Fork of Julow/Unexpected-Keyboard at v1.32.1.

New layouts

• Swiss German (de_CH) QWERTZ layout

Bug fixes

• Fix autocomplete firing when suggestions are disabled
• Fix suggestions preferences (auto-space, auto-capitalize) not taking effect until keyboard restart
• Fix UTF-8 encoding when reading compose sequence files on Windows

New features

• Retroactive word case cycling: tap Shift at end of a word to cycle lowercase → Title Case → ALL CAPS → lowercase
• Auto-space after punctuation (. ! ? , ; : ): automatically inserts a space; suppressed in password/URL/email fields; toggleable in Settings › Behavior
• Case-insensitive suggestion lookup: typing a lowercase word now finds dictionary entries stored with a capital first letter (e.g. typing erde surfaces Erde and Erdbeere from a German dictionary)
• Sentence-start capitalization: suggestions are automatically capitalized after . , ! , ? , \n, or at the start of a text field; toggleable in Settings › Suggestions (on by default)
• Suggestion strip improvements: text auto-shrinks to fit on one line (no more wrapping for long words); horizontal padding between candidates for readability
• Deduplicated suggestions: suffix completions and distance matches are checked against already-shown candidates so the same word never appears twice in the strip
• Personal dictionary: opt-in feature (Settings › Suggestions) that learns words you type and surfaces them first in the strip; hold 600 ms on a personal suggestion to remove it; backspace after an autocomplete then space/punctuation commits and learns the original typed word instead of auto-completing again
• Personal dictionary import/export: export your learned words to a plain-text file and re-import them (merge or replace existing words) via Settings › Suggestions; uses the Storage Access Framework — no extra permissions required
• Typed word always top candidate: the word currently being typed is always promoted to the center slot (the space-bar autocomplete target); if no dictionary recognizes it, it is injected as the first candidate unless there is exactly one unambiguous completion

uk-layout-editor.vercel.app — a visual editor for creating and modifying Unexpected Keyboard layouts (source).
