Changing "function key" bar does not always work

[AlainKnaff]

There's this black bar with control keys, cursor keys, macro commands etc. on top of the keyboard.

Its contents can be changed with the red button on its left hand side.

However, this changing does not always work. This happens especially often when the terminal has just been started and the keyboard is still minimized.

The black menu with the various variants (ctrl, cmd, fns, nano, scr) does pop up, and the choice under the finger is highlighted in red, but after releasing the finger, the set of function keys shown does not change.

Hey, thanks for the bug report!

I'm not able to reproduce this on the desktop, and unfortunately don't have a device to test on. Could you give us some more info as to what device you have, and if the bug is still present?

In my Terminal the bar is in the bottom.

It has occurred less frequently recently, but I cannot say for sure whether the problem is gone entirely...

The bar is between the terminal proper and the keyboard (i.e. at the bottom of the terminal, but at the top of the keyboard (if keyboard is deployed))
