Bug Description
Hello, this is a list of missing feature I have with my ubuntu touch in french.
* When I try to select the text inside the TextBox, (Let's say : "48months.
* If I am in a Textbox or textArea, and I have a mistake (let's say I have enter a phone number "0669....") and I want replace "06" by "+336", With my finger it's pretty hardl to get right after the "0". There is no way to refine the cursor. For example if I stay longer press, it does not pop me a loupe to be more accurate, or I do not have arrow in the keyboard to move the cursor character by character. So to replace my number is the real nightmare.
* When I accidentally click a Textbox there to no function to remove the keyboard that just appear.
In the french keybord, an important character is the : ' (apostrophe). And it's not present on the main keyboard page, I have to go in the second page
* When I want to type a word with an apostrophe like "l'autre" but as I type "lautre" it will not guess the word ...
The keyboard is very strict, it doesn't allow mistake, I mean if type "avzc" instead of "avec" (in french keyboard the "z" is just beside the "e") it will not correct the word.
* The french auto-corection is not good, for example it doesn't know this word (because it have a special character) : "ça".
There are several different issues reported here, which will make them impractical to track and resolve. I’ve re-targetted the bug at the ubuntu-keyboard project, for the OSK-related issues. Would you mind filing a separate bug at https:/ /bugs.launchpad .net/ubuntu/ +source/ ubuntu- ui-toolkit/ +filebug for the text selection issues, and move the relevant information there? Thanks!
