[Bug 1577035] Re: [M10 tablet] Dekko can not scroll up when replying in desktop mode
Looks like Penk has done some work in this area already. If you look into his Terrarium project he appears to have a solution to the OSK and other windows.

[Bug 1577035] Re: [M10 tablet] Dekko can not scroll up when replying in desktop mode
On many other systems, this issue was solved by making the OSK appear in a regular window instead of an overlay, and then tiling the window layout. So, it was guaranteed not to overlap anything, and apps didn't have to do anything special to handle scrolling when the keyboard was visible, because the window manager resized the windows automatically. Simple and effective. On a non-tiling window manager this would be more difficult, like unity8 in desktop mode. But I've seen this solved in non-tiling window managers too, by giving some windows an "avoid" property to prevent overlap with other windows. If the keyboard goes along an entire edge of the screen, the WM can mostly pretend the screen is temporarily smaller, which is pretty simple. But that doesn't allow making the keyboard narrower than the screen, so it might be a better idea to do a more complex version of the "avoid" concept. Regardless, it's tricky to do partial tiling in a non-tiling window manager. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577035 Title: [M10 tablet] Dekko can not scroll up when replying in desktop mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dekko/+bug/1577035/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1577035] Re: [M10 tablet] Dekko can not scroll up when replying in desktop mode
Ah ok... I was wondering if Dekko was doing something different to other apps hence this bug being filed against Dekko. I'm not really sure what I can do in Dekko to make this any better. If it's a case of resizing the window or something I think this should at least be done at the toolkit level as that's where it's handled for staged apps, or as Michael suggests possibly at the system level. Asking all app developers to handle this use case themselves isn't going to scale well and there will no doubt be inconsistencies with how each is handled (if handled at all). It will be better to come up with one solution that can be applied to all apps. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1577035 Title: [M10 tablet] Dekko can not scroll up when replying in desktop mode To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dekko/+bug/1577035/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
