Termux-app: restore previous shortcut layout

Created on 13 Feb 2019 · 5Comments · Source: termux/termux-app

Hi, first of all thank you for this app, it's really amazing ! :)
Since the last update, the icon shortcuts changed. There is no more the left and right arrows which is really annoying since I can't move forward and backward :( (yes with Ctrl+b/w but that's incredibly tedious and inconvenient)

Could you add the left and right arrows ?
Thanks

I think you are talking about the extra-keys row.
You can specify which keys you want to have by putting it in ~/.termux/termux.properties. See https://wiki.termux.com/wiki/Touch_Keyboard#Extra_Keys_Row for an example and some more information.

The extra-keys array of arrays in ~/.termux/termux.properties is a very nice thing which I gladly adopt :)
However, since I did, all the keys I requested dispatched in 3 rows appear but the "textual keys" like CTRL, PGUP and such appear weirdly, only the two first letters of each appear atop each other.
All the buttons are crammed to the left of the screen except the last on of the last row which is in the middle ...
Weird
My config is :
extra-keys = [['ESC','/','-','HOME','UP','END','PGUP'],['TAB','CTRL','ALT','LEFT','DOWN','RIGHT','PGDN'],['~', '|','`','(',')','[',']','{','}','<','>']]
in ~/.termux/termux.properties
