New #phosh #squeekboard landed in #postmarketOS! Handles fractional scaling significantly better now! The keyboard still gets smaller, but it stretches to fill the available space rather than wasting space with black bars and making the keys even smaller. I hope that fractional scaling eventually will not impact keyboard height at all, but this is already a huge usability upgrade.

This is at 150% scale:

I personally would like to see a bit of seperation between the alpha keys and the other keys (spacing, color difference). Looks good otherwise.

@minecraftchest1 I went with the orthogonal layout on purpose as it is easy to get the spacing and it allows cramming more keys onto the screen without making some of them too small to press. I'm not sure squeekboard offers the ability to set key colors in the layout files, but if it does I agree, having the letters a different color would be nice.

Can you adjuat the padding between rows? Having a bigger gap between the number row and alpha rows would help.

@minecraftchest1 I think you can by messing with the key size values, but I like it the way it is. I am using 100x100 for the key size. If you make that smaller, the labels get bigger.
