9 years ago I've added support for configurable keyboard swipe gestures, by default "swipe
down" closes the keyboard.
Try v1.28rc13 or later from
http://code.google.com/p/hackerskeyboard/downloads/list, and please let me know
if this works for you.Original comment by Klaus.We...@gmail.com on 31 Dec 2011 at 8:31

9 years ago I also have the Kindle Fire, thank you for adding the swipe-down to close
keyboard function. Unfortunately it does not work 100% of times: I use Dolphin
browser - it works for some websites eg. google search but not others eg. this
website "Search" box.
Is it possible you make the "close keyboard" action into a button like the
Kindle Fire keyboard, or make this action available with a combination of keys
eg. <Esc> <down> buttons?
Many thanks.Original comment by sixofsp...@gmail.com on 11 Jan 2012 at 4:34

9 years ago The swipe down action is currently a bit finicky to trigger, I haven't looked
into adjusting the sensitivity thresholds yet. Are you sure it's really
dependent on the application or web page, or is it just having problems
recognizing the gesture consistently?
In recent prereleases you can also bind actions to the Volume Up/Down hardware
buttons which tends to work much more reliably. These bindings are only in
effect while the keyboard is visible, so it shouldn't interfere too much with
normal use of the volume keys.
Adding a specialized "close keyboard" key to the onscreen keyboard will have to
wait for customizable keymap support (issue 13) - it's something most users
don't need, and in the current system it would be very messy to add the key
conditionally. Patience please.
As another alternative, there's already support for a persistent notification
that can be triggered to open the keyboard. If the notification works on the
Kindle Fire, it would be easy to change it into a toggle that closes the
keyboard if it's already open.Original comment by Klaus.We...@gmail.com on 11 Jan 2012 at 11:46

9 years ago That (the notification toggle) would work in a lot of cases. Unfortunately,
my main use case is when using ConnectBot fullscreen, which also hides the
status bar. Having the keyboard displayed here stops the normal tap-to-show
for status bar and soft home/menu.
The swipe to hide IS working well for me, though, on the Fire (I haven't
tried on other devices), in ConnectBot. As nice as a hide button would be,
I now consider the keyboard totally usable for me. Thank you!

9 years ago [Bulk bug update] The new Market release 1.29 includes the changes from the
v1.28 prerelease series, and these "FixInTest" issues should now be fixed. If
not, please reopen the bug with additional information. If the original bug
covered multiple separate issues that aren't all addressed, please open new
bug(s) for the leftover ones.Original comment by Klaus.We...@gmail.com on 13 Jan 2012 at 9:29

9 years ago [deleted comment]Bulk update - changing "Fixed" to "Verified" for old bugs.
(Background: I'm changing the "Fixed" status to be considered open, the next
steps in the lifecycle will be the closed states "FixInTest" and "Verified".
This lets me mark issues as "Fixed" in commit messages without hiding them from
the issue tracker.)Original comment by Klaus.We...@gmail.com on 22 Jan 2013 at 7:33
