*> I find it almost unfathomable that anyone would want to write apps for Android.* Really? All because you can't do one thing? So writing a keyboard app isn't your thing... Write some other kind of app.
*> But I'll wager $20 that no one can show me a Softkeyboard example that allows one to alter the background image of keys independent of other keys.* I don't know how they did it, but if you look at the Swype keyboard they have 5 keys with a different background than all the rest. The shift, sym, delete, enter, and custom Swype key all have a blue background while the rest of the keys have a gray background. BTW, I only accept cash and PayPal... :-) Thanks, Justin Anderson MagouyaWare Developer http://sites.google.com/site/magouyaware On Tue, Mar 22, 2011 at 10:47 PM, trans <[email protected]> wrote: > Well, my attempt at creating a Keyboard app has come to a disappointing > end.
