Thumb layout on landscape vs portrait
CompletatoThumb layout for portrait view and regular on portrait view is what I prefer and works on regular but not beta. When I switch to portrait with thumb layout set on landscape it switches the layout of portrait and this sux. I love thumb layout in landscape and normal layout on portrait. On regular SwiftKey app this setting works fine but not properly on beta. Please fix this asap. New bug - Keyboard response is slower to type and the keyboard popup when tapping a entry field. Sometimes it does not pull up at all when tapping an entry field in certain apps as well.
Hi there,
I'm sorry, but I am a little confused. Can you try and simplify your issue.
FYI: You can set a different layout for portrait and a different one for landscape.
Hello Ryan,
I think what John meant was (correct me if I'm wrong):
1) In portrait mode John prefers full layout and in landscape mode he prefers the thumb layout, so do I.
2) As he flips the phone from portrait to landscape, although previously thumb layout had been selected for landscape mode, landscape mode gives him full layout anyway. This is what I experience.
3) All the above occurs in Swiftkey Beta only. In my case since I can't really notice the difference between Swiftkey & Swiftkey Beta, I have been using Beta only for almost two months now.
I hope this helps.
Hi. I have already make similar topic on the previous vip forum. I also use thumb layout in landscape mode, but in the portrait I prefer compact layout. The problem is the same. It change keyboard layout in spite of the set options.
Hello,
Thanks for clarifying. I was not able to reproduce this. Does this still happen with the latest betas?
Hello Ryan,
The latest beta fix the problem. It's all good now.
Thank you.
Thank you I saw it happen again this morning central US 10:00 am. So hopefully we are good! I will update if needed
On version 6.5.5.22 the problem is still happening when I change keyboard to Sony Xperia keyboard and then change it back to SwiftKey.
I'm getting mixed reviews here. Is it happening or not?
There was a new beta patch this morning.
The current beta version is: 6.5.5.23
Please make sure you update to this latest version. If the issue is still happening:
List your:
Thanks
On the new beta 6.5.5.23 the issue is still happening. My device is Sony Xperia Z3 Compact with Android 6.0.1.
I was not able to reproduce on a 6.01. Can you please try a fresh install and see if this fixed it.
A lot of times this can sort out any random bugs.
After uninstall and install again problem is still not fixed. Maybe I need to delate folder of this app from my system? But I can not find it.
No, no need for that. Let me dig into this. Thanks for trying the fresh install.
Has there been any progress on this issue? On my tablet, I have it set to thumb view, keypad in middle on landscape mode and just regular keyboard on portrait.
When I switch from portrait to landscape, it comes up in regular mode. When I click the line setting button, it shows thumb selected. When I return to screen, thumb has been set.
Any suggestions?
The bug report has been compiled. It is still being looked into.
