๐Ÿงช LeanType 4.2.7 Beta (Build 4)

Note

This is the fourth pre-release testing build for LeanType 4.2.7. Please test and report any issues or feedback on GitHub Issues.


โœจ Added

  • System Wallpaper & Blurred Background: Seamlessly use your live or static device wallpaper as the keyboard background, paired with an optimized downsampled StackBlur engine (FastBlurEngine) and adjustable blur intensity slider in Appearance settings.
  • Dynamic Custom Layout Profiles (1-5): Expanded secondary layout architecture with dynamic profile management in settings (add or remove up to 5 custom layout profiles) and unified storage under layouts/custom.
  • Dual-Layer Symbol Popups: Alphabet keys now automatically inherit popups from both Symbols and More Symbols layouts, granting instant access to extended punctuation (brackets, tilde, angle brackets) without switching modes.
  • Progressive Backspace Acceleration: Holding down the delete key now accelerates smoothly from character deletion into word-by-word deletion across both composing and non-composing text.
  • Independent Downward Spacebar Swipe: Added a dedicated swipe-down gesture setting on the spacebar with customizable action routing and configurable vertical distance thresholds.
  • Configurable Toolbar Swipe Gestures: Added independent vertical swipe-up and swipe-down gestures on the suggestion/toolbar strip, neatly grouped under Gesture Typing settings.
  • Prebuilt Gboard Editing Layout: Bundled a standard Gboard-style directional text editing layout (editing_gboard.json) for quick cursor positioning and block selection.

๐Ÿ› Fixed

  • Custom Layout & Shortcut Crash: Fixed RuntimeException: Unknown event in InputLogic when activating custom layout profiles (CUSTOM1 through CUSTOM5), OCR, or long-pressing toolbar keys mapped to custom shortcut keycodes.
  • Selection State in Page Navigation: Preserved active text selection mode (META_SHIFT_ON) during MOVE_START_OF_PAGE and MOVE_END_OF_PAGE actions rather than collapsing selection bounds.
  • Custom Spacebar Popups: Fixed an issue where custom popup keys on the spacebar failed to restore on long press.
  • Functional Key Popup Contamination: Prevented symbol hints and popup characters from contaminating functional keys (SHIFT, DELETE, ACTION, SYMBOL_ALPHA, ALPHA, NUMPAD, LANGUAGE_SWITCH).
  • Split Keyboard Consistency: Enforced split layout geometry consistently across all alphabet and symbol keyboard elements.

๐Ÿ”„ Changed

  • Haptic Feedback Alignment: Aligned gesture cursor gliding and trackball movement with physical keypress vibration primitives and clamped duration boundaries for unified tactile response.
  • Settings Hierarchy Polish: Relocated toolbar swipe gesture options under the primary Gesture Typing preference category for cleaner navigation.
