## About the Keyboard Banner
|
|
|
|
Keyman keyboards now always display a banner above the keyboard for one of the following functionalities:
|
|
|
|
* Display suggestions (See "Using the Suggestion Banner" below)
|
|
* Display a Keyman-themed banner so popups and gestures for the top row of keys are visible
|
|
* Reserved for future functionality
|
|
|
|
## Controlling the Keyboard Banner Mode
|
|
|
|
The banner mode can be controlled by going to Keyman Settings --> (select an installed language)
|
|
|
|
At the bottom of the language settings menu are four controls for the banner:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Disable suggestions (Display image banner instead)
|
|
* Predictions only (Suggestion banner displays predictions)
|
|
* Predictions with corrections (Suggestion banner displays predictions and corrections)
|
|
* Predictions with auto-corrections (Tapping the space bar may automatically apply the best suggestion)
|
|
|
|
## Using the Suggestion Banner
|
|
|
|
If a [dictionary is installed](installing-dictionaries) and enabled for the active Keyman keyboard, the banner will display suggestions that can be selected.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
* Drag the banner horizontally to see more suggestions
|
|
* Overly-long suggestions are partially hidden, but expand when a finger is held on them
|
|
* Banner displays up to 8 suggestions
|
|
|
|
## The Keyman Themed Banner
|
|
|
|
When suggestions are disabled or unavailable, the Keyman-themed banner will display instead. This is displayed so popups and gestures for the top row of keys are visible.
