I like the possibility of customizing the keyboard that came with the latest version of Mather, but I think it wastes the usefulness of the long-tap action. I have a few ideas about how to improve the keyboard, keep what you like and discard the rest. I hope it helps.

  • Use the long-tap action to access a (customizable) "2nd" function of the keys. For example, if I assign one key to the sin() function, I could assign arcsin() to the long-tap;
  • In order to customize the keyboard add a "keyboard customization mode" in the settings menu;
  • Let keys be labelled in a way that is different from their actual function. For example I'd like to have a key labelled "sin" that actually types "sin(", or a key labellel "√" that types "sqrt(";
  • Do not uppercase everything in the keyboards. I want to see "sin", not "SIN";
  • Allow the customization of the number of columns and rows;
  • Optionally show the key outline (it's easier to type!)

You probably already had some of these idea, it's nothing new after all.
Thank you for this app, finally a good, maintained, FLOSS scientific calculator!

Yes, I just haven't had much time to work on it. Contributions are always welcome, however.
