FR: reduce/remove amount of text on spacebar
Hi all,
Herewith a minor request (say opinion):
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. It is not related to a problem. More of a design improvement: I have recently enabled multilingual typing for Dutch and English. By enabling this the space bar notes "Nederlands - Engels" (Dutch - English). This is rather a lot of text, which looks a bit crowded on the space bar. (See screenshot). (A13, OBv7, AsusZenfone 8)
Describe the solution you'd like Improvements could be:
- Add the option to hide the text in OBs settings (because I know what I have selected in the language settings), or;
- abbreviate the language names (NL - ENG) (like Gboard does if I remember well)
Use case N/A, aesthetical improvement
Describe alternatives you've considered see solutions
Additional context N/A
It is a minor improvement though. Overall I'm very happy with how OB works and looks now!
When the text is too long, it will automatically switch to displaying the abbreviations. I increased the padding a little, so the text has a little less space (previously it could reach the very edge of the space bar). However I'm not sure whether this is enough to switch to abbreviations in your case.
I have tested this in v9. Indeed the padding is not sufficient to abbreviate (but by eye the padding seems also the same?)
Regards
fixed with 8ca65aebc9d754fb381f6cb2bf26c97dbdedb498 (use e.g. as text).
