Enlarge next keys based on predictive suggestion

Post by droidfan »

The next most likely keys on the the keyboard would be enlarged on virtual keyboard. For instance typing "Wh", the letters "i","e", "a", "o" would be shown a bit larger on keypad. This is similar to what the iPhone keyboard does and contributes to how well that keyboard functions.

It's already in my TODO list, but I didn't want to actually enlarge the keys but only the hit area (I thought it was the same on the iPhone, isn't it ?)

I believe you may be correct when you say "hit area" is enlarged. Great, it is on the TODO. Hope the wait isn't too long. ;)

By the way, is there a doc somewhere? Specifically, I'm looking to understand Autotext/templates I saw someone mention elsewhere in this forum.

Well... I don't have time to write doc at the moment, especially knowing that nobody ever read the docs (yes, some people do, but that's usually the same who don't need to ;-) )

What is your question about AutoText ? You just have to create shortcuts in the AutoText editor (in the settings), for instance "x" -> "kisses", and when you type "x", the keyboard will suggest "kisses" automatically
