Budgie: Screen keyboard option in gnome-control-center doesn't work

[Ken T]

(As seen in the latest daily build of 32bit Ubuntu Budgie)

Under "universal access", various features work as expected (e.g turning on high contrast, or large text). However, pressing the toggle button for the on-screen keyboard has no effect.

Please note that another Ubuntu Budgie user has noticed this issue also - see comment #5 from Bug #1687900, dated 6th October 2017.

Further, this bug is possibly related to Bug #1726453.

Thanks,
Ken.

the settings only write a key, if that's not being handled by budgie then it's a bug there

Budgie does not handle any accessibility options. The v10.x series never will.

May do in future budgie-desktop v11 work. As and when the new upstream infrastructure handling v11 issues is created, then such future wish-list items should be added then.

As such, marking as invalid since it isnt an issue that can or should be tracked via launchpad.
