Hmmm ... I changed keyboard.cpp to look like this (never mind I
could've used a case structure):

And then I changed etc/default/Trolltech/PredictiveKeyboardLayout.conf
to use these characters, but it seems that "\x" notation is only
interpreted correctly in the "Others" keyboard, on the other keyboards,
the symbols don't show as expected (empty spaces are used instead).
Any hint is appreciated ...

This is great - and might be what's needed to convince me to move from my
now-ancient QTE 4.4.3  to the latest and greatest!

Thanks to everyone for all the hard work on this - it's clear that Nokia
desupporting QTE was the best thing that could happen to the FR.

I understand the concern, but when you type in a sentence (or multiple
sentences) and you need punctuation characters, you're gonna need a
lot of sliding ... so I would bring the most used keyboards under 3
buttons as well. I'll try it, and if it clutters too much, I'll remove
it again. I can always leave the code in, and just disable it in the
layout.conf file ...
For the buttons, any suggestions? I can take any html code ... see
http://cityofstrife.net/hexcodes.html. For uppercase/lowercase, I'll
use an "fat arrow" up/down (x21E7 and x21E9), but what to use for
letter symbol, special char symbol and cipher symbol?
In the letters keyboards, I'll add: up/down, special char, ciphers
In the special char  keyboard, I'll add: letters (lowercase), ciphers
In the ciphers keyboard, I'll add: letters (lowercase), special chars

That was my first attempt, but it seems that that menu has nothing to
deal with the keyboard itself. It just sends basic signals like
create/destroy to the widget and sets up the next one.
Anyway, toggling/untoggling predictability is not something you do that
often I guess, and it works ok with the diagonal slide.

I'm having harder time in showing some graphics on the keyboard to have
a feedback from that action.

ciao,
leonardo.

Hello Leonardo and Franky,

I haven't tried out your changes yet but they sound very useful. I would
also prefer the three switching buttons suggested by Franky. I think when
putting them e.g. at the far right, they wouldn't really fill up the space
too much or make the other keys too small.

Another idea: Wouldn't it be possible to toggle the predictability of the
keyboard through an option in the context (options) menu? By putting a
checkmark in front you would also have a visual information about the state.
I think this should be possible because when changing to the undocked
keyboard the option "Change input Method" changes into a submenu.

we could use the other three diagonals. I think it's better then filling
the keyboard with more buttons, or it will end up like matchbox keyboard.

btw, I also added code for a backspace key. I *know* that you can slide
to the left for backspace, but if you want to delete an entire
sentence (or just 10 letters), this becomes ridiculous. Therefore: the
backspace key is to be found in the same group as the return key.
I've updated the current image with it.
Now just some buttons to quickly go from letters to ciphers and to the
sentence-characters (".","?", etc...). Instead of always needing to
slide up and down ... There's place for at least 3 extra signs on the
letters screen, I would use them for "uppercase" (and in the uppercase
version: "lowercase"), "numbers" and "sentence-characters". This would
work more reliable and quicker than the basic sliding ...

Well, it works, but it takes the first word you type as beginning of a
sentence (and thus capitalizes it), even if you correct a sentence and
restart in the middle ...

true, but sliding to the right accepts the word as well ...

I didn't have time to check your patch. Anyway you cannot avoid a way to
"accept" a word. If you slide right, you put a whitespace, if you click
on the bar you accept the word and you have a free whitespace. I've
noticed also that while you wait for the animation to end, you can type
new letters, so you don't waste time.

I've checked it quickly, it doesn't seem really easy, I should get more
ocnfident with Qt. I hope I will have time to make it visible.
Is it better something like a "p" on a corner or a very short popup
saying "unpredictive"?

that's what it does. When you  accept the word you have a whitespace added.

capitalization doesn't work really ok. Well, it just doesn't work actually.

Something I've noticed that could be improved is that if you type a
single letter and you want to accept it it's quite hard to touch with
your finger the letter, since it's quite little. I guess this is
inherited from the predictive keyboard. It would be better to make the
whole bar reactive instead of the single letter.

Hi Leonardo,

I've changed your patch a bit:

- no more dictionary updates for non-predictive keyboard
- disabled the animation for non-predictive keyboard (where the
  selected word was "pulled" into the correct place, it is nice but a
  bit overkill and too slow).

Please check it out, I provided a .so file here:

http://github.com/liedekef/qtmoko/commit/f818d487e3552e9b9832a9f5942ddfc3a2330031

I've already build a new image with this (not online yet, since I'm
setting it up on a new space). A visual hint for prediciveness would be
nice, but I leave that up to you :-)

And a question: wouldn't it be more logical to add a space by default
after each word? It was like that once I believe ...
Also, the capitalization is not working that good, maybe that can be
off as well, or maybe that can be another option (left-bottom=>
right-up stroke + visual confirmation).

never mind ...  wrong copy, ok now :-)
Although I still believe no dictionaries should be updated when in
non-predictive mode. I would also like not to have to click on a word
before being able to enter a space and continue to the next word, so
default accept would be nice as well in unpredictive mode ...
Probably KeyboardWidget::acceptWord() and OptionsWindow::acceptWord()

Hi Leonardo,

it seems prediction is still being used ... I'm a dutch speaker, and it
seems that when I enter the word "van", it predicts it to
"een" (because that word is in my personal prediction dictionary, from
before the changes).
If prediction is off, you should disable the use of any personal
dictionaries as well, as well as disabling saving to a dictionary.

Well, I just get a network timeout. Maybe the server is down?

[QT*] unpredictive keyboard

2009-04-25 Thread leona...@lilik.it
Hi list,

I've changed strategy on the unpredictive
qtopia/qtextended/qtextendedimproved keyboard.
Instead of patching the matchbox keyboard I've changed the original
qtopia keyboard. I've stretched it a little to make it larger and higher
and i made it unpredictable. I added another gesture: if you slide from
bottom-right along the diagonal to up-left you can toggle prediction.

here you can find the binary and the patch.
http://leonardo.lilik.it/wordpress/2009/04/26/qtextended-keyboard-made-unpredictive/

the patch is on Franky's git tree but I guess it works with any Qt*
since the keyboard doesn't seem changed at all. The binary is for the
qt-extended-improved I'm using..

two improvements are possible:
 - give a visual feedback when toggling prediction on/off
 - well, there are three more diagonal gestures that could be used if
you have ideas.

now matchbox seems quite useless.

feedbacks are most welcome.

ciao,
leonardo.
