(The delay before it opens is bad for my use case) i *think* i know what you want, but i'm not 100% positive. could you do up a small mock-up? doesn't have to be pretty, just show exactly what you're wanting. what i'm thinking of based on your description is a simple Label with a solid background (rounded corners, though, of course ;) with the text in the middle of it; it would be a child of the keyboard, but hidden whenever a letter hasn't been pressed. when a letter is pressed, it can be shown and positioned manually into the right position (Corona::popupPosition might even be helpful there). children can move freely outside the scene rect of their parent. so this should be easy enough :) > So (sorry, I don't know the way), can I move this into kdeplasma-addons and > do the further development there - or do I have to go on in kdereview and > ask again? other than a few little things, it's ok as far as i can see. so i'm fine with it moving. however, it's supposed to spend at least a week in kdereview (preferably two) so others can have a chance to review it. there's no rush in this case (4.4 is a long ways out :) and you can continue to develop it in the meantime ... so let's say that if by next Monday there are no objections voiced you can move it into kdeplasma-addons :) -- Aaron J.
