Preset themes

@adarsh1001 I've already made the changes locally to add the dynamic colours but before publishing the PR I'm waiting to see if #269 will be validated.
Indeed, the gesture input colour is used in some cases for dynamic colours and doesn't follow accent color. If not, I still have an alternative.

In any case, you can be sure that we'll have this feature very soon. 😉

@adarsh1001 Thank you for thanking us. 😉
And of course thank you to the others for doing so on other posts.

It was a real pleasure to work on this feature, because Openboard has become a very modern keyboard. And I suppose there's plenty more to come. Can't wait to find out all about it!

In any case, I was really looking forward to hearing your opinion on the dynamic colours, to see if you like them. And that seems to be the case, so I'm happy. 😁

It's being improved and you can follow our progress here.
A new open PR will soon be created, taking into account the latest Helium314 updates.

Until then, you can download a beta version in my fork here.

You can define you own theme colors too, it's really not that hard

I loved the themes, but one problem is that all of them are light mode w/ colour themes, adding dark/amoled w/ colour themes will be nice.

I tried one but some problems are there like, when long press the comma the icons are grayed out can't see what selected and in period too. Adding material you themes be good.

Will the themes get material you (M3) design?
Also the app too?

If someone decides to implement it and do a PR.
It's not part of my plan.

@BlackyHawky Since you worked on material theming, wanted to ask if for Android 12+, can you switch to Material You colors for the keyboard? This would make it same as what GBoard does and since a lot of apps support Material You on Android 12+, the keyboard theme looks quite beautiful and consistent. I currently set material you colors manually whenever I change my wallpaper 😄

Amazing work @BlackyHawky @Helium314, the keyboard looks absolutely stunning with dynamic colors, on par with GBoard. Other open source ones look quite dated in comparison 😅 Hope we reach F-Droid soon, I'm sure the community at large that don't know about this fork yet will really appreciate a modern-looking feature-rich keyboard.
