### Remarks

Usually, when [TouchScreenKeyboard](/engine/6000.3/script-reference/unityengine/touchscreenkeyboard.md) is open, the text within an input field cannot be selected and modified. For example, copy and paste is disabled. For Windows Store Apps on some devices, it is still possible to select and edit text when the on-screen keyboard is active.
