[Discussion] Dolphin Keyboard Tweak Thread
 

Introduction
I am so sorry that I make this post so late because at the early version, my tweak is only for friends and some local Chinese users and fufill their needs. Just about a month ago, I also make a English version and have never, never thought that this shxt can get 5,000 downloads and recently, I find some guys are interested in my keyboard tweak. :)

This tweak is modular design? It divides into core/engine ,keyboard layout and words table (.sqlite), you can absolutely use this tweak as a base of your modification.

Summary
This is a modified version of maliit qml files which provides more functions options in one menu, like

1. scalable keyboard height
2. restart keyboard service
3. change keyboard background and transparency
4. multi languages input in one keyboard layout ( don't have to switch from this and switch from that )
5. 4 different toolbars ( arrows, numbers, functions[home, end, ctrl+c, ctrl+v] )
6. an full color emoji keyboard
7. and some other complicated functions for Chinese users
8. how-to-type dictionary ( only for Chinese users )

How-to
This tutorial is quoted from cvp in openrepos
https://openrepos.net/content/sabera...e#comment-8193

and I edit it into paragraph

1. obtain a package of source code of English+

2. rename en+.conf to whatever name you like, but my suggestion would be add a "+" to the default keyboard, like "fl+.conf"

3. edit fi+.conf and change it
name=Finland +
languageCode=FI +

4. then edit Xt9Handler.qml ,
edit line
"language: "EN" to "language: "FI"

5. rename en+.qml to fi+.qml and edit
copy & paste from old "fi .qml" into new "fi+.qml"

edit line
"import ".."" to "import "../dolphin""

add line
"import harbour.dolphin.keyboard 1.0"

6. Add dependency in your package .yaml and .spec
harbour-dolphin-keyboard >= 1.2-2

so it would be possible change languages for average users after installing or it is needed rebuild the app?

Re: [Discussion] Dolphin Keyboard Tweak Thread
 

Dolphin Keyboard is so awesome, been using it for a while now :)

But on 1.1.6 the number row on top of the keyboard is not visible anymore :( You can hit the numbers but you can't see which one you are hitting until you've hit it.

For my Swiss-French keyboard, I modified the files after the install as I have no competences in building apps. :o

Your Dolphin keyboard is great!

SaberAltria, I want ask you something...
I created two keyboards with color emoji based on your keyboard.
1. Simple Hebrew
2. Triple keyboard (Hebrew-English-Russian) with switcher.
