Option to customize the number of word suggestions in the prediction bar #471

Description

@julesg123

Context & Background
I have been using LeanType and absolutely love the offline version to run it locally with my own AI model, as I am very interested in AI and highly value the ability to process everything locally.

The Problem
I currently have text suggestions enabled while typing, but the app defaults to showing five different word suggestions in the top bar. This creates a few usability issues:

  • The text size becomes very small to fit all five words on the screen.
  • Long words frequently get truncated or cut in half, making it impossible to read the full suggestion.
  • The overall prediction bar looks cramped and cluttered.

Proposed Solution
It would be incredibly useful to add an option that allows users to choose exactly how many word suggestions appear in the keyboard's prediction bar.

  • Users who like the current layout could leave it at the default of 5 words.
  • Users with smaller screens or who prefer larger text could lower the count.
  • In my case, I would love to set it to 3 words. This would provide enough space for the words to be displayed fully without getting cut off or looking squished together.
  • Implementing this flexibility would bring LeanType's suggestion bar more in line with the behavior of other well-known keyboards like Gboard or Futo Keyboard, which typically manage screen real estate better by showing around 3 suggestions to optimize readability.

Thank you for considering this enhancement and for your great work on the app!
