On sfos 3, using the new swipe to switch layout feature, I noticed that when the EN+ layout loads, there is a long lockup as the dictionary loads. At first I though the whole system had froze but it recovered. This happened everytime the layout was loaded.

is EN+ a custom keyboard?

EN is English layout. However, I tried to reproduce this but it doesn't happen to me. I've got also several layouts incl. Emoji activated.

EN+ probably is a custom layout ... tablet is flat atm so cant check where it is from

@pigg: check if standard english layout has the same issue

@Marti Masa K: that it's a layout for english input I could infer from the name, but the included layout is called "English", not EN+ (also notice the extra plus sign).

I can confirm this behaviour. If I use swipe to change layout to emojy and back to normal, then close the app and open it again I can't use keyboard anymore. It just doesn't open. I have to use Utilities to boot and make it work again. I use Xperia X.

@japsi: that's an unrelated issue. OP has an issue that the system is unresponsive, not that the keyboard is unusable. You should make a separate question about your issue. Just a note about that though. I can't reproduce it using notes app and emoji keyboard from openrepos. Xperia X with Sailfish 3.

EN+ comes from dolphin keyboard. Removing it 'fixes' the problem, but maybe there are other options to speed up loading time?
