a “MaxTextLength” property, it’ll be useful to have such configurable field in IVirtualKeyboardEntry and Slate/UMG widgets like S/UEditableText, S/UEditableTextBox and related classes, in order to automatically limit text entry length through the virtual keyboard itself.
Maybe it can be added to FVirtualKeyboardOptions struct too.
Is it something that can be taken into consideration?

Hi,
That seems like a good addition, I’ve filed a ticket to see if we can add that in for a future release. We don’t currently have any estimate on if/when that work will happen, so if you end up adding something similar yourself and want to submit a Github PR to integrate it back, let us know and I can see about getting it reviewed to be included.
Best,
Cody
Thank you Cody for the update.
We’ll evaluate if our changes can be submitted as Github PR: in such case, I’ll let you know.
Best regards
Paolo
