This commit changes the layout of the `eschars` view, in an attempt at
making it more logical and optimized to reach more frequent symbols more
easily.
In order to stay consistent with other layouts, the bottom line has been
re-arranged and keys dimensions have been optimized (based on the
`terminal` layout, which has similar features).
Furthermore, the ç/Ç keys in the 'normal' views have been replaced with
./, so that all diacritics are on the same view.
This commit also fixes the Backspace key behavior.
Due to an excessive amount of keys in the `eschars` view, one of the
rows would overflow the screen. This commit removes the `Ç` key, which
is already present in the `upper` view.
A number of keys would not give the expected result, due to the lack of
a `text` of `action` property. Additionally, the layout wouldn't load
because of an old file format (it seems `bounds` are not supported
anymore).
This patch makes sure this layout can be loaded and used by squeekboard
v0.1.9.
- Preview support for "Control" and "Alt" modifiers in buttons, use field "modifiers: Control" inside a button
- Don't crash when gsettings has an empty list of settings
- Documentation rearrangement
The manager is used for sizing the layer surface. It promises never to exceed half the output height.
The selection of the current layout is not being done here, leading to worse behaviour in 1:1 scaling.
In the future, it could be used for sizing the keyboard itself and the suggestion box, as well as decide which layout to use, because layouts should have some sizing hints.
Control and Alt are special in that they aren't expected to switch levels, and so don't need to change what characters are output.
Use in layouts by adding `modifier: Control` or `modifier: Alt` in place of `text: "foo"`.
The latching of the modifier will force the keyboard to emit raw key presses and prevent it from outputting text.
