Description How can I remove my account? 2020-01-13 09:31:31 UTC
Description:
Currently (build 4.2(29)) the behaviour of the on-screen keyboard and the sidebar is quite weird and hardly optimal.

When you open a text document and tap the blue round make-editable button, and then tap where you want to type in the document, the sidebar appears. OK, maybe there is some good reason for that, even if it makes the document itself much harder to read. 

But the on-screen keyboard does not appear. So you can't actually type. One way to get the on-screen keyboard to appear is to tap the horizontal scroll button on the toolbar. (Makes no sense, but oh well.)

But if you then tap the sidebar button on the toolbar to get rid of the sidebar that makes the document too small to comfortably edit, the on-screen keyboard disappears. Fun.

If you then tap on the other horizontal scroll button on the toolbar, the on-screen keyboard appears again. Now finally you are where you want to be.

In my opinion, the sidebar should appear only when specifically requested, or when invoking some functionality that uses the sidebar. And the on-screen keyboard definitely should appear when you tap into a plain text paragraph in a text document.
