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.
Allow items to be of any class instead of strings.
Item serialization and deserialization methods are in a separate class
because they are also used in a static context.
Several non-string keys can have a large label that shouldn't be elided,
for example ctrl, meta, send.
Also, change the cutoff to 3 characters as labels are easily colliding.
The dead-key is replaced by its alternative if there's only one
specified.
Extra keys from every subtypes must be merged together to be able to
make this check.
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.
* Add section mark as an extra key in QWERTY-like layouts that don't have it already
* Add dagger (also double dagger) as an extra key in QWERTY-like layouts
This new class will help write more logs. The LogPrinter is no longer
created everytime the keyboard is opened.
An error log is added if failing to load the custom extra keys.
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.
These symbols have special meaning when in `res/xml` and are escaped in
standard layouts.
The backslash is not stripped when parsed from the custom layout option.
Treat these backslashed keys specifically to allow standard layouts to
be passed back to the custom layout option.
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.
