 Your new keyboard is essentially the key to survive on the current screen
 as it doesn't cover anything. Now with qtmoko apps there is always the
 topbar on and usually the bottom bar to either close it or to get
 additional options. I don't know if this is feasable but maybe clicking
 top left (or some sliding movement) would show the top bar (usually i
 don't need to know about time and gsm reception when I eg use the internet
 browser) and may something similar for the bottom bar: eg. it would only
 appear if you swip from bottom left to bottom right.

I was thinking about something like this too. I have no idea how difficult 
would it be to implement something like this, but it would be nice...

 best regards and thanks again for all your efforts. do you already have a
 release date for the gta02 version with the new keyboard in mind?

The keyboard is now nearly done. I think i will do v45 once the keyboard is 
done.

Radek

AFAIK it does not support running in fullscreen, but it should be quite easy 
to implement this. Maybe i can give it a try, or someone else want?

hi radek,

that would be awesome. maybe this is the right time to start a discussion on
how the screen is best used by the applications in general. I borrowed the 
iphone of a friend to see what makes it so easy to use. these are my conclusions
a) the screen is bigger
b) the cover has no elevated edges around the screen so you can use the full 
screen
c) all buttons have at least the size of the pinki tip (if I remember correctly
our smallest finger is called pinki in english

as we cannot solve neither a) and only with new cad files maybe at some point b)
the best for an application would be to run always in fullscreen. Your new 
keyboard is essentially the key to survive on the current screen as it doesn't 
cover anything. Now with qtmoko apps there is always the topbar on and usually 
the bottom bar to either close it or to get additional options. I don't know if
this is feasable but maybe clicking top left (or some sliding movement) would
show the top bar (usually i don't need to know about time and gsm reception
when I eg use the internet browser) and may something similar for the bottom
bar: eg. it would only appear if you swip from bottom left to bottom right.

best regards and thanks again for all your efforts. do you already have a 
release date for the gta02 version with the new keyboard in mind?
