Quick Accent Remove Toolbar

Open CH-NZ opened this issue 3 years ago • 11 comments

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Unsure if this is a bug, user error or a feature request... Quick Accent is fantastic! I often get left with the Toolbar open when it's no longer needed. So far the only workaround I've discovered to resolve this is to quit PowerToys.

Scenario when this would be used?

It would be useful as it would remove the toolbar when it's not required.

Same issue here. Sometimes the toolbar gets stuck with no way to close it other than disabling the feature.

I seen that several times. I think I have a solution about that, but need time to put it in place and test it. Hope it will be ok for the new year :)

I do have the same problem. Latest PowerToys running v0.77.0 Character set is set to German only

The problem: Sometimes the toolbar position gets stuck, showing the last used character (ü, ä, or similar ones) for ever and ever, ever. Solution so far: I just type another character (ö or the same one again ä)

What I wish for: Get rid of the bug, or make an option to just not showing the toolbar at all.

I often see this happening as well (version 0.79.0). Annoying as the only solution I've found is to pull up the PowerToy settings and toggle Quick Accent off and on again.
