  1. Well it was with 'thinned' colour as unimportant, in this
  2. As I wrote earlier, adhesive remains from a (failed) experiment I did. It is pure Android. Just the soft-key, so if the app used are not in full screen mode, you got one (or more) softkeys in the bar
  3. Sorry guys, I'm away for a few days, and asked the staff to handle stuff
  4. I forgot to post an image of the elastic one mounted, but can be found in this thread (not on final unit though)
  5. Yes, And could have been better if I had applied with more care, as you can see with the speaker and camera holes. For other readers: Some cheap elastic ones from aliexpress discussed over here,
  6. I think it can be achieved as already described by others, but I'm pretty sure this is a render though, as I (with this angle) would have expected slight distortions at the curved top edge. And I do not think you can make the splitter bar that thin either. Here is an example (outside, a nice sunny day today), this is a preproduction unit, but doubt that it matters in this context. Here with the Android font size set to "Large" and "Small" (Both with "Display size" set to "Small") - browsers at default. And yes you guessed who that bald guy disturbing the image is...

  7. I certainly agree that the moderation issues are far worse than the design issues.
  8. I could be related to the moderation that they are 'locked', but not sure. Before that I believe people were allowed to edit for a limited period. [Rant] And I certainly agree that the fonts are not at all important in this forum, from my perspective it was a more general rant as these crazy designs appear all over the net. I think it is related to the plaque of "material design", that would have made sense on 16 colour CGA displays decades back, but are just outright stupid today, I simply can not find a single benefit. Well except that the informationless displays might allow screenshots
  9. Could be worth a try, but seems rather silly to have to tweak the client side for readability IHMO
  10. Actually you DO have it, look e.g on that last “aeiovgx” in your image, and how the top of the v and the x is below the g (as is the i less the dot)
  11. You can not even imagine how tired I am of this moderation mess!!! Have suggested several things, and if nothing happens very very soon I'll simply give up approving, and let the staff do it. I'm so tired of wasting my time doing none-constructive work here... It was supossed to be temporary until they found a solution, and have lasted 1½ month now!!! To approve posts in a thread I need to click approve, wait, repeat for all pending in same thread, make a dummy-comment, wait, bin the dummy, wait, delete the dummy, wait, and go on to the next thread.... I can not even at a central place see wh
  12. Yeah, as abielins pointed out (you were both was waiting for moderation, sorry) it is on low DPI only, so on mobiles (that generally got higher dpi) it looks ok.
  13. So are you saying that I should upgrade my 43" 4K display to one that is at the least 8K to use this forum? Sounds like a really well chosen font then... *LOL* But on a more serious note you sure got a point! If I ask FireFox to scale to 150%, the font looks decent. Though of course absurdly huge. (An of course this does not work as a workaround for the other design issues)
  14. These 'fancy' fonts are not my cup of tea either. Sure they can be used for local effects like in a birthday invite, but for general texts.... YIKES! But I'm old, and to me Function is key....
  15. Yeah, but it does not say that we can make new pre-orders. It only talks about "existing pre-orders" and "new orders". But confusingly clicking Buy, they still call it "pre-orders", but as you only seem to be allowed to complete those with a pay (thus making it an order). I suspect it is simply a textual slip. (I have already pointed out this to the staff, and I hope they will either allow for new pre-orders or change the texts)
  16. I wonder if they actually told us this: or it is just our own assumptions/deductions/hopes? I have tried to browse ttrough the comments and haven't found this. What they HAVE told us is that we can hold already existing pre-order open, at the pre-order price, without placing a full order. But if we can not make new pre-orders it means that those already paid can not go back and wait for a possible Scandinavian layout if they would like to, but would have to just cancel and buy for the new price IF a Scandinavian layout will become available. I hope we can have an official comment on
  17. It seems those making the forum have forgotten that the slogan is "Function is key", and NOT "Design is key"... I'm so sick and tired by this pest all over the computer world (not just here), that things has to be over-designed and under-productive. It is all over, from colours hard to separate, lacking borders/separation, to over simplified icons completely loosing their original relation to the physical object they are supposed to represent... The rubber stamp top right is a typical example, though it is slightly better than the sad Cyclop smliey used by MS....
  18. Please try again. I just did, as described above - but could be my privileges that (by a bug) allows me to do so.
  19. That is how I read it too. Though IF the amount of interested is very low, they just MIGHT need to place a surcharge - that is just my guessing - but you would still be able to get the US or German at the pre-order price, that seems pretty clear.
  20. Hmm, I just did a new pre-order. And it worked fine here, I just did not fill in the credit card info at the bottom. Here https://www.fxtec.com/product/fxtec-pro1-pre-order/ I just clicked QWERTZ and "PreOrder Now", Then "Proceed to checkout" (Suggested address was OK). And after ticking "I have read and agree to ..." I just clicked "Place Pre-Order Now".
  21. I got a reply, but it explicitly request not to be published (apart from the same bottom disclaimer as the above) So as no clear answer is public, my advise for those wanting a Scandinavian keyboard badly would be to cancel their order, make a new pre-order and wait.
  22. A few question arises from their mails: 1) How do F(x)Tec plan to "...monitor demand for..." ? 2) Will it be possible to send a US or German Pro1 and have it 'upgraded' to Scandinavian, and at approximately what cost? (With or without the existing keyboard returned as a spare) 3) Will it be possible to put an already paid order back to a pre-order state, keeping the indiegogo coupon value? I mean if a swap is not possible, or F(x)Tec will charge say €200 for a swap then people that want the Scandinavian layout badly better cancel their paid orders, make new pre-orders quickly at the same
  23. Oh not remove it, but use the practical strike through, like this example: Here I wrote something wrong ADD: This is incorrect, please see... and a link This way a future ready do not need to get worried, (Edited my own above this way)
