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.
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.
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
Add an option for specifying an XML layout description as a string.
The option is a bit rough at the moment:
- No documentation, users have to be aware of the keyboard's code to use
this option.
- No error are shown, the layout will fallback to qwerty on error.
Themes can define the color of each borders independently. Every borders
must have the same width for now. It's possible to set a different width
when the key is activated, thought this is only used to remove borders.
The 4 themes are updated to take advantage of borders.
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.
Similar to 'qwertz' but is wider to show äöü on dedicated keys. Some
punctuations are rebalanced to use the space better.
The default layout for de_DE is changed.
Allows to add more keys to the keyboard from a predefined list.
The implementation doesn't use MultiSelectListPreference because it
doesn't seem possible to change the item layout to properly show the
rendered symbols.
Modifiers can be locked with a long press. The key repeat mechanism is re-used
and the press timeout is the same.
Every modifiers can be locked that way, not only the "lockable" ones.
The previous behavior can be enabled in the settings (for shift only)
but the default is changed.
Bring back the "Vibration" option.
The duration option isn't added back because the vibration settings are
still handled by Android. In fact, the option has no effect if the
vibration are disabled in the system settings.
This partially reverts commit ef03dfed5c.
Since SDK 21, applications can set the background color of the
navigation bar. This is normally simply an item in a theme but it is
more complicated for keyboards.
