How to turn off “Shake to show Change Keyboard window” on Nexus 5? - nexus-5

Every time I shake my Nexus 5, the Change Keyboard window pops-up.
Please let me know how to turn it off. The Andriod version in my phone is 6.0.1.

Found the issue, recently I installed ICICI app on my phone. Along with this app a keyboard called 'ICICI Smartkeys' got installed which has updated the default behavior for shake gesture on my phone to pop-up 'Change Keyboard' window. Disabling the keyboard fixed the issue.

Looks like you have some malware. Try scanning your computer using the Chrome Cleanup Tool and the free version of Malwarebytes. If that doesn't work, follow this guide.

Electron steals focus to Windows 10 Touch Keyboard and makes it unusable

I'm trying to run the attached project on Windows 10 Pro (latest version available without Windows Insider Program).
Basically it is a fullscreen browser window that navigate to http://www.google.com.
I configured Windows in Tablet mode, in order to let the touch keyboard popup whenever any text field in the page (in this case the query one) gets focused.
Then, I packaged the application with electron-windows-store in order to let electron work as Windows Store application.
When I start the application and Google home page is loaded I'm not able to use the touch keyboard, because it pops up but immediately disappears, like if electron tries to acquire again focus and causes touch keyboard disposal.
I tried also to disable fullscreen mode and setup frame coordinates in order to be as it was in fullscreen, but no success.
Any suggestion?

GitHub Repo
This seems to be related to an open issue on the Electron GitHub repository. You might have to wait for the Electron team to introduce this improvement.
I've managed it. The issue was caused by an old dependency to electron. Once updated it to the latest version I know (1.4.7) it all started working.

Soft keyboard not showing up in my Air application running on Windows 8 (Surface Pro)

I have an Adobe Air app that has some text fields that need input. When I run this app on Windows 8, giving focus to the text fields correctly displays the cursor in the field (and if you use the attached hardware keyboard or a bluetooth keyboard you can type into the fields) however the device's soft keyboard does NOT come up within the app (even though it does come up when I focus into a text field in a regular web form or browser address bar). I'm not sure if this is a bug or if I'm overlooking something that I must manually do in AS3 to provoke the device's soft keyboard to show up when the text field takes focus.
I'm having the same problem for my app for android and ios.
My solution was to use the Textinput component in Flash Pro and export it in my swc file. Works like you'd expect. Softkeyboard shows up in android and ios.

Tap vs swipe event on Windows Phone 8

I'm developing an app for WP8, and I'm having some issues...
When I slide/swipe/scroll my LongListBox in the emulator, the Tap event gets triggered!
How can I differentiate between a tap and a swipe gesture?
This can also be to do with bubbling of events. In Windows Phone this can be easily handled using the IsHitTestVisible property.
It could be a bug with the emulator.
You could always just check for the events when releasing, rather than relying on gestures, so that you can determine if they indeed tapped or swiped.
Alternatively, have someone test for you on Windows 8 to see if it's an actual issue with the emulator.

Air Native Menu

I have an Air windowedapplication with no chrome (but a custom) and main app windows is transparent.
I try to attach a nativeMenu on nativeWindow (or nativeApplication on Mac Os). But as there is no system chrome NativeMenu don't work on windows Os but work well on Mac Os.
As I'd like to have similar look and feel on both Os, is someone has an idea to solve that.
Thanks
There are plenty of information available on NativeMenu at Adobe's site. I'd create the menu and try to attach it to nativeWindow/nativeApplication. If it fails, use NativeMenu.display() method to show the menu manualy if it isn't supported on certain system(s).
Also if you need working Keyboard shortcuts for that menu, listen for Keyboard events.
