Allow Typing mode Keyboard #187
Comments
Keyboard handling in AVNC is slightly different than what you normally expect from Android text views. Because VNC protocol works on individual keystrokes, we have to disable some features of Android input mechanism. Basically, AVNC pretends to be a dumb text view without support for caret, text selection, word replacement etc. This might be the reason why your keyboard is stuck in tap-to-type mode. Can you please go to Settings > Tools > Key test in AVNC, and see if swipe typing is disabled there too? |
Yes, swiping is disabled in Key Test too I also have RealVNC installed. RealVNC defaults to my normal swipe keyboard, and allows switching to tap-to-type for entering things like passwords |
#117 (comment) will add an edit box, which should allow you to use swipe keyboard. |
v2.5 is now available with this change. |
Normally I use a gesture type keyboard for everything. But the keyboard also has a "password entry" mode that disables gesture typing and forces tap-to-type. appears AVNC is stuck in this tap-to-type mode by default, without anyway to change it
My request is that AVNC allow the keyboard to default to gesture typing mode, and allow the user to switch to tap-to-type if the user desires
