3 years ago OTS=One-Touch-Start is the Termux behavior that starts with one tap on the App-Icon (startscreen) all (closed) processes for X11 and other via .bashrc. Unfortunately, the description was deleted, to this and many other topics. So here again with:
echo '[ -z "$1" ]&& . uu.sh . .;t=$PREFIX/tmp X=Xwayland XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=$t;alias t="bash .bashrc"
c="am start -n com.termux" z="$c/.app.TermuxActivity" y="$c.x11/.MainActivity"; typeset -i i=0
z2="$z"; [ -n "$(pgrep m.termux.window)" ]&& z="$c/.window.TermuxFloatActivity"; export DISPLAY=:0
while [ -z "$(pgrep -o $X)" -a $i -lt 2 ];do $y; i+=1;sleep 1;$X :0>$t/TX 2>&1&
$z;done;WM=fluxbox;[ "$1" = 0 ]&& $y;[ "$1" = 2 ]&& $z2;[ -z "$(pgrep -o $WM)" ]&& $WM&'>>.bashrcwill OTS set up or supplemented. Since Float is a separate app, it is displayed in parallel/over Termux but only once (no Window Manager like fluxbox in X11 above). OTS uses as X11-Toggle $y/$z by t 0|2, but $z would be replaced by Float (line 3), if tap on this App and would be displayed over X11. Otherwise Termux start standalone or by TfT, also be used simultaneously over X11 but very weak. Without Split and floating Termux X11-Toggle-Key should be part of EK.
The script uu.sh for OTS not necessary, but does some useful things like device check and double-u (ln -s ../usr u;alias u="bash uu.sh"). So with u ky the EK line(s) is to produced/toggled. Here the script extract with X11-Key (t 0) In line 5:
ky)t=~/.termux;[ ! -e $t ]&& mkdir $t; t+=/termux.properties; d=display; k=extra-keys;p=popup
m=macro;sk="hide-soft-keyboard-on-startup=true soft-keyboard-toggle-behaviour=enable/disable"
lf="{key:LEFT,$p:BKSP}"; ed="$p:{$m:'CTRL d',$d:d}"; eh="{key:END,$p:HOME}"; o=`grep one $t`
nx="{key:ENTER,$p:{$m:'CTRL n',$d:'next'}}"; tp="{key:TAB,$p:PASTE}"; ek=$k-style=arrows-all
kd="{key:KEYBOARD,$p:DRAWER}";x="{$d:X11,$m:'t SPACE 0 ENTER',$p:{macro:'ob ENTER',display:OB}}"
mc="{$m:'mc SPACE i ENTER',$d:mc,$p:F10}" cd="{$m:CTRL,$d:'^',$ed}"; m="#"
if [ "$o" != "" ];then k+="=[[ESC,SHFT,$kd,{key:'/',$p:{$d:'\\\\\\\\',macro:BACKSLASH}},{key:\
'-',$p:'|'},UP,$nx,HOME,PGUP,$x],[ALT,$cd,$tp,{key:BKSP, $p:DEL},$lf,DOWN,RIGHT,END,PGDN,$mc]]"
else k+="=[[$cd,$tp,$lf,{key:RIGHT,$p:{macro:'o ENTER',display:off}},{key:UP,$p:PGUP},\
{key:DOWN,$p:PGDN},$eh,$nx,$kd,$mc,$x]]"; m="#one"
fi ;printf '%s\n' $m $ek shortcut.next-session=ctrl+n $sk enforce-char-based-input=true "$k">$t
termux-reload-settings; exit ;;To toggle back you could open aterm in fluxbox and use command t 2 or other actions (e.g check). The current state of X11-EK contains bugs that do not allow proper update and implementation. Back Toggle to Float is not necessary because it is present at all screens. Therefore, with t 2 the standalone Termux is used.
Addendum Version to X11_02.06 without sharedUserId
This version does not use com.termux and can not be installed as an update, is independent of the Termux version and is started differently than the others. Unfortunately, both the Start and Installation process is more complicated, it almost always comes to cleaved the XClient processes and these are often only as zombies. X11 must be restarted much more often than in other versions. So I do not recommend this version. If you even try, several actions must be allowed in Termux and X11, the action:
x=termux-x11; pkg in $x should not be made but echo "allow-external-apps=true">>.termux/t*.properties
Currently the debug version app.debug is provided together with termux-x11.deb file. The start differs from the above described and takes about five instead of one second...

