Anysoftkeyboard: Increase Hitbox for Spacebar

Created on 26 Jan 2020  路  6Comments  路  Source: AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard

I have noticed two issues with this keyboard on my device:

  • for me, it is difficult to hit the spacebar on this keyboard. Even with 2/3 of my finger on the spacebar, it will still default to the key above. I wish even just half my finger on the spacebar would result in a key press or at least not result in the letter above being pressed. On the rest of the keyboard it favors the lower row when I press between keys. It would be great if the spacebar did that as well.

  • also when trying to press spacebar and accidentally pressing the letters above, I will sometimes instantly get two copies of a letter, which I never want on a single key press

Does anyone else encounter these issues? Is there something I am missing perhaps?

I'm forever hitting '.' instead of the space bar.

I also have a hard time hitting spacebar sometimes...

Similar to #1390, #1834 and #2020

Should this issue be closed since it's already possible to pick a different bottom row?

@Slion, no because even though we have a few options indeed, none of them fits my needs and others' needs as well apparently.

Please increase the size of space key I keep on pressing. Instead of space.
