Comment 1 for bug 1239753

Hi Martin,

The ubuntu-keyboard emulator provides this but you of course have to have the maliit-server started with testability as well as having ubuntu-keyboard-autopilot installed.

If you are able to satisfy this prerequisite than the code looks like this:

>>> from ubuntu_keyboard.emulators.keyboard import Keyboard
>>> kb = Keyboard()
>>> kb.dismiss()

I'm not sure if it helps you much at this stage but it's a possibility.
