Greetings. I downloaded the newer Fleksy yesterday and the new layout will take me a little while to get used to. Does anyone know if there is a way to increase the size of the Fleksy keyboard toward the bottom of the screen? I like the addition of the buttons across the top, but if the keyboard area's size could be increased then that would help me in the transition to the mainstream Fleksy app.
