Hi all, When using a non included virtual keyboard layout the word prediction does not show anything. Is there any way to add an own database for a specific locale? I have no idea where should I look for it's database.
Thanks in advance!

Xt9 prediction databases are Nuance property, they are proprietary and costs money. You can only try to use empty database and teach it with new words somehow.
Thanks man!
I could not imaged that an OS marketed as free and opensource has a simple component like word prediction which is properitary and cannot be fed with a simple word list...
It is a shame...
martonmiklos ( 2016-12-21 11:10:07 +0200 )editWell this pissed me up pretty much, so I will take a look after it. I do not say that it will happen soon, but added to the TODO list.
martonmiklos ( 2016-12-21 11:47:18 +0200 )editThat would be great if you would look into it. Its a major issue and should be fixed. In addition to non-supported languages it seems to me that starting from 2.0.5.x release, ported devices are also cuf off from xt9 (which is fair enough). I looked briefly into it, but didn't have time yet to start doing something about predictors and keyboard. As far as I have seen, Ubuntu touch uses similar/same architecture as SFOS and has open-source solution for word predictions. So, I hope its possible to join them and port their solution over to Sailfish and this is not any major work. Just open a new thread in TMO when you start looking into it and maybe together with other users it would be faster to make it.
rinigus ( 2016-12-21 14:59:40 +0200 )editWell I have found the Presage: http://presage.sourceforge.net/
It should not be critically hard to create a QML inputhandler to the front of it. The input handler qml file seems to be selectable at the keyboard definition.
I will see with what can I came up at the evening.

Any hints on this one?
According to this threads https://together.jolla.com/question/327/where-are-the-dictionaries-of-the-vkb-stored/https://together.jolla.com/question/6951/allow-adding-additional-languages-to-xt9/ You should ask someone from Jolla if something changed in this case.
