Hi everyone,

You know, if we wanted to change the type of input in the middle of entering text to another input method, we have to tap that small little arrow that appears beside the SIP/Input Panel icon (bottom, middle of the screen) which is the SIP/Input Selector? Well with all rage for finger only input, is there any way at all to have some sort of shortcut to this little arrow/input selector? Maybe have it mapped to a hardware button or have an icon appearing in the task bar or something that is big enough to be tapped with a finger.

At the moment, I either have to pull the stylus out just the change the input method or do some gymnastics with my finger and nail to tap that tiny little arrow which sits very close the to the input panel (which is another problem).

Here you go, install the cab and map it to a hardware button.

I know this is a very late answer, but other might find it useful.

With the sip popped up. Press sip-icon and SLIDE leftwards, this will pop-up the sip selector, and can be done with any finger, even a thumb. :rolleyes:

(Sliding downwards will close the sip, think of it as 'pulling' the keyboard down, a dubblet of just tapping the icon)
