alt-tab with Bluetooth keyboard locks back button
Using swiftkey with my Bluetooth keyboard works great until I alt-tab from a text input field.
It seems swiftkey gets stuck and none of my back buttons (physical button, mouse right click, and Esc) do anything until I select another text input field and then hit back to close the prediction selection.
If I turn off bluetooth while this is happening the swiftkey keyboard pops up on top of everything. Back buttons are still locked and the only way to hide the keyboard is to click a text input field and hit back.
Hi there,
This is the reverse cursor jump, right? Is it perhaps getting stuck on some random bit of UI?
Does this happen in every site/app or only in some?
When you have your BT keyboard activated are just the predictions shown or do you use the full keyboard?
What happens if you try this with the stock keyboard?
The app I've noticed it most frequently is irc for Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.countercultured.irc4android
I've seen it happen in a couple other apps but don't remember which aside from that one.
Just the predictions are shown while using the Bluetooth keyboard.
Other keyboards handle the alt-tab fine, but swiftkey is the only one whose predictions display while using the Bluetooth keyboard.
We'll look into this. BT keyboard issues are tricky, as sometimes it's a hardware issue and general wonkyness with certain apps.
This is still going on, seemingly worse that before.
Seems to happen with anything that doesn't specifically close the keyboard. The official Twitter app, for instance.
After sending a tweet I have to reopen the text field in order to unlock the back buttons.
