Public bug reported: The pin code are usually digits only but the specification allows alphanumeric chars and some device use letters
The current design shows an osk in pin/number mode with an key to switch to "letters" https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bluetooth?action=AttachFile&do=get&target=phone-bluetooth-pair.png That's not something ubuntu-keyboard currently supports though (see bug #1430264), so we currently display a standard full keyboard (e.g qwerty type). That's suboptimal since in the vast majority of cases the pin code is made of numbers. We could maybe workaround a bit that in the Ui, defaulting to a pin-mode osk and having a checkbox in the UI to switch to a full keyboard? ** Affects: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Low Assignee: Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) Status: New ** Summary changed: - [bluetooth] lack of osk support doesn't make the current pin pairing implementable + [bluetooth] lack of osk support makes the current pin pairing design not implementable ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: ubuntu-system-settings (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Matthew Paul Thomas (mpt) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1430265 Title: [bluetooth] lack of osk support makes the current pin pairing design not implementable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-system-settings/+bug/1430265/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
