This forum and Google Keyboard

[Christmas themed thank]

This forum seems to work horribly with Google Keyboard. Autocorrect doesn’t seem to work properly for example.

Typing this on Google keyboard misspelling words on purpose and it's fine...

This came up on the mobiles forum. Hit the 'Y' looking wrench icon top-right of the text-reply box to turn off all the funky formatting (next to the Tx icon). Works fine then. You can set it to that in your preferences too.

Does it with SwiftKey too

Thanks for the tip.

It's from the rich text editing - mobile devices don't seem to like it for some reason

That's so much better... This has literally been bugging me for months!

Try using the double tap space-bar to create a fullstop and see the full stop come up in the wrong place.

This only seems to happen on this forum. Any MODs or anyone else wish to comment as to why?

Double space to fullstop works fine here.

Double space to fullstop works fine here.

On Google Keyboard?

Try removing the full stop and then try again.

I had this problem with SwiftKey ages ago on Xenforo forums, but it went away by itself and is still OK.

My S7 and the wife's S9 both having issues that I had raised in the mobiles subforum. a d instead of and seems to be a common one but I can't delete it from the suggestions like you can with some words.

This is annoying as anything, you're typing away and it just randomly scrambles letters. Switching off rich text editor kind of helps, but you lose the format buttons and smilies etc.

Is there a mobile keyboard that works with this rich text editor thing?

 

[andy_mk3]

I've had this a couple of times with Swiftkey, but it goes away as randomly as it comes.
