When editing questions make keyboard-input-mode equal to question-language #151

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Start app
2. Start to study a package
3. any question open the Edit-dialog

Google-Keyboard appears.

On the space-bar it shows the most recent used input-method
(e.g. English (US) / German etc)and apparently it uses the Word-List
containing the Words that belong to the recent used 
input-methot-language.

Problem: the most recent used input-method-language may not be the 
         same as used for the current question to be edited.

For example:

I use 1 Package per Language-Combination 
German_English_Filename

and the same list but language reverse

English_German_Filename as a second package (file)

So when I learn German_English and the most recent used input method
for google-keyboard was German - everything is great

BUT - and that's the problem - if the most recent used input method
was English instead, but Questions language is German, most words 
of the question will be red-underlined because the wordlist behind
obviously isn't German but English - and vis versa

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Google-Keyboard-Input-Method should be automatically switched to the 
language used for the current question (if question is English - Keyboard
input method should automatically be English - if question is German 
keyboards input method should automatically be switched to German)

Same for other language pairs...

That would be a great help

The KING-Feature would be:

when editing questions: make keyboard input-methode switch to the 
question-language
when editing anwers: make keyboard input-method switch to the answer-language

both automatically...

What is the AnyMemo version (E.g 8.999.1, 9.0, 9.1.1)?
9.999.1

What is your Android phone model?
Google Nexus 10

What is your Android version?
4.2.1

The answer is, unfortunately, no. Android doesn't have a way to change input 
method programmatically according to Google employee

Sorry, the application can't change the global IME.
