Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Not relayted to the problem or bug.

Describe the solution you'd like

I'd like to request some features

  1. A possibility to disable or hide upper panel (orange color on my screen shot).
    It will help to save some place on the screen. And increase observability of the rest part of the screen.
  2. Long swipe trough middle row (red arrow on my screenahot) to delete last typed word. Would be nice to have also.
    It will increase speed of typing (errors correction speed)
  3. A possibility to hide 2 buttons with . and , symbols (blue marks)
    It will free up some space to make "space" button bigger. This will make language switching much faster and easier.
  4. An option to make the "space" button higher and wider. (Green mark)
    As I told earlier, this will make language switching much faster and easier. Especially for people who have problems with their eyes. From my perspective Space button is too small for now.
  5. An ability to use shift button as a capslock. For now shift button short press - we will get only one capital letter. I'd like to be able to make a long press at this button and it would act like pressed capslock. And all letters will be typed as capital.
    That option is also useful when you have to type various abbreviations often. It easier to type various abbreviations and such an option will increase a speed of typing and your productivity.
  6. An option to make all the symbols constantly capital on a keyboard. They should look as a capital on a keyboard, but during a typing it will depend from Shift/Caps-lock button.
    This option is helpful mostly for an old people to find needed symbol quicker and type faster.
  7. An ability to download dictionary by a button press.
    From my perspective there should be 2 options. One is a manual download, like we have for now. And direct download by pressing one button.
    It will make keyboard more user friendlier.

5 is already present and 7 won't happen because it requires internet permission 3 is possible I think by editing the layout, see https://github.com/Helium314/HeliBoard/blob/main/layouts.md

Can't figure out how to format layout to remove comma ( , ) and period (. ) were you able to remove it ? If yes , could you provide steps it will be appreciated

Hiding the toolbar has already been reported.

Looks like I was unable to find that topic. Anyway, people are asking about such possibility and I also need it.

6. An option to make all the symbols constantly capital on a keyboard. They should look as a capital on a keyboard, but during a typing it will depend from Shift/Caps-lock button.
This option is helpful mostly for an old people to find needed symbol quicker and type faster.

I tried to add layout like
A
B
....
but during typing I'm getting only capital letters. As I was telling earlier, I need small/capital letters during typing depending of Shift/Caps-lock button status.
One more time. All letters should LOOK as capital on keyboard all the time, but during typing small/capital should depend from Shift/Caps-lock button pressing. Is it possible?
