portrait keyboard
 
Hi,

Who can make a new portrait keyboard for maemo?
I have heard about Fastsmsevo, but its more a new text message app than just a basic keyboard.
the idea is to make something like Iphone, Opera browser 11 keyboard:

and:

Thanks!

Graag gedaan!

Like the option of showing a layer when pressing a key. This makes it clear which button is pressed . . . just like the opera keyboard.

If you install CSSU (maemo community update) the use CSSU Features configuration and enable force rotation.. This will let you use qwert on screen keyboard in portraid mode.
Try it and post results.

I use fastsmsevo because there's no alternative, but it's far from perfect. Besides being incredibly slow (yes it is much faster after the initial load but still frustratingly slow), the UI isn't good on it and it's caused a bug so when typing a number in the phone app itself it's invisble unless you tap in the box.
I'd love a decent UI portrait keyboard

likewise but also when using fastsms in conversations words become invisible. a fatal flaw. was ok on last cssu but on newest just bad...

Seriously, guys! Use the search function!

This has been talked to death and it is NOT going to happen, at least not anytime soon.

FastSMSEvo works and u can force rotate the standard QWERTY which is just about usable. The stock keyboard is CLOSED source meaning no portrait support can be added.

Also why not go and see if you can contribute towards FastSMSEvo with UI ideas ect. Instead of making a new thread on something that has already been discussed numerous times!
