Originated in 

FileMaker Pro 14.0

Description 

In FileMaker Go and Windows, this function returns:

1 if the touch keyboard is enabled

In Windows 7, macOS, FileMaker WebDirect, server-side scripts, the FileMaker Data API, and Custom Web Publishing, this function is not supported and returns 0.

Notes 

In FileMaker Go, the value returned by this function does not indicate the state of the touch keyboard if the active field is a concealed edit box, because FileMaker Go always displays the touch keyboard for a concealed edit box.
