I remember finding an option in settings that created a pair of buttons in the bottom toolbar (the toolbar that show home and back buttons), for moving the keyboard cursor forward and back. These buttons would only be shown when the soft keyboard was shown. I cannot find this option anymore, anyone know what option I'm talking about and where it is?
I'm running lineageos 18.1 on a poco x3 pro. I have only upgraded to a newer version of 18.1 since using said option.
Nevermind, I found it under: Settings -> System -> Buttons -> Show arrow keys while typing.

I'm running Cyanogen 7.0 and am wondering how to add an extra 4th quicklaunch button (the buttons that appear at the bottom of the home screen) The Androdian theme seems to shows 4 buttons in the picture, however 3 buttons still appear when I switch to it =( Is there an option somewhere that i'm missing? I've been through the menus a few times and can't seem to find anything at all.
Thanks.

I'm on Slimkat Linaro/Sabermod 8.4 and there is no Cyanogen section in the Settings menu.
So... is there any way to disable arrow keys from any keyboard?

Hi All,
When I use Navigation Gesture instead of Nav Bar, the "switch Keyboard" Button is also gone,.
I use Gboard and another third party input, butnow find it very hard to switch around, have to go all the way to setting --languages--
just wondering is there a shortcut / Gesture for switch keyboard?
Thanks in advance
Hi @sd1577956,
I came up against the same issue with my 6T when using Navigation gestures as opposed to either the Android 8 (Oreo) or 9 (Pie) Navigation Bar.
I found that when I tap into an an area that I can enter text and the keyboard appears, a new notification also appears that if I tap it, allows me to switch between keyboards.
Some keyboards (like the native Gboard), also allow you to switch keyboards by long pressing the space bar (but this is not supported universally by third party keyboards in my experience).
I hope that helps,
Got my Gemini on Saturday and just working my way around it.
Was looking at shortcuts for the Gemini Keyboard and found the documentation, however all shortcuts are a combination of a key labelled ? (magnifying glass) plus another key.
For the life of me I cannot find the key that is supposed to be the magnifying glass.
Anyone know which key this is supposed to be
Thanks in advance

I think those docs are for generic android with a keyboard; google has been pushing putting a "search" key directly onto keyboards.
The gemini shortcuts are mostly the "Fn" key plus another, which should be labelled. e.g. on mine (UK kbd):
ESC: "back" key, or hold down for "Power"
Fn+ESC: "power"
Fn+D: Android "home" key (desktop, not to be confused with traditional editing "home" key)
Fn+A: Android "recent" key (App switcher)
Alt+Tab: App switcher (standard android binding)
Fn+C: Volume down
Fn+V: Volume up
Fn+B: Brightness down
Fn+N: Brightness up
Fn+Alt: Phone app
Fn+Del: Settings
Fn+T: Mute microphone
Fn+R: Screenshot
etc.
Hope I am not hijacking this thread, but continued question about Fn usage
How does one get all the "strange" characters from the keyboard?
By strange, I mean stuff like "{}[]`/" and similar ones.
From the keyboard looks (symbols imprinted at the bottom of the key) I assumed its a combo of Fn+symbol, but it doesn't work.
I am using US keyboard layout and set to use Gemini keyboard as input method.

Did you figure this out? I'm trying to find that out now too.
It is [Fn] +'/ ' to bring up the symbols keyboard and you can select them from there. {}[]℅™®©¥¢√π∆~ etc...
Function key

When you use the Gemini Keyboard app to configure the Gemini US English layout there is actually one more step it seems. Once you've gone through the setup you should receive a notification to configure your keyboard. Select this and select the Gemini keyboard and you will be good to go. I ignored the notification for a while, believing it was prompting me to go through the setup process again but that was not the case.
Hope this helps.
I just installed LOS 19.1 on my tablet. This is my first experience with LOS (and Android 12). On my home screent has the normal 3-button navigation bar at the bottom but moves it off to the right and adds toolbar launch buttons in the middle. Is there a way to bring back just the normal old Android navigation buttons without the added stuff?
EDIT: The navigation bar is being displayed over top of apps, so I can't access the bottom part of apps.
Took me forever to find this option....
