I accidentally posted the following as a duplicate of this bug. The new bug is marked as duplicate.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On devices with small display resolution like WVGA (800x480) it is critical to save as much of the available display space as available.
Since it is also important to have large areas to touch when using (capacitive) touchscreen, onboard must be largely scaled in order to be well usable.
To solve this conflict it would be nice to include a mechanism in onboard that will scan for the need of an input device (e.g. when cursor appears in a web browser text field) to show onboard in such situations and to hide it once the input procedure is finished.
As this could also be useful to users of big display devices but will not be perfect in any case it might be good to add it as an option like 'auto mode'
Best regards
