An example of the multiple newlines (using messagEase keyboard):
i.10 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 i.10 <executed immediately after putting the cursor on i.10 and pressing enter 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 <here the cursor ends up This issue is quite funny, it depends on which keyboard is being used ( although I have never had any issue of this sort in other apps): using messagEase it most of the time emits 2 newlines after each result, using jQt keyboard I get 1 newline after results and using the standard Google keyboard, I get no newline after a result. Actually, when using the Google keyboard, also the recall issue seems to be gone. So I guess the underlying issue is turning a single newline in multiple ones, depending on the keyboard used... I updated after the last notice, JVERSION being : JVERSION Engine: j804/j32/android/release/commercial/www.jsoftware.com/2015-12-22 17:35:41 Library: 8.04.14 J Android: 1.0.0/17 Platform: Android 32 Installer: unknown InstallPath: /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.jsoftware.j.android/files Best regards, Jan-Pieter On Dec 29, 2015 1:41 PM, "bill lam" <[email protected]> wrote: > I'll respond inline. > > On Dec 29, 2015 7:48 PM, "Jan-Pieter Jacobs" <[email protected]> > wrote: > > > > I wanted to mention a few observations I made working with jandroid. > > > > Given the fact on most android devices screen real estate is limited, it > > would be nice to > > > > 0. be able to choose a smaller fontsize > > in startup.ijs , set wd cmds: fontfile and sm font > see jwiki > > > 1. have the scrolling behave as in most android apps, i.e. scrolling on > > inertially when one does a quick flick on the screen > > > > gesture could be done but rather complex, if/when it is implemented, there > will be lots if possibilities. > > > 2. don't emit 2 newlines after results (or at least make it > configurable). > > > > I cannot duplicate this bug. > > > 3. allow for the normal behavior for recalling lines (position cursor and > > hit enter copies the current line to the bottom).
