Apr 06 05:41:54 <Juesto> Oksana: iirc it uses something like that
Apr 06 05:42:47 <Juesto> I'm sure Leste will support this on the near future
Apr 06 05:43:01 <Juesto> improve*
Apr 06 06:32:25 <Juesto> Oksana ?
Apr 06 10:50:30 <sixwheeledbeast> having a full keyboard removes the need for auto complete for me. if anything I would type out and then spell check over auto complete.
Apr 06 10:52:00 <sixwheeledbeast> I suppose ideally it should function but not something I would use unless a more functional portrait keyboard was implemented.
Apr 06 10:56:57 <Vajb> I agree to that. Actually i hate autocomplete
Apr 06 10:58:36 <Vajb> only way to make portrait keyboard more functional would be to emulate old numeric typing method with autocomplete
Apr 06 11:05:44 <Maxdamantus> I've kind of been meaning to try to just make a full-screen transparent overlay with some sort of swipe-based input.
Apr 06 11:06:47 <Maxdamantus> eg as a simple example, instead of tapping the "1" key multiple times to get "abc", you could just slide east, south east, or south for 'a', 'b' or 'c'
Apr 06 11:07:30 <Maxdamantus> though I probably wouldn't make it based on the "abc" order.
Apr 06 11:07:43 <Vajb> sounds good
Apr 06 11:08:12 <Vajb> or kind of submenu under some group of letters
Apr 06 11:08:34 <Maxdamantus> in any case, I'd like a UI that doesn't depend on interaction with toolkit libraries.
Apr 06 11:08:57 <Maxdamantus> so the user would just do something to enable/disable it at any time, instead of it appearing when a text input gets focused.
Apr 06 11:09:45 <Vajb> terminal is kind of pain when keyboard is closed
Apr 06 11:09:49 <Maxdamantus> (since the latter thing is kind of a concept specific to mobile-based UIs, and I prefer the idea of not having mobile-based applications)
Apr 06 11:10:04 <Vajb> like if i wanna open url it just pops up virtual keyboard
Apr 06 11:10:17 <Vajb> url from irc that is
Apr 06 11:10:42 <Vajb> maybe some button combo
Apr 06 11:10:54 <Maxdamantus> Heh, I just disabled the virtual keyboard somehow.
Apr 06 11:10:57 <Vajb> like power plus vol down
Apr 06 11:11:27 <Vajb> isn't it disableable from menu?
Apr 06 11:11:29 <Maxdamantus> seems like it would be quite annoying having the terminal resized as the vkb appears too.
Apr 06 11:11:46 <Vajb> ah i forgot rezising feature
Apr 06 11:12:31 <Maxdamantus> with the overlay idea, it shouldn't need to resize, and optimally the keyboard would be translucent enough to see the terminal but opaque enough to still type.
Apr 06 11:12:52 <Maxdamantus> presumably as you get used to it, you could just make it so it only appears as a grid
Apr 06 11:12:58 <Maxdamantus> or even not at all
Apr 06 11:13:34 <Vajb> sounds like some perverse idea to familiarize one with android ;)
Apr 06 11:15:48 <Vajb> hmm just realized that numberpad in phone has letter under numbers
Apr 06 11:15:57 <Vajb> letters
Apr 06 20:10:22 <ravelo> Hi
