I'm just posting an update on the progress of the simple-onscreen-keyboard.
I have nearly reached the first milestone. Entry into other windows is possible, and a three key keyboard is rendered in cairo. The only thing holding me up is trying to prevent the window gaining focus when it is clicked. Could someone familiar with the GOK source code tell me how it manages it? I've been thinking of some ideas on how to handle the layout of keys on the keyboard. One way of doing it would be having a pair of lines or 'rails', which could be curved or straight or whatever. Keys could then be packed into the space between these rails, getting they're size and shape from the shape of the rails and the distance between them. This would allow us loads of freedom on the layout of the keys. One example would be the pair of radial thumb keyboards that the 'ultra-mobile' version of Windows ships with. Ive got exams for the next couple of weeks, so i'm going to have difficulty getting much done until after that. Though i'll try and give us much time as I can. -- Chris Jones jabber - [EMAIL PROTECTED] msn - [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Ubuntu-accessibility mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-accessibility
