I'd like to see iGigbook implementing a force virtual keyboard feature when a blue tooth foot pedal is connected. I own Forescore and it has that feature which is very handy. Also, while at, it would be great to be able to turn pages back.
Thanks

Re: Force Virtual Keyboard
The page turner devices that emulate a keyboard to me have this problem as a design flaw but the brilliance on the part of the makers of these devices is that they get the developers of apps to create a workaround for that design flaw. I think the makers of these devices should get together with Apple so that a global switch can be implemented to display the virtual keyboard at all times because when you have one of these devices connected, it affects all apps that need keyboard input. I don't view what Forscore does as a feature, it's more of a workaround for a bad design.

Re: Force Virtual Keyboard
The design flaw seems to be rather with the IOS itself: it disables the on screen keyboard when an external blue tooth keyboard(page tuner) is connected. Foresocre has a feature called force virtual keyboard, which, when turned on, will bring up the virtual keyboard. I hope that iGigbook will consider implementing the same feature in the next update.
