Accept touches on notification area #295

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
It looks like the Jellybean LatinIME keyboard includes a hack that extends the 
touchable area of the keyboard into the notification bar area on tablets. If 
I'm understanding it right, this should let it treat touches just below the 
space bar as key presses.

TODO: try this for Hacker's keyboard.

So for ics tablets the area beneath the keyboard is inaccessible? I mean, while 
writing with the native keyboard, by pressing on the notification area (below 
the spacebar) nothing happens but, while using hacker's keyboard, if I 
accidentally touch that area, the keyboard closes and in some cases (like in 
the market review screen) lose and whatever I was typing. I do want to add it 
as an issue but I'm not sure 1.if it's a separate issue and 2. if it's 
addressable at all...
