added standart english layout with german umlauts

[philipp8101]

hey, just discovered this app, seems like a really cool alternative to regular keyboards. (now i just have to get gud on it 😂)
i started out on the English layout, and rather stick with it, so i added the German symbols i need.
i tried it with the debug APK in the emulator, but i cant seem to find the new layout in the selection 😕
many thanks, Philipp

There is already a ENDEThumbKey keyboard, did you try that out?

[philipp8101]

Hmm, I can't seem to find that in the app

Have you considered, making the layouts simple configuration files, that can be loaded in at runtime.
Rather than compiling them in, and releasing a new version for every new layout.

It's called english deutsch bilingual thumb-key.

All keyboard files must be compile-time checked, there are many issues about this.

[dessalines]

Also what version are you on?

[philipp8101]

I'm on 2.6.9 that's the latest on f-droid.

[dessalines]

We're way past that, use either izzyondroid or github to get the newest version.

I'm on 2.7.2 now, and have tried the layout you suggested. What I want is the same layout as "english thumb-key" but with the extra german letters.

[dessalines]

Alright, in that case can you rename this like the other keyboard, but v2? Something like english deutsch thumb-key v2

[dessalines]

I fixed it for you.
