It pops up and down from the bottom of the screen when I don't want it to
I have no recommendations for you, I just want to second your opinion that the Gnome on screen keyboard is annoying.
74 2 ReplyThey need to talk Valve into open-sourcing their OSK. It's kind of amazing.
34 4 ReplyThe only amazing thing about it is the dual trackpad typing. Apart from that it lacks keys like Alt, Ctrl, Esc and the F-keys. Sometimes the arrow keys, tab and insert send weird key codes.

On steam deck I switched to plasma mobile primarily because of how bad the gnome onscreen keyboard is.

There is nothing else. OSK sucks on Linux. I wish I knew how to fucking code, I'd make my own.
