You mean Heliboard? How does multi lingual supporth get enabled? On Swype i was able to swipe in up to two simultaneous languages, and it would always figure the language my swipes were in. Can this be replicated in Heliboard?
I'm wondering the same. Sure would be nice.
EDIT: And I found it a minute after my post lol. Inside Heliboard, go to settings, find languages, don't use system languages. Add your main language, then tap it and a "hidden" menu will come up. In it is the multilingual option. Tapping it will enable you to add another language to the same Heliboard language.
Lol sure i have that enabled. What i meant is, there were keyboards that typed in BOTH LANGUAGES SIMULTANEOUSLY. As in depending on the swipe gesture it would match to the best likely word of the best likely language. You could type each word on a different language and it would auto magically switch languages. And it was working beautifully. On good ole Swype keyboard, back in the day.
Yeah, that's what I interpreted. That's what I enabled with the steps I mentioned. I have the English keyboard enabled in Heliboard. I tapped on it, and added Polish in the "multilingual" section.
I both typed and swiped to właśnie zdanie (this exact sentence) i słowa w nim (and the words in it). Simultaneously.
Added is a screenshot for reference. If you meant something completely different (like letter gesturing?), sorry, I don't follow.
Nooooo waaay!! I missed this completely! Dude thanks so much! I had no idea this was possible.
