On the Asus Flip it is the same. It would be very nice to be able to resize the on screen keyboard to the user's own preference. Maybe even in a floating window.

Unfortunately I can't take a screenshot of the keyboard while in tablet mode. This is a screenshot with the accessibility feature turned on for the on screen keyboard in settings on a chromebook. It is much smaller than the tablet mode keyboard.

Noticed a flaw in this as well > the keyboard hides the shelf. You have to close the keyboard first (click on keyboard icon) in order to access the shelf. The shelf is not set to autohide. See screenshot.

Acer Chromebook R11.

This makes tablet mode quite frustrating to use.

We are looking into ways to resolve this.

Thanks, glad to see that it's being looked into. Another step towards improving tablet mode for convertible ChromeOS devices.

(Bulk Edit) Adding the new conops Chrome OS hotlist to all open issues with the "#CBC-RS/TC-watchlist" tag, our former tracking tag.

Is this still a problem if we have the floating keyboard?

The floating keyboard should help here, as long as user's selection to use it is sticky. It really begs the question though of whether we just have a single keyboard with size & placement options.

I have no idea if it would be possible, and it would probably be a lot of work, and maybe I should create a separate feature request, but I'm just going to throw my idea out there:

It would be really awesome if I could use any old Android keyboard as my input method. The advantage to this approach would be that I instantly get all or many of the awesome features that exist in the Android ecosystem. The downside is the probably huge complexity involved in shuttling keyboard activity between the Android environment and the host ChromeOS environment.
