Well, so far I'm making great progress on this.
The Zoom Out hardware key launches Xkbd (it still would be nice if I could just touch the screen to launch it though) and the Enter Key sends a Return signal and then closes the keyboard.
I've got a really weird issue though.
I know that none of you boys here really use Xkbd but I'm hoping someone might have a clue to what is happening with my problem.
Launching it without any apps and the keyboard is on top of the screen, just like it's needed.
Launching it with Xterm in window mode and the keyboard remains on top.
However, if I launch it with Xterm or Roxterm while they are in full screen mode, for some reason, the keyboard drops to the bottom of the screen.
I have no clue why it does this.
Could someone please ponder a guess as to what might be causing this issue.
I would be so very, incredibly thankful.
The pattern is always consistent whether I type out my script in Xterm "/usr/bin/tfkey" or use the hardware key to launch it.
Here's my command to bring the keyboard onscreen.
xkbd -geometry +65536+65536 -k /media/mmc2/N800/Keyboards/Full.xkbd
And yeah, I've tried it with different -geometry settings but none of them take if Xterm is full screen in the background.
Cheers.
