Hi to all,
When I have an entry and I hit enter from keyboard ( my device has a physical keyboard ) or click on on bottom right corner on virtual keyboard it appears a sort of overlay but when I tap again on any entry it will automatically hide.
Any of you faced this issue ?

    Hello,

    Yes, I can reproduce this issue. It is by design.

    This overlay will appear when you are using a physical keyboard, if you click up, down, left, and right buttons, you will find some places that are covered by the overlay. In other words, this overlay reminds you that some place is pre-selected. When you click Enter, this place will be selected.
    In order to show the pre-select effect more clearly, you can create a TabbedPage or Shell for testing. When you click the down, left, and right button on a physical keyboard, the tab will have an overlay and click the enter button, this tab will be selected.

    Best Regards,

    Leon Lu
