==Requirements== | |||
===Needs=== | |||
* Multilingual text input (ability to switch at least between two languages) | |||
* International (ability to show custom international characters such as accents and currency symbols) | |||
* Key popover for quick access to extra characters (useful as well for above) | |||
* Landscape and portrait orientation (portrait has a better ratio of canvas to keyboard UI chrome) | |||
* Reveal on focus of text input widget entry, dismiss on defocus | |||
* Reveal and dismiss on screen keyboard UI manually | |||
* Slide canvas vertically to keep insertion point visible | |||
* Uppercase alphabet key theme | |||
* Frame friendly (hide frame when keyboard invoked, hide/reveal when frame is revealed/hidden) | |||
* Sugar theme-able | |||
===Would like to haves=== | |||
* Insertion point movement (cursor buttons vs. left/right swipe gesture) | |||
* Additional customisable key/button strips for Activities to provide additional specific features | |||
* Keys for cut/copy/paste – perhaps toolbar buttons are enough already? | |||
* Custom keyboard layouts for specialised input needs (url, numeric, emoticon) | |||
* Predictive text (context sensitive, locale sensitive) | |||
* Square keys | |||
