some keys on extended keyboards not working ...

ssgam

hi all,

I'm running pythonista v2.0 (200003), on iOS 9.3.1 iPad mini.
the extended keys for >, : and ' is not working.

eg: when I tap and hold the > key, it does not show the
<=, => and < signs like it used to.

holding the ' does not show the " choice,
holding the : key does not show the ; choice.

are there some settings that need be done,
with different versions of the sw and os ?

thanks much in a advance,
sam

Same here. Just joined to see if I was the only one. Swiping up on the key gives the alternate, but I cannot get a preview to show.

I have the same problem on iPad Air 2, iOS 9.3.2, Pythonista v2.0 (200003).

If I hold down a finger on the keys on the extended keyboard that represent multiple keys, the alternatives do not appear.

It works fine on my iPhone 5 running the same version of iOS and Pythonista.

I just discovered that the alternative keys are actually there when holding down the main key, just not visible on the screen. If you move to where the keys are normally displayed, you can select them.

Yes, this is a known issue on iOS 9.3 and later. Sorry about that, a fix is coming soon.
