Can’t reproduce any overlap, but instead I have some extra gap between the terminal content and the keyboard. It seems to be the extra bottom margin we reserve because of the heavily rounded corners, but the terminal side should have that only when the keyboard is inactive.

No wait, I can reproduce the problem with the moving keyboard mode. Above was with fixed keyboard.

thanks for providing a fix for that, I have not realised its cause is the rounded corners and the notch(?). I cannot understand h/w decisions for such designs, they seem to cause more issues that they resolve…

Yea, there are pros and cons involved with those. The bug here doesn’t apply to other devices we have since there are no notches and the rounding are quite much smaller. On C2 we add some extra paddings on different places to avoid content over these.

The notch on the C2 screen is quite prominent, same for the rounded corners, stupid h/w feature, but that’s my personal view.
