AltGr / Alt+Ctrl modifier support for physical keyboards

Open radimitrov opened this issue 2 years ago • 5 comments

External keyboards on mobile devices are fairly common practice when it comes to IDEs so it would be a good feature to have AltGr modifier support.

I think editor supports Alt/Ctrl/Shift keybindings...

Manually hardcoding all possible modifier characters? For multiple keyboard layouts? I really don't think for example an EditText implements it like that. To clarify I'm not talking about keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl+C or Ctrl+V. I'm talking for example pressing the 2 key inputting a ² when AltGr modifier key is pressed. I've attached a video to demonstrate

Okay. I see.

Also contextually related: hardware mouse. Click and drag selection doesn't work. Should I open a separate one for it or just rename this issue?

Same for me. Without proper support for a hard keyboard for me there is no benefit using AndroidIDE. This bug is crucial. Please work on it or offer a workaround.
