HeliBoard Green Dot (lemmy.world)

I just noticed that my HeliBoard icon in the list of apps has a green dot to the left of the name below the icon itself. I have no idea what it means -- it seems to be different form the privacy green dot you may get in the top notification area.

Also, I've noticed that when I type, not only do some things get underlined in red (I think it's for misspelling), but also in blue. Any idea what that means?

Thank you

Well, when I posted the question originally, I though misspelling underlining switched from begin red underlining to blue underlining. However, now I'm thinking that the different colors mean different kinds of issues being underlined but I can't tell which.

Is it just me, or did the underlining switch from red to blue?

Noob here (and I posted some of this already as a reply o an older post: https://lemmy.world/comment/8190997 )

I actually just installed HeliBoard through Obtainium, and have a bunch of questions.

First of all, I’m confused – I installed HeliBoard_1.2-release.apk . I didn’t really know how HeliBoard_1.2-debug.apk and HeliBoard_1.2-nouserlib.apk were different.

Also, I just installed that and nothing else. It’s giving me suggestions, but no corrections. Is that because I didn’t install any dictionaries? If so, how do I install one – do I just click on the download icon here https://codeberg.org/Helium314/aosp-dictionaries/src/branch/main/dictionaries/main_en_us.dict ? And what do I do then? Sorry, noob here.

On the other languages and autocorrect issues discussed here: https://lemmy.world/post/12769494 – it sounds like it used to have the equivalent of GBoard’s globe icon you could click on to switch languages but not anymore? You have to go to settings and uncheck English and check whatever other language you want to use?

And, it seems like I can do the equivalent of Shift + key on a standalone keyboard (for example, to get 1 instead of Q), but I don’t know how to, or what that’s even called.

Thank you!

Hi, Can't post, it just spins -- similar to https://lemmy.world/post/16458 -- tried replying and posting on multiple posts, communities, etc.

[-] AnonUser@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Sorry to reply to a month-old post, but any news? Also, I actually just installed it today, so have a bunch of questions.

First of all, I'm confused -- I installed HeliBoard_1.2-release.apk . I didn't really know how HeliBoard_1.2-debug.apk and HeliBoard_1.2-nouserlib.apk were different.

Also, I just installed that and nothing else. It's giving me suggestions, but no corrections. Is that because I didn't install any dictionaries? If so, how do I install one -- do I just click on the download icon here https://codeberg.org/Helium314/aosp-dictionaries/src/branch/main/dictionaries/main_en_us.dict ? And what do I do then? Sorry, noob here.

And lastly, on the other languages issue above. It sounds like it used to have the equivalent of GBoard's globe icon you could click on to switch languages but not anymore? You have to go to settings and uncheck English and check whatever other language you want to use?

Thanks in advance!
