New virtual keyboard Plugin with windows layout

madmax88 · Sep 6th 2019

Hello

new virtual keyboard is new keyboard for enigma2 based on windows layout.

The keyboard has a lot features in additions to google suggestion and search history as option.

common languages are already installed but any world language can be installed from menu

-some graphics and ideas based on e2istream virtual keyboard

the keyboard for now designed to use by developers and image builders but do not try to replace the system virtualkeyboard.py because the system will not boot

many shortcuts are avaliable,blue to to toggle between history and suggestion,button previous and nextpage to remove space

new language can be installed from men

to use the new keyboard just as the old keyboard

from Screens.NewVirtualKeyboard import VirtualkeyBaord

any one free to use it or develop it more.

EDIT BY MOD

And something is also deleting the search history upon exit too, but I'm buggered if I can see what.

I do not have this problem

however attached new files and history should be fixed

new design

OK, as people have been asking whether I can include this in my plugins.

And then me referring them over to this thread and asking them to install it themselves.

Thought I would give this plugin some TLC. Not full TLC, but quite a bit :). I have touched very little of the code, as it's not my plugin. Tidied some up though. :quiet:

New modern skin sd / hd

New flags sd / hd. Ameded code to pick up standard country names. i.e en_UK.png

pep8 python code clean up

Shortened the list of countries to the main enigma2 country list (did we really need 163 countries?)

Redone all the icons and buttons

Added the virtual keyboard setup back to the plugins menu, not always easy to find in system menu, depending on your image

New plugin icon

Replaced "del" text with image. It's clearer with a graphic.

Replaced left right arrows with graphics as the unicode doesn't always work on all images depending on default font.
Included all the main language keyboard layouts into the ipk. So no need to download.

Add author(s) text to bottom of keyboard. Don't want to be upsetting people. Credit where it's due.

Note this plugin only works on images later than Jan 2020.
