[Bug 1543351] Re: osk with puritine apps
** Also affects: unity8 (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Also affects: ubuntu-ux
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
** Description changed:
we currently can't interact with puritine apps relying on the OSK
- wondering if we could add this ability
+
+ to add this feature in where text-box selection on an xapp results in
+ triggering the osk, in unity8 would be a very large/complicated effort.
+ However, with a manual capability to trigger the OSK this could be
+ achieved.
+
+ For design team
+ one idea was to add a show/hide button for the OSK.
+ realizing this may be undesirable to add another indicator item - a follow-on idea might be to add an alpha button in the corner of the xmir-root window (the window that holds any xapp at the moment)
+ this way the button presence would only be limited to the Xapp interaction.
