Transparent Keyboard? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey All, I would LOVE to get a Swype Keyboard that was transparent. Been a Swype'r for years.
I got the idea while testing out the floating keyboard...would be incredibly useful if the floating keyboard could go partially transparent. for instance, go to the floating keyboard and then press the drag point...the keyboard goes half transparent while you move it around.
anyone know whether you can accomplish this on Swype or Swiftkey?

Gingerbread keyboard suggestions?

Does anybody know how to change the color of the suggestion bar text on the gingerbread keyboard, I've almost got it to look exactly like the minimal matte keyboard but the orange suggestions don't match. Here's a screenshot of what I mean:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Im not sure if this will suit you, but try "Multiling Keyboard" from market. It's free, functions almost (99%) the same as GB keyboard (and even better), has the option to set themes and has the option to set colours and best of all, it's free .

Soft buttons for s-pen

Yes, we have the gestures,
but wouldn't it be nice if the soft-buttons for menu/home/back automatically appeared when the s-pen is in use?
I wonder how much that would break things.

Great idea, I would like this aswell, even better if the buttons would be semi transparent! No idea is it possible, but one can always hope

You can easily add the buttons by adding a line in your build.prop.
See my topic were i try to theme this navigation bar

[Q] Landscape orientation -- Possible to shrink text input box?

I'm just wondering if it's possible to see my IMs while in landscape?
This seems like super inefficient use of space and makes it a hassle to chat and type!

This does not happen to me on stock 4.2.2 and keyboard. Does the same thing happen with the stock keyboard or just Swiftkey?

Has anyone found a way to auto hide the navigation keys to come up when you swipe up from the bottom of the screen?
