Description

In #459 we're adding in a clipboard to the application and in #261 we're adding in a floating keyboard. Each of these adds another key to the UI, which would clutter it for people who don't want to use these keys. We should add settings to the Layout section of the app settings (see Figma) that allow the user to turn these options off.

The following i18n keys have been added to Scribe-i18n to provide the needed strings:

  "i18n.app.settings.keyboard.layout.clipboard_on_keyboard": "Clipboard key on keyboard",
  "i18n.app.settings.keyboard.layout.clipboard_on_keyboard_description": "Include a key to access the clipboard on the main keyboard.",
  "i18n.app.settings.keyboard.layout.floating_on_keyboard": "Floating key on keyboard",
  "i18n.app.settings.keyboard.layout.floating_on_keyboard_description": "Include a key to float the keyboard UI on the main keyboard."

As far as default values are concerned, we would have the clipboard on the keyboard by default and the floating key would be hidden by default.

Happy to support with this and review a PR once one is opened! 😊

Hey @andrewtavis

Since I've just wrapped up the floating keyboard implementation in #261, I'd love to take this one on as well! I'm already familiar with the floating and clipboard key logic, so it should be a quick follow-up.

Could you assign this issue to me? Thanks! 😊

Sure thing, @prince-0408! I'll check your PR for the floating keyboard now and hopefully we can bring that in. Then we can move on to here :)

Hey @prince-0408 👋 Given my comment in #621, feel free to send along two PRs for this :) For the first one we can make sure that the setting for the clipboard is on by default and also set up the setting itself, and then once #621 is in we can move on to the setting for the float key 😊
