"Back" action when closing keyboard not working

[TBog]

I don't think this is fixed properly:

• Enable "Back" action when closing keyboard" on a Samsung S5, Android 10: the keyboard is closes with the Back button, but it does NOT trigger the "Back" action.
• Disable "Back" action when closing keyboard" on a Nokia 3, Android 9: the keyboard doesn't even close, i.e. the Back button is blocked completely. (Enabling the option does trigger the "Back" action on this device.)

I hope this will be fixed by PR #275

[TBog]

@ltguillaume can you check if it's fixed on v6.12

[ltguillaume]

Just checked the first point on S5: still the same issue with 6.12... Will check the second point ASAP.

[TBog]

Then maybe commit 345f2fa will fix it.

[TBog]

please try v6.12-dev.1

[ltguillaume]

Yes, this fixed it! Thank you 😁

Oops! This introduces a new problem! When scrolling down through the list, the keyboard is hidden, but then the Back action is immediately called as well (which in my case triggers the widget mode). So, I can't scroll through the result list anymore...

fixed with commit 489924a
I just hope I didn't introduce any other unintended features (bugs) with this commit 😁

[ltguillaume]

Haha, we'll get there 😋

I'm not sure if that commit will also tackle the following:

1. When trying to change the icon via the context menu, the dialog immediately closes after opening, because the keyboard is closed first, which triggers the Back action.
2. When trying to pick an icon from an icon pack and pressing Enter after I typed the search term, the keyboard closes, but this also closes the entire icon picker dialog (i.e. the Back action is triggered).

Thanks for reporting, I'll check it and see if I can make a new dev release

FYI, both (1) and (2) are still present in 6.14.

Thank for pointing it out, I'll try to reproduce the issue on the emulator.
I understand why it would happen, just need to find a good way to fix it.

[ltguillaume]

These two issues have been resolved in the 6.14dev1 release, thanks!

In 6.15, "Back" action when closing keyboard stops working completely after a while. It's hard to reproduce, but it's there nonetheless. Once it's starts happening, it doesn't matter if I flick the option off and then on again, I have to close the launcher in order for it to start working again.
