Why does a dialler pad come up when I want a numeric keyboard with symbols

[Android Central Question]

When trying to put a price on an item for sale in facebook , I get a dialler pad coming up on my pixel 2 screen which does not allow me to input symbols or decimal points or other characters. Why doesnt my normal alphanumeric keyboard come up .

There's probably a toggle key at the lower left of the keypad -- look for the key that has a bunch of symbols on it.
