Public bug reported: I installed Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver development branch Onboard 1.4.1-2ubuntu1
An onscreen keyboard comes installed by default, but it's not very usable * Lack of buttons https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755987 * Pipe doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755985 * Uppercase is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755983 I tried changing the settings for the onscreen keyboard, selecting the "Full" layout (instead of "Compact"), but found the settings did not take effect even after a reboot. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755988 Then I ran onboard from the launcher, and the full keyboard appeared at the bottom of the screen *constantly* and resized the rest of my screen smaller. With the full layout, uppercase works, and so far it seems fine. However now whenever I click on any window that has a text input, the buggy compact onscreen keyboard appears over the working full layout onscreen keyboard. I actually like the behavior of the buggy compact onscreen keyboard's ability to show/hide as needed vs the full "onboard" keyboard displaying constantly. So right now it's a bit of a mess, sorry if I should have reported each issue as part of a single bug report. Desired outcome: 1. The automatically displayed keyboard should respect the settings (eg: the layout) set by onboard-settings. 2. If I run onboard manually, meaning it stays at the bottom of the screen constantly, another instance should not automatically pop up over it. ** Affects: onboard (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- 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/1756013 Title: 2 instances of onboard onscreen keyboard running and settings only applying to one Status in onboard package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I installed Ubuntu 18.04 Bionic Beaver development branch Onboard 1.4.1-2ubuntu1 An onscreen keyboard comes installed by default, but it's not very usable * Lack of buttons https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755987 * Pipe doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755985 * Uppercase is broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755983 I tried changing the settings for the onscreen keyboard, selecting the "Full" layout (instead of "Compact"), but found the settings did not take effect even after a reboot. https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/onboard/+bug/1755988 Then I ran onboard from the launcher, and the full keyboard appeared at the bottom of the screen *constantly* and resized the rest of my screen smaller.
