[Bug 1421812] Re: The letter is missing from the "h" key

 

Did some debugging with Elleo.

I found two ways that seem to make the h key reliably work, both by modifying:
/usr/share/maliit/plugins/com/ubuntu/keys/key_constants.js

and then "restart maliit-server"

1) change fontFamily from "Ubuntu Medium"; to "Ubuntu"
2) change fontSize from "2.5" to "2.4"

interestingly, increasing the font size, I tried 3.0 and 4.0 the h key
still works, so the problem does not seem to be that the font won't fit.
Seems only fontSize at 2.5 with Ubuntu Medium font family causes it.
Changing either makes it work.

I don't notice any difference visually when changing the fontFamily to
"Ubuntu" - looks the exact same to me. So unless we have a more
scientific way to fix this, I'd vote for making that change.
