--------------- ubuntu-keyboard (0.100+17.04.20161214.1-0ubuntu1) zesty; urgency=medium * Add custom opacity setting (LP: #1647603) -- Michael Sheldon <[email protected]> Wed, 14 Dec 2016 15:10:52 +0000 ** Changed in: ubuntu-keyboard (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Apps bug tracking, which is subscribed to ubuntu-keyboard in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1647603 Title: Add option for semi-transparent keyboard Status in Ubuntu UX: Fix Committed Status in ubuntu-keyboard package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: OK, this is not a real bug, rather a characteristic. But one that can be easily solved, thus I'd like to make a feature request. Especially in the landscape mode, the onscreen keyboard takes up a large portion of the screen. Potentially it can overlap the window where the text is being typed into, so you cannot see what you're typing. This could be VERY easily solved by letting users to set transparency level for the entire onscreen keyboard. Attached is my concept of maliit keyboard at 70% opacity on Ubuntu Touch phone, in landscape windowed mode. UX fix In System settings, the on screen keyboard option will allow a user to set the opacity for their OSK. This will be a slider in the on screen keyboard option in system settings, with the options to set opacity from 50%-100% To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu-ux/+bug/1647603/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-apps-bugs Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-apps-bugs More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
