Those keys are already in the keyboard. The key just to the right of the "123" symbol key, with the apostrophe on it - contains accented letters.

Not all of them, of course, but a lot of them. Definitely has the two you wanted. (Also, you can change the language settings in FastSMS itself, which might mean you may be able to get different language-specific accented letters in the main layout too.)

I'm quite back
I'm not going to quote everyone but I'm trying to answer to all last messages...

New Languages: I can add new latin-based languages easily, check first post in "FastSMS" thread to discover what I need. I absolutely can't add new languages(that I don't know) without support.
I'm planning to add also support to non latin languages, strating from greek, but here I need a collaborative people to understand the language...

New Layout in qwerty: As before I need support from people, but I can easily add they. A lot of people ask for something and then disappears: sorry but I only know italian and a bit of english

Bug@reboot: I noticed the same thing while trying to first start vkb in conversation in portrait. ATM you have to start fastsms from icon, don't close it, and then use conversation, or mail or etc as normal (fastsms will be hidden after the first use of the vkb)

Symbol: I will add this layout and also a "smile" one. I have to say that in qwerty there are few symbol still missing and while using the T9 layout you can modify plain.txt or the first part of your language.idc

hildon-desktop: I will try to manage this adding the features to autostart fastsmsevo at boot time (this may also fix the problem linked to first start in conversation) but please consider that restart hildon-desktop is not an every-day task

Hey,

Is there any chance of that touch screen vibration when using your keyboard?

It seems to have slipped from the conversation but its still a really desirable feature.


Also, possibly as some future improvements you could:
  • Implement the option to add a new word to the dictionary
  • Add a dictionary and text prediction for the QWERTY keyboards
  • Add a settings menu applet so we can configure the Virtual Keyboard


P.s. I am going to try and get some knowledge of the settings applets and I might POSSIBLY be able to help you out with that one.

But not until I have some more free time though. Unfortunately Im swamped with college work

Do you mean an option to enable/disable vibration ONLY in vkb? (For example: no vibration while using touch screen in apps, but enabled while using the vkb)
However I will look on how use "tactile" features and perhaps one of my friend will join in this project, so we can speed up the work...

A menu already exists in fastsms, but perhaps you mean something different...BTW I will try to add very soon a way to access it from vkb

EDIT: yes to first point. Second one is hard to answer: I can't use the factory dictionary due I don't know how access it using Qt, but I can try to use the T9 one

Yeah, so basically. I currently have no vibration on apart from the 'tactile' plugin which the CSSU has made more useful.
I would like your keyboard to have a vibration feedback when I press the keys.
But I dont want to have vibration feedback on in other apps.
ONLY on your keyboard.

It should be a D-Bus Command but I am not sure what the command is.

I didnt realise there was settings for it in the FastSMS app. That solves my issue. I was talking about a VirtualKeyboard settings applet in the Settings area of Maemo, but if you can configure it using FastSMS then there is no point.

Looking forward to the Add Word option from your VirtualKeyboard.

Hmm, well the dictionary for the T9 in your keyboard would be perfect to use. Don't need to use the standard maemo one.

As long as we can add words to the QWERTY dictionary as well, unless it uses the exact same file as the T9 dictionary.

I'd like to add FastSMSEvo Settings also in Maemo Settings area, but I don't know how manage this
When a lot of other things are fixed/implemented I will look to this...

Yeah probably need one of the CSSU guys to help out with this one, they seem to be the masters at implementing things in the existing maemo system stuff :P

Yeah they are definately busy, but it might be worth dropping MohammadAG a PM asking about how to build a settings applet?

So will you look into how to get the Vibration working on your keyboard?

Would need to be

Code:
Keyboard Opened
Executes D-Bus Signal to enable touch screen vibration
Keyboard Closed
Executes D-Bus Signal to disable touch screen vibration
