[Bug]: First word repeats when using "swype" to type. #3941

Open frankforte opened 4 months ago

frankforte commented 4 months ago

Problem description

If I swipe the words hello world it's a nice day termux will show hellohellohellohellosahellohello The only way to get around it is typing a single character after I swipe each word, then hitting backspace, then hitting space before "swiping" the next word.

Steps to reproduce the behavior.

The issue happens when using "swipe" to type on the command line and in Vim.

What is the expected behavior?

The output should match the input.

System information

Autocorrection and word prediction, T9 and other word-based input methods always would cause issues.

Termux supports only the most basic, character-by-character input. Its terminal is not a text input field.

A workaround explained at https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Touch_Keyboard#Text_Input_View

Excellent. I'm sorry I didn't find this documentation earlier. Thanks for the link.
