I fond that the cursor keys don't work if you don't have somewhere to go. So, for example, I can't use the right arrow to go further to the right than where I've already typed. And, the down arrow won't go down from this sentence as I type it - though the up arrow will go up.

Hope that makes sense - and helps. :)

EDIT: Huh. It appears that the arrow keys DON'T work with this forum (on the Tapatalk app, anyway). Odd. Maybe because it's a "live" feed? Cause it works in the Notes app...

hi Marilyn, thanks for a quick reply, I've tried loads of apps now including notes and the cursor keys don't work with any of them, I'll check my settings and see if I've clicked something off.

EDIT: just been into the ikeywi settings and done a respring, now working on everything ha ha

Nice... As soon as QWERTZ / German keyboard is supported, I'll chip in...

Thanks for the tip, was having the same problem. For those that are also having the problem, open settings and sroll down the left hand side and look for the ikeywi HD icon (it's not on the general-keyboards section) and just hit the 'save and respring' button and you should be good to go. I so missed the 5 row keyboard!

Anyone having a problem with ikey capitalizing the first word of a sentence? It doesn't do it automatically and I have to manually do it twice to get it to work. Any suggestions

Get the same problem with QuickOffice, which is a big problem as I can't do without this app. Have contacted the dev so will see what comes back.

exactly the same here. As a matter of fact, just look at my first sentence's beginning...

It's a known bug folks. Best thing we can all do is contact the developer via info in Cydia and request a fix.

Apologies to any of the posters above who are confused. I have split out the conversation regarding iKeywi HD for iPad from the "5-Row Keybaord for iPad" thread as it was getting a little confusing since they are separate tweaks! Hope you don't mind :)

another tweak

Another tweak has shown up on Cydia, called "5 Row Customizable Keyboard for iPad"; author is a certain "Ganbold". Anybody having a thought on which tweak is better so far?

I've tried both. I couldn't get iKeywi to not crash Quickoffice. 5 Row Customizable Keyboard for iPad works fine. It was a little strange getting it set up, but i finally have it like I want. So far I'm liking it.
