Keyboard switch.

cvp

@shinya.ta New version here with 6 buttons:

left, right which seem ok
beginning of document, end of document, up one line, down one line

But the process is not so good as hoped...
I've problems with keyboard.get_input_context that, sometimes 😢, returns texts of previous line, thus no way to compute length of texts at left and right of cursor because the texts are these ones of another line...

Thus, buttons are there, in some cases, it is ok, and in other cases not 😂
I agree that is not so pleasant, but try it at least.
Thanks

@cvp

I'll take a test.

Is it possible to make a page with only cursor movement?

@cvp

The top and bottom buttons don't move.
It doesn't seem to be good if the lines of the "文末" and "文頭" buttons are different.

@shinya-ta Do you know about the built in "track ball" mode of the iOS keyboard? Tap keyboard with two fingers (or maybe long press spacebar, might be different depending on device) then the keyboard becomes a trackball that you can drag around your finger to move cursor.

@JonB Thanks to help me to try another solution 😀 because it is fastidious to develop a keyboard exactly as wanted...

I told you I get problems with these buttons because the keyboard module does not work exactly as expected.

I'll try tomorrow, I stop for today

@JonB

I know that function, but it is very difficult to use.
I would like to use the combination with the braille application I had made first for my wife who is totally blind.
If I can do that, I can become happy with all my wife and I who are totally blind.

cvp

@shinya.ta New version here

But, only to be sure that the layout is what you want. Could you check and try, please.

I didn't understand the new key at bottom right of your picture, where I temporary put "???".

Don't hope the keys do what you want, I've a lot of problems with the keyboard module.

⬅️ = left one character
➡️ = right one character
文頭 = begin of sentence
文末 = end of sentence
⬆️ = up one line, but it is not entirely ok
⬇️ = down one line, but is not entirely ok
??? = no action, and is entirely ok 😂

I've let emoji's line, tell me if you don't want it.

If no news, have a good week-end.

PS For my curiosity, does your wife still use my (big) program for the Japanese Braille keyboard?

shinya.ta

@cvp

"？？？" is delete button.
It means delete in Japanese.
This is also fine with Emoji.
Everything is perfect.

If possible, I want a copy button.

My wife also uses the braille application.
I use a braille application for a simple document and use an existing keyboard for using a difficult kanji.
Therefore, this keyboard application is necessary for long sentences.

cvp

@shinya.ta Could you

post the Japanese characters for delete, is that 左削除
confirm if you want left delete (backspace) or delete at cursor
about copy, where do you want the button, it's text
what is copy for you? Normally, copy is copy selected text to clipboard

cvp

This is a new version With

delete left with the same text as in Braille keyboard app
copy button with copy to clipboard of selected text

Please confirm all and position of copy button

shinya.ta

@cvp

The copy button doesn't work well.
I want to copy the text by one push just like a previous copy button.

When you press "⏩", the following screen will be displayed.

Can you tell me how to get a new Pythonisa beta version?

My wife uses it in the Pythonisa beta version of my iPhone.
I would like to put a beta version on my wife's iPhone.

See https://testflight.apple.com/join/qDkBu2ur
but don't forget we met a problem with the last build 330015. I'm not sure that customized keyboards like Japanese Braille or this one still works in this build. I have reinstalled the build 330014.

You are right, next version will correct it

As described in the keyboard module doc, to copy to clipboard, you have to
authorize full access in
Settings/Pythonista3/Keyboards/Authorize Full Access

@shinya.ta New version

@cvp

I had a full access, but the copy button is invalid.
I can't paste it.
