`KeyboardData.getKeys()` now returns a map of the keys present on the
layout to their position. Positions are the row, column and swipe
direction.
The computed map is cached in the KeyboardData object as it might be
accessed later by `findKeyWithValue`, which now do less work.
The numeric layout and the optional right hand side numpad are modified
to show the digits belonging to the script used in the current layout.
The numpads are still defined as it was before. The digits are changed
in `modify_numpad` if needed.
Settings defined with `get_dip_pref` had a wrong default value on first
launch.
The "right" default value was used after the shared preferences are
populated.
The new `layouts` preference replaces three previous preferences:
layout
second_layout
custom_layout
Add a preference migration function, which first migration is to
migrate layouts into the new preference.
The migration must also be called from the SettingsActivity as it might
use a different preference store due to the boot-aware preference copy.
This merges the "Layouts" option with the "Custom layout" option.
A custom layout becomes an item in the "Layouts" list among the other
layouts. It's possible to add several custom layouts.
Selecting the "Custom layout" item in the list opens a second dialog for
entering the layout description.
Layouts are serialized as JSON object and are decoded solely in the
LayoutsPreference class.
For each extra key, a list of alternative can be specified. An extra key
won't be added to the keyboard if all its alternatives are already
present on it.
This is useful to avoid having the dead key for an accent and the
accented letters at the same time.
The two layout selection options are replaced by a ListGroupPreference
that allow to enter an arbitrary amount of layouts.
The "switch_second" and "switch_second_back" keys are replaced by
"switch_forward" and "switch_backward", which allow to cycle through the
selected layouts in two directions.
Layouts are changed to place these two key on the space bar.
The backward key is not shown if there's only two layouts.
This is a new section in the extra keys option that allows to enter
arbitrary strings which are then added to the keyboard.
A new string is needed for the title of the section, Android's icons and
strings are used as much as possible to avoid adding more strings.
Keys are stored in the preferences as a JSON array of strings.
The current approach is hard to maintain, for example the last key
"autofill" was not displayed.
This implements a PreferenceGroup that contains the check boxes for
every extra keys without involving listing the preferences in
settings.xml.
A custom layout is used to remove the 'title' text view.
The list of extra keys is moved into the new class.
'ExtraKeyCheckBoxPreference' becomes a nested class.
This function is no longer an hardcoded list of layout ids. It's
replaced by a linear scan of the previously generated array and a new
corresponding array of resource ids.
Added Romanian characters to the keyboard layout and changed the positioning
corner for the secondary characters that were conflicting with the
newly-introduced romanian characters
Added Romanian translations
Allows to define a locale's script in 'method.xml' and use that to add
the extra keys for a locale to layouts of the same script only.
A locale of an undefined script will add its extra keys to every
layouts. A layout of an undefined script will have the extra keys of all
the enabled locales.
On API level < 12 or on some rare cases, `refreshSubtypeLayout` was not
called, making `_localeTextLayout` uninitialized.
This might also happen if `getExtraValueOf` returns an invalid layout name.
eg. `method.xml` contains an invalid layout name.
The newer haptic feedback API that is used instead of the vibrator
service since ef03dfe doesn't work for everyone.
The new vibration option allow to choose both the newer API ("system")
and the older API ("strong", "medium", "light").
A new option changes the "change_method" into the new
"change_method_prev". It switch to the previously used input method.
A long press on "change_method_prev" sends "change_method".
A new section is added in the settings and existing options are moved.
Refactor, follow up of 90b7944. Add a modification step to the "special"
layouts: numpad, greekmath, pin entry.
Remove the apply_key0 function, which is not expressive enough.
Add an enum instead of yet an other "switch_" function.
Send key events for the left or right arrow as the finger slides on the
space bar.
Can be used to select text by holding shift. Works under Termux.
Events are sent linearly as the finger travels. The distance between
each events is defined from the swiping distance divided by 4.
'slider="true"' can be set on a key that have 'edgekeys="true"'.
'key2' and 'key3' represent the right and left keys.
It allowed to modulate the repeat speed of some keys (arrow, backspace,
delete) by move the finger farther or closer to the key.
In practice, this wasn't pratical and doesn't seem popular. It is
removed in favor of a better mechanism for moving the cursor.
Stay on the secondary layout after a config refresh or onStartInputView.
The information is kept until the keyboard is restarted.
Additionally, move tweaking the secondary layout to the Config class now
that physical equality is not needed.
Values like 'characterSize' and 'horizontalMargin' can't be fed back into the default value because they are not of the same unit.
To avoid this happening again, change the way the default value is defined for every options.
The 'key_height' dimension was no longer used.
* Add option for keyboard opacity (transparency). Keyboard background, keys and pressed keys can be adjusted separately.
* Make the borders transparent as well
* Moved setAlphas outside drawKeyFrame to top of onDraw method
