 DEFECT DESCRIPTION: Please confirm if it is possible (or platform limitation) to add some option in keyboard to do activation and deactivation of predictive test in the same interface of SMS writing.
 
  EXPECTED BEHAVIOUR: The process of activating/de-activating the predictive text imput must be as simple and intuitive as possible. The selected mode has to be kept as default mode and user must be able to change it from keyboard SMS interface.
 
  REPRODUCING PROCEDURES:
 step instructions to reproduce):
 1. Go into DuT messaging menu and edit a message.
 2. Check that the activation and deactivation of predictive mode is as simple
 as possible either by pressing a key or a soft key on DuT.
 3. Check that by default the predictive text is deactivated. 
 4. Check that once the user selects the predictive text, this mode is set as
 the new default mode (even after power cycling the DuT).
 Could you include any option to do activation and deactivation in the same keyboard, for example by doing a long press in the "tab" key.

[Joe Cheng [:jcheng] (please needinfo)]

this seem like a feature request.

Comment 2

[Beatriz Rodríguez [:brg]]

Not a blocker in OBs

Comment 3

[Joe Cheng [:jcheng] (please needinfo)]

per comment 2, tef-, koi? for future consideration

Comment 4

[Beatriz Rodríguez [:brg]]

This issue is not a blocker for the OBs.
If we plan to include a new feature like this, IMHO we should consider to access the whole keyboard settings instead of only predective text setting.

BTW,the availabe space in current keyboard design is not enough to include a new key and make a user friendly setting access, Why dont we use the typing bar(by long press for example) to access the keyboard settings?

[Rafael Rebolleda]

I agree a quick access to keyboard settings would be interesting. However, the current layout doesn't offer too much space for an additional key once several languages are available.

That said, I think we could come up with other solutions involving gestures and/or long-press actions on easy targets like the space bar or the whole keyboard.

Not taking feature request for v1.2 at this moment.

Comment 7

[Bruce Huang [:bhuang] (inactive)]

Not blocking on this for 1.3.  Carrie, are there any plans to include access to keyboard settings directly from keyboard?

Comment 8

[Jan Jongboom [:janjongboom] (inactive)]

I haven't seen any plans in the mockups.

Comment 9

[Carrie Wang [New account: [e-mail]]]

Hi everyone, 

We've included this quick access in 1.3 KB spec and will release it after internal review.
Thanks!

Do we really have this feature planned?

Comment 12

[Omega Feng [:Omega] [:馮於懋]]

No we don't have this feature planned, but still ni? Bruce to confirm it.

Comment 13

[Bruce Huang [:bhuang] (inactive)]

I'm leaning towards having the spec in bug 985851 cover this.
