The 'ctrl' modmap is different from the other modmaps as it also applies
the built-in Ctrl modifier to the resulting character, even if it was
first modified by the custom modmap.
For example, this will map Ctrl+в to Ctrl+V (not to v):
<ctrl a="в" b="v"/>
This is intended to add keyboard shortcuts in non-latin layouts.
A caveat is that the latin character appears on the keyboard while Ctrl
is activated.
This allows adding more compose sequences without modifying
en_US_UTF_8_Compose.pre.
This is done by grouping sequences files that should be merged together
into a directory. This also allows moving keysymdef.h into that
directory.
* Fix persian's half-space invisibility
* Add a 0.5 space before ظ in persian
* Change the place of چ in persian
* Change the width of backspace in persian
* Rename zwnj to halfspace in KeyValue.java and beng_provat layout
The arabic layout was used as the default on devices where all the
installed languages are not supported by the keyboard. This is not
intended.
This is probably caused by 'getCurrentInputMethodSubtype' returning the
first layout in the list of disabled subtypes in alphabetical or
language tag order.
Re-ordering the subtypes in method.xml had no effect.
Setting 'overridesImplicitlyEnabledSubtype' in method.xml has no
measured effect.
This adds the clipboard pane, which allows to save an arbitrary number of
clipboards and to paste them later. The key can be disabled in settings.
Checking the "Recently copied text" checkbox will cause the keyboard to keep a
temporary history of copied text. This history can only contain 3 elements
which expire after 5 minutes.
If this is unchecked, no history is collected.
History entries can be pinned into the persisted list of pins.
Internally "key repeat" is reword into "long press" when the same
mechanism was used for both features.
The constraint that 'timeoutWhat' must be set to '-1' when no message is
expected has been lifted to simplify the code.
This adds some errors:
- 'script' or 'numpad_script' is set an empty string.
- Multiple '<modmap>' elements.
- 'shift', 'width' and 'height' on every nodes that support them are
clamped to a valid value.
This replaces the switch cases in KeyModifier.java with JSON files, one
for each diacritic.
The number of states increases from 6727 to 7377. The apk size slightly
decreases (around 3kb).
Encoding errors in the compose data compiler due to:
- 'UTF-16' adds a BOM, use 'UTF-16-LE' instead
- 'str.encode' returns a byte array, use 'array' to have a 16-bit char
array.
Parse key names from keysymdef.h, which is distributed with Xorg. The
Greek, Cyrillic and Hebrew sequences referenced these keysyms.
This increases the number of sequences from 2043 to 2668.
Change the compose state machine definition to allow final states that
are wider than 16-bits.
This increases the number of sequences that can be used from
en_US_UTF_8_Compose.pre from 2013 to 2043 (of 3201).
This adds the new 'anticircle' attribute to layouts '<key>' elements
that configure the key to send when doing a anti-clockwise circle
gesture on it.
Labels are drawn the same way as indication.
Updated docs.
This happen when opening the settings from the launcher activity without
ever opening the keyboard.
To remove this bug entirely, the KeyboardData.init method is removed,
the pieces needing initialization are now cached in Config.
This implements clockwise/anticlockwise circle and round trip gestures
inspired by Messagease.
The circle gestures start after a small threshold to avoid making the
regular swipe too hard to aim.
The gestures do:
- circle: The center symbol with Shift applied, with a fallback on Fn
- round trip: Same as the circle gesture but applied to a side symbol
- anticlockwise circle: Nothing currently. It is intended to be made
configurable per-layout in the future.
The new Gesture class keeps track of what the pointer is doing while it moves
on a key. It replaces the 'selected_direction' integer.
- Removing unused information (names and descriptions) from the Emoji class
- Creating a Gradle task that generates a more efficient res/raw/emojis.txt file from the most recent Unicode standard
- Saving recently used emoji preferences as emoji values rather than names
- Migrating old user preferences to the new system
* Hangul support
This works with two new kinds of keys (Hangul_initial and Hangul_medial)
that carry a precomposed hangul syllable and act as modifiers.
The hangul syllables are composed algorithmically.
* Add shift layer to Dubeolsik layout
* 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.
