[Libgdx][Android] Zoom camera onto text field when tapped

Is there a way of zooming onto a text field when it is tapped? At the minute when my players tap the text field, the on screen keyboard covers it so they can’t see what they’re typing :-\ I was kinda hoping the whole zoom on focus thing was built in to Android ;D . I’m currently not using any kind of camera for my game as it’s very simple and doesn’t need one.

I’m sure there’s some sort of way to give the text field an uneditable flag. If suggest using a camera because you just have that much more control I’ve the application. When they double tap, assuming you have that detection covered already, just get the center of the field and then use an interpolation function (lerp) until it fills the screen, or zooms into some preset value that you like. There’s probably some native way in android though.

I was hoping for a native Android solution but if not, I guess I’ll have to use a camera. Surely other people have run into this before, no?
