KBoard 2.5.5 brings Burmese/Myanmar language support, smoother visual polish across the keyboard experience, stronger clipboard image handling, and several focused fixes that make daily typing feel cleaner and more reliable.

🔍 What's New & Changed

🌐 Burmese (Myanmar) Language Support

  • New Burmese Language Entry: Added Burmese/Myanmar support to the Languages & layouts settings.
  • Myanmar G Mobile Layout: Added the Myanmar G layout as the default Burmese mobile keyboard layout.
  • PC/Basic Burmese Layout Option: Added a PC-style Burmese layout as an alternate option for users who prefer a computer-style key arrangement.
  • Better Burmese Character Rendering: Improved Burmese keyboard sizing and label fitting so complex Myanmar characters and stacked glyphs stay inside their keys more reliably.

🎨 Visual & Theme Polish

  • Solid Fallback Background: Fixed transparent fallback rendering when system blur is disabled. The keyboard now falls back to a proper solid background instead of becoming see-through.
  • Popup Key Clipping Fix: Fixed popup keys getting clipped by the top edge of the keyboard.
  • Improved Key Press Popups: Refined the look and feel of key press previews for a cleaner, more polished typing experience.
  • Swipe Preview Polish: Improved the swipe typing floating preview so gesture typing feels smoother and more visually consistent.
  • Panel Transition Animations: Added subtle fade animations when switching between keyboard panels for a softer, less abrupt experience.

🖼️ Clipboard & Screenshot Handling

  • Screenshot Clipboard Handoff Fix: Fixed stale or unsupported screenshot attachments by caching screenshot images with unique atomic files.
  • Rapid Screenshot Update Handling: Added batch processing for quick screenshot updates and reused cached FileProvider URIs on paste for more reliable image sharing.

⚡ Performance

  • General Performance Improvements: Added internal optimizations and cleanup to improve responsiveness and reduce unnecessary work during keyboard usage.
