@Andrea Azzar, would it be in the realm of the possible to implement an option in caribou/gnome-shell where the people who still want to use it, can turn off the auto popup feature (the one where caribou pops up whenever an editable area is selected). Leave it to us to swipe the bottom of the screen to bring it up?
If you implement this function, I think 3/4 of the people wanting to disable OSK will no longer have an issue with it as currently, it pops up at the slightest provocation and I think that's annoying alot of people. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1723857 Title: onscreen keyboard appears whenever i touch touchscreen Status in GNOME Shell: Confirmed Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in gnome-shell source package in Artful: Triaged Bug description: Impact ====== I'm in 17.10.
