Add symbols to number row #926

Closed skylinestar1986 closed 1 week ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Currently, long pressing a number will popup alternative characters like superscript and fractions. I want it to behave like a normal computer keyboard, which is to show symbols too.

Describe the solution you'd like Add symbols to number row.

Use case Long press the character 1 will suggest ! (besides the normal superscript and fractions)

My use case would be adding subscript numbers and encircled numbers:

₁₂₃₄₅₆₇₈₉ ①②③④⑤⑥⑦⑧⑨

It's possible by editing a custom layout and playing with the "Select popup key order" and "Select hint source" settings.

The only non-customizable row of numbers is (unfortunately) the one in the symbol view.

Can the symbols just replace the fractions and superscript? I rarely use them and even then, there are simpler alternatives.

Number row is customizable is the next release, so you can set whatever popup symbols you want.
