Be nice to add return or a key to decimal keyboard (or all keyboards).

The decimal keyboard provided by iOS does not include a dismiss key. You could add your own Done button using Jérémie’s iosdesignextensions.

For a toolbarbutton to close onscreen keyboards:

You can add a MobileToolbarButton and give it the caption “Close Keyboard”. Name it ButtonCloseKeyboard

When the textfield or textarea receives focus, ButtonCloseKeyboard is enabled.

In the toolbarbuttonPressed event, you have this code:

Var a As String = button.Caption

Select Case a  
Case "Close Keyboard"
  myTextArea.ClearFocus
  myTextField.ClearFocus
  ButtonCloseKeyboard.Enabled = False
End Select

In each textarea or textfield, in the FocusedReceived events have this code:

ButtonCloseKeyboard.Enabled = True
