ALT-key without "lift off"

I really like Smart Keyboard Pro but the only thing annoying is that you have to lift your fingers when you press the ALT-key, for e.g. in Germany the "U" to get a "Ü".
Can you make the same way as other keyboards (incl. stock keyboard) that you can slide from the original key to the ALT-key not having to lift the finger and press
again? This removes the "smotheness" of typing in my eyes.

I thought this was not the case in the trial version but not sure. Or is that a setting which I did not find yet?

Thanks for considering.

Android rules :)

I think you want 'slide popup keyboard' under 'advanced settings'.

Thanks for the tip where to look. Unfortunately the German translation is a bit inartfully expressed and "cropped" in my menu.

Topic says "Akzentauswahl in Vorsc" and the description "Wischen im Vorschau-Popup ermöglicht Auswahl von Akzenten". I would replace "Akzenten" with "Umlauten", a bit more precise.
And then maybe change to "Wischen in Umlautauswahl" or something similar not to crop the text or simply "Wischen für Umlaute" as menu item. Maybe it would help others to find this
option...or am I the only guy ;) ?

I knew I had this in the demo activated. No Smart Keyboard is my favorite. Tried already other keyboards in the meantime as this "no swiping" was really annoying for me. But other
keyboards are not that good for my requirements ;)
