    This issue is still plaguing UWP on the HoloLens 2 with Unity version 2019.4.28f1, MRTK 2.7 2. The MRTK keyboard is disappearing while typing in an TMP Inputfield. The issue appears when UnityEngine.TouchScreenKeyboard.set_selection is called. Here is the error message: ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Selection is out of range.
    Parameter name: selection

    UnityEngine.TouchScreenKeyboard.set_selection (UnityEngine.RangeInt value) (at <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0)
    TMPro.TMP_InputField.ActivateInputFieldInternal () (at <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0)
    TMPro.TMP_InputField.LateUpdate () (at <00000000000000000000000000000000>:0)

    The moment that exception is thrown the keyboard closes on HoloLens 2. This issue has been seemingly around for a long time. This issue should be reopened.

    Same issue in Unity 2019.4.17f1.
    *Note: This issue DOES still occur even if the "Hide Mobile Input" flag on the InputField(TMP or Unity) is disabled contrary to the information in the issue ticket above

    This bug was fixed in TMP 2.1.0, but had other bugs, and has returned for at least Android devices with TMP 2.1.3.

    still not fixed. Using Unity 2019.3 and TMP 2.1.0 with UWP for Hololens

    Is there any related bug report for Unity.UI? Any progress in any release notes? This issue seems very unresolved to me. Using Unity 2019.x and TMP 2.1.0 prev 14.

    In fact, the whole text input in Unity is so broken, that it's nearly unusable! Such a basic thing should receive much more attention!
