Description

This issue is for the implementation of long press functionality for keyboard space bars. The space bar of system keyboards can be held to trigger more accurate cursor movement and text selection, which is a very useful feature that Scribe keyboards should include. This issue is as of now not a priority, but could be later as this is expected functionality.
