* Make slider speed independent from swipe distance
Swipe distances other than the default resulted in a slider that were
not easy to control.
* refactor: Add class Pointers.Sliding
It holds the states and the code needed to make the slider work.
'Pointer.sliding' is set to [null] when sliding is not in progress.
The implementation is changed not to depend on [downX] and [dx] but
instead use the pointer's [x] coordinate directly.
* Move the cursor further for faster slides
In sliding mode, compute the speed of the pointer and use it to increase
at which the cursor moves.
* refactor: Separate kind for cursor movement keys
This allows to define a key that moves the cursor more than one position
at a time.
This will be used to avoid lag during fast slider movements.
* Reduce lag when sliding quickly on the spacebar
Avoid sending key events in a loop while sliding quickly in a cursor
movement key. Key of kind Cursor_move are "multiplied", meaning a single
key event represents a movement of more than one position, reducing the
number of key events sent.
This is only for cursor move keys.
Due to the modmap, the cache must be cleared when switching layout to or
from a layout that contain a modmap.
This is broken since 3f6b6fd23, which moves the modmap handling into
KeyModifier.
Thanks to the previous commit, a modifier key can now be more complex
than just a KeyValue.Modifier. This allows a more elegant implementation
of the compose key, that could be taken as a base for other features
(eg. unicode hex entry, hangul)
The COMPOSE_PENDING modifier is removed as keys of kind Compose_pending
can act as a modifier. This has the advantage of highlighting the key
that was last pressed in the sequence.
Rules are added to Pointers: Non-special but latchable keys must clear
latches and cannot be locked with a long press. These rules were not
needed before but were intended.
Allow keys of a kind other than Modifier to be a modifier.
This requires writing a compareTo function for KeyValue. Fields are
compared in this order: Kind, value, flags, symbol.
'FLAG_LOCKED' and 'FLAG_FAKE_PTR' are only used within Pointers.
Define new flags in Pointers and remove these from KeyValue. Also allows
to define new flags.
Metadata directories were renamed while adding store descriptions into
strings files for simplicity.
This interferes with releases so is released.
An hardcoded lookup table is used instead.
Shift locked via the "caps lock" key use the "fake pointer" mechanism
that is also used by auto-capitalisation.
Make sure that unlatching a fake pointer do not disabled a locked
modifier.
The implementation is moved into the Pointers class for a safer API and
easier implementation.
Add éèàç directly to the layout, which removes the corresponding dead
keys.
Remove the requirement for ù and ÿ from method.xml, which are extremely
rare and can be typed via the compose key.
* Relicense layouts under CC0
Layout definitions are licensed differently from the rest of the
application source code to allow use in other projects related or
unrelated to Unexpected Keyboard.
Some layouts are not re-licensed and their original copyright continues
to apply. The copyright notice is added at the top of the files.
* Contributing: Mention layout licensing
* CI: Run 'check_layout.py'
Ensures that 'check_layout.output' is not outdated.
Also, update it.
* CI: Check new store descriptions
When a store description is added, 'python3 sync_translations.py' leaves
an untracked file that is not checked.
This makes sure that untracked store descriptions are noticed in CI.
