Change "customMagicAction" icon using SVG file

[Francis365]

Hi,

I'm integrating Fleksy SDK for Android. I want to replace the icon for the action button (left hand side of spacebar) with a logo in SVG format. Is this possible, or are there better ways to handle this

Hi @Francis365 ,
Right now, the action button (left hand side of the spacebar) we are able to show up text. Internally, how we handle this, is by creating our own font which contains icons so it's faster to load and show the icons. An option would be to create your own font too.

The classes that handle these things are: magicButtonIcon: Icon and customMagicAction: MagicAction?, which gives you the option to add your own custom action.

Let me know if this works for you.

Thanks @xevifar for confirming, I've created a font that has the icon. I couldn't find where to add this font. "magicButtonIcon" Icon uses the default Font from Fleksy. How do I add my font.

Hi @Francis365 ,
We currently do not support custom font for your custom action, we have added this task to add it to our current sprint. We will support custom fonts for custom actions in two weeks.
Meanwhile, you might get the "flicon.tff" and add your own icon elements into this font. Then, it should work automatically.

Thanks, that would be helpful, looking forward to the custom font.
For flicon.tff, I couldn't find how to achieve this from the docs, can you guide me on how to set it up.

Amazing @Francis365 !
Yes, we are adding the feature for customising the font from the customAction for making it easy for you.

Alright, thanks

@Francis365 we have already released the version that enables you the customisation of the icon by adding your own font. Here all the information about it: https://docs.fleksy.com/sdk-android/api-reference-android/keyboardconfiguration/#typingconfiguration

This is included from the version 4.3.4 Android KeyboardSDK.

Have a good day!

Thanks @xevifar for following up, I just tested the update. It worked as discussed with custom font for custom action.
