Image keyboard support

[netdur]

It is possible to implement Commit Content API using Flutter's TextField or TextFormField or any widget?

I am not sure convert this line

layout.addView(createEditTextWithContentMimeTypes(new String[]{"image/gif"}));

from this code example

This came up internally as well as a question. Could we get a comment on the difficulty of this request? It feels like a fairly large one to be able to insert an image to Flutter via IME.

Is there any known workarounds? This basically prevents using flutter in any app which has chat functionality for younger audience...

Still having a problem with this one. I can't send a gif/sticker. I'm working with a chat app.

Please is there any update on this?

would be fine to at least have a custom callback for special content on TextField. Not necessary to implement full blown richtext editor ..

+1 for the chat use case. Most keyboards have some way to search for GIFs and chat is no fun without all those memes!

I am also interested in a workaround. Not to be able to use images from the Android and iOS keyboards is a major constraint for any communication app.

I'm designing a chat app. Not having this feature just makes me feel like a fool for even attempting to use flutter for this app. And I have already gotten really far, I've developed most of the app, >70% and I can't send gifs or stickers, this is in fact evil of the flutter team.
