The new key switches to any installed "voice" input method.
If several input methods matches, no effort is made to choose.
Might misbehave with some input methods other than Google's on API < 28.
It is placed on the middle of the arrows on the bottom bar. It is
enabled by default and can be removed in the "Extra keys" option.
The key is not removed from the keyboard if no voice input method
exists.
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.
A new option allow to choose a secondary layout, the switching key is
placed on the top edge of the space bar.
The "Programming layout" option was basically doing that but it was
possible to choose from a few layouts only. It is improved and renamed.
The 'LayoutListPreference' allows setting the string for the first entry
but otherwise share the rest of the array.
Add nice icons from materialdesignicons.
The Fn+switch_numeric shortcut might be hard to discover or too slow for
heavy users.
A location is allocated for the key so it has a consistent placement.
This reverts commit b85b67c2f0.
The Ctrl key was too hard to use in the new position, especially in
combination with arrows or backspace.
Leave the switching key in the numeric layout however, where the Ctrl
key is not very useful. Put Ctrl on the top-right because bottom-right
is where the switching key is in the other layouts.
Allow specifying a layout for programming and add a key for switching to
it easily.
The switching key is placed on the top edge of the space bar.
The option has no effect by default because the ergonomic isn't ideal,
it needs to be enabled explicitly.
Users of Latin-script languages certainly prefer to use one layout (for
programming or not). This feature might be removed in favor of a better
language-switching mechanisms in the future.
