How to use Mac keyboard while Simulator keyboard is on the screen

We can connect our Mac keyboard in Simulator using this:

Hardware -> Keyboard -> Connect Hardware Keyboard

However, then the keyboard on our simulated iPhone device hides. Is there a way to use Mac keyboard while the simulated iPhone keyboard is still on the screen?

Thanks the others for asking but "Uses the Same Layout as macOS" didn't change anything in my case.

The solution was to check "Connect Hardware Keyboard" and then "Toggle Software Keyboard (command+K)".

1.you connect keyboard press Shift+command+k

2.press command+k for both show and hide keyboard.

3.you can also use this type.

--> select simulator

--> Go to hardware -> keyboard

--> check Uses the same layout as macos and connect hardware keyboard.
