Yes, it is a feature, though I can imagine it might be somewhat confusing at first. That jumping is our attempt to deal with desktop environments not (yet) optimized for screen keyboards. We wouldn't need it if it was guaranteed that text entries could never end up below Onboard.
** Changed in: onboard Status: Incomplete => Fix Committed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to onboard in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1325026 Title: window position jumps on high-dpi screen Status in Onboard on-screen keyboard: Fix Committed Status in “onboard” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: When hovering with the mouse over onboard, it occasionally sets its window position again and thereby jumps upwards. For example: You move and scale onboard to cover the lower part of the screen (screen: 3200×1800, onboard position: [0,1000], size: 800x3200). When hovering the window to type a key or when changing the onboard settings, the window jumps to half the coordinates ([0,500]) and it then occludes the middle of the screen. This happens especially when it is docked to the bottom of the screen and expanded the width, but I've sometimes also experienced it in windowed mode (undocked, with decorations). org.gnome.desktop.interface.scaling-factor = 2 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 14.04 onboard version: 1.0.1-0ppa~t amd64 (from ppa:onboard/stable) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/onboard/+bug/1325026/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
