Compact Keyboard

[Mandark]

Triple posts rule!

I actually think I've underestimated the frequency of periods/commas. I'm now more inclined to think something like this might be better suited:




Any thoughts?

Did you guys get the latest update for the best evolving keyboard in the market today ? Cyril hit it dead on with the better HTC skin, folks. I had to double check to make sure I was using the Smartkeyboard Pro. The key spacing is prefect in my opinion just like the HTC keyboard on my EVO 4G. If not for the lack of navigation arrows (which I happen to love but will sacrifice for ease of switching from QWERTY to COMPACT with just a swipe) I really couldn't tell the difference. So far the text input has been smooth without the usual lag that I used to get when I start to type the first sentence. Haven't had the chance to explore any other possible fixes but if I have any concerns, I'll report back later. But so far, so good. Keep up the great work.
Edit: Still getting the occasional lag at the beginning of first sentence but all other statements hold true.

Which means psychology is important when you develop a keyboard I didn't change at all the spacing of the HTC skin, just changed the mod keys so that they appear in black instead of white as in the original keyboard (but I know that makes a difference)

You could have fooled me I guess you're right about psychology because I swear the change is making a big difference for me. Duh

I love the new layout in the beta but I would like the full stop made the same width as the "M" key as I keep on hitting the "Return" Key. Or even the option to remove the "Return" key as I never use it.

Just my 2 penneth worth.

Love the swipe gesture for next word prediction. Interesting. I wonder what little goodies Cyril has in store for future updates Sometimes with these constant updates, I get scared that he might mess up a good thing but so far he's only added better functional features that are useful. Keep up the good work and keep updating

All of a sudden while in landscape mode the letter " b " looks as if it's been pressed and stuck in the down position if you know what I mean. Has anyone else had this issue and if so, how do you unstick a key on a touch screen phone? Not a problem when inputting but this needs to be reported none the less. Cyril, check this out.

This happened to me a couple of times.
Just restart the keyboard process (or reboot) and it should be fine.

This is the bug reported here
It's fixed in the beta!

Thanks. A simple reboot solved the problem.
PS. Really digging the swipe for next suggestion