Again the log of this Device (for compare with yours):
check scenarios
The *Taskbar App examination, was very sobering if I compare this with PiP on my SM-P610, in which nothing is missing and that works very stable. That's why I've never used T:Float. For comparison and to fix possibly bugs of TfT (Taskbar-floating-T**ermux), I've this App (self-build with last updates from @agnostic-apollo) now installed on my Gigaset and tries to understand this App.
Float Readme is not very informative. The permission query after the installation is good (would be good also at T:Widget). First, I describe the check scenarios. The Float App is positioned on the Start Screen between Termux and Widget, so Termux can be started with all three Apps. The normal OTS open X11 with some XClients so that XServer and
sshdServices exist and uniquely the process environment is logged. When Float starts from the start screen again, a fixed quarity picture appears without Extra-Keys (EK) but with OS-KB. The process list is supplemented by a bash that does not appear like widget processes in the Drawer process list.DRAWERpossibility and long tap (inside - not at the top) allows move and scallation (Pinch) with appropriate instructions (good) but no clipboard. The movement beyond the screen, as with taskbar does not work.*) Taskbar on the one hand and Floating/Picture or Android Windows on the other hand are different topics. In the Taskbar App and with Android-with-PiP contained therein (11/SM-P610), both comes only together. On various App/Task Functions (Recent-Task-Key) gestures and much more, which has every phone, I do not go on details here and also the topic session/widget-lists currently has no relation to Float. Here are two more shots, from my Gigaset (above) without Split/PiP capability and the SM-P610:
Shot1 (Gigaset) is with Tap on T:Float, then start of
t cin Float, OS-KB turn off/on in X11 (with Extra-Keys=EK) and change to Hackers KB. Then swich Key-log on incheckand tap onSHIFT+ALT+CTRL(blue). Here Float-Picture is covered by OS-KB (log is hidden but Back-Key remove it) even after pinch to the smalest high of Picture and more critical with non floating gboad-KB_. X11-EK is unusable in Float!Shot2 (SM-P610) Since SM-Android already covers all the features of Float and Taskbar and this can be used for almost all apps, you do not need both apps. Here Float is only for comparison and since the OS already has several task bars, I have not installed this App. Termux is here startet from site-Taskbar (moved to PiP) and OTS open X11 here in Background. Previously the File-App was opened in Picture and is now shrinked to the _blue Icon (also a Taskbar by tap) between 1/2 over the non-floating OS-KB. Float deprives themself to the Picture/Task Management of the OS, so it is initially unclear, what happened, if you tap on 5 of OS-KB - what are you supposed? Both EK are not usable for Float** but OS-KB for all three Apps.
conclusion and possible features
It remains: Float is 100% covered by SM-OS, a reduced variant of Taskbar-Termux-Floating and without parallel Termux, barely useful. Here is Float optically hardly to distinguish from termux. Should as announced all future Android versions have behaved the SM-OS, is unnecessary the Float development. Potentials:
The missing/double EK administration should be replaced by a common, as with OS-KB incusive Float and X11.
Float could also be managed through Widget, which would also solve the problems with Drawer/Session list.
More checks, special effects and misconduct with TfT and Float:
Float only have the opportunity to move the picture inside the screen at the Picture-size, but it can scaled greater than this with pinch. This has the effect that the picture can not be moved or only in one direction. Then, on the right edge, the contents are cut off the content instead of wraps and in height is the prompt often under the real screen and almost always under the non-floating OS-KB. The rotation of the phones often leads to similar effects. As in old Termux versions, the penetrient popup of the OS-KB can not be prevented. Float does not take into account the reduction of the residual surface by EK+OS-KB. However, mostly through skilful inner and outer pinch zooms, the relavant part of Termux can be brought into the visible area. The effects can most often be bypassed long Tap pinch/move. Who that seems to be complotted, should try TfT to return back to Float. In TfT a complete Termux with nomal behavior is used but as soon as the X11 screen is touched or with Back-Key, Termux will removed fron screen and has to reopen by Taskbar*. Move of TfT is only one time after Back-Key and _reopen: possible.
