Suggest Extended Keyboard default to hidden when hardware keyboard is attached. about ivim HOT 6 CLOSED

Thanks for the link, @mtwebb

However, the solution discussed in that thread seems not so reliable or stable. So I think I will still go the toggle option way.

Added in version 1.38 (:h ios-settings)

Actually, I thought about this function when I was implementing the external keyboard part. But I haven't been able to figure out how to detect the events when a hardware keyboard is connected to the device. (Anyone who has the solution please be generous to share?)

As an alternative, I will add a settings option to iVim that will hide the extended keyboard by default.

This thread discusses some options: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31991873/how-to-reliably-detect-if-an-external-keyboard-is-connected-on-ios-9
It’s iOS 9, but comments have some updates for iOS 11.

That said, a toggle in the settings app sounds good too.

Cheers Terry. Works like a charm.
