Help Annoying problem...

I'm not sure if this has to do with the Note 10.1 or not but here's my issue: Let's say I'm posting a comment on Facebook, the keyboard pops up and it blocks the message box. That means, I cannot see what I'm typing. Does this makes sense? I'd have to close the keyboard, see what I'm typing, then bring up the keyboard to continue my post.

How do I get around that?
 
I can't remember, but if you pinch the Samsung default keyboard, you can select split keyboard layout. Maybe that will help? Or scroll the screen to bring the message box up?

Sorry, don't use Facebook.
 
I had a same issue - but it was fixed by just swiping the keyboard from top to bottom and vice-versa.

I tried to generate the issue to know the exact fix - but not able to.

Will let you know, if I have any luck.

No. Sometime you cannot scroll up the screen. For example. I'm writing a brand new email. I bring up the email screen, as soon as the put my cursor on the message box, the keyboard pops up and blocks the bottom half of the word. There's no way to scroll up because it's the top half of the screen already. Now when I go to Gmail, the message box us up higher so when the keyboard is up, it doesn't cover up the message.

On Facebook, the comments are always at the bottom of the screen. When I try to bring up the keyboard, it blocks the entire comment box. Again, no way to scroll.

I can't believe I'm the only one having this problem. Either there's a setting that I'm not using or you guys don't think it's a big problem to begin with.
 
I don't think it's just you. I've had that problem with both my original Tab 10.1 & my current Note 10.1. It happens most in Facebook & I've always put it down to a Facebook stupidity & lived with it. I'm just an occasional Facebook poster so I can do that.

Seems like its only on certain web sites then. I dont use Facebook, so can't test it for myself. Does it work on this site? ie when typing a post, can you scroll the background screen up and down? If yes, then its not a problem with the tab. One other thought - are you viewing all sites in desktop view?
