Bug Description
GNOME has a toggle switch for the onscreen keyboard.
How to enable the setting
=======
Method 1
--------
From GNOME Shell, open the Settings app (gnome-
Click Universal Access.
Turn Screen Keyboard On.
Method 2
--------
Once at least one universal setting is enabled, you can click the Universal Access menu in the top right of the screen to turn Screen Keyboard On.
GNOME originally used to always show this menu, but some people complained. You can set the menu to always show up in Settings>Universal Access>Always Show Universal Access Menu
Method 3
--------
Both methods just toggle this gsettings value:
org.gnome.
Request
=======
I would like Onboard to be a drop-in replacement for GNOME's caribou screen keyboard. For that to happen, I think Onboard should respect the Screen Keyboard setting.
Hmm, onboard ships an autostart file (like caribou) does except the Exec line is set to in=GNOME, GNOME-Classic: GNOME --startup-delay=3.0
Exec=onboard --not-show-
Is that still needed?
