Environment (please complete the following information):

  • Distro: Arch Linux
  • Gnome version: 45 RC

Additional context
Gnome 45 is fixing some nasty bug in mutter that makes touchscreen rather unusable on the long run. That's why I switched to version 45 earlier even if most of the extensions don't work yet. It would be nice to have working improved touch keyboard in new Gnome.

๐Ÿ‘ This is my must have app as i often need to work with mouse only...

I too miss this extension, I need all the keys when I am in tablet mode.
The best keyboard EVER was the one we used to have at the old times before gnome 42.
Anyhow the one available in gnome 44 was fair enough.
There is a replacement working on 45 but it can't stand a chance compared to this one.

I've ported the extension to Gnome 45 with some reduced functionality. Feel free to have a look at it. It is not in gnome extensions (yet).
