Gboard shortcuts don't work - Xiaomi Mi 6 Questions & Answers

One function I use a lot is the keyboard shortcuts.
However, the shortcuts created on the Gboard do not work.
For example, create a shortcut by typing "gm" to appear in the top bar the phrase "good morning".

keyboard shortcut for context menu

My Universal had a keyboard shortcut (fn+space) for the windows context menu (the equivalent of clicking on something and holding). Is there a way to get the context menu via the shortcut on TP2? I used to use it particularly for inserting the date while writing a note.
so have you found how to make this work? I'm looking for it too.

assign soft key action...

ok, i'm not getting a response in q&a, so, sorry if this is in the wrong section...
anyone know if it's possible to assign a shortcut to the softkey action
(ie. the softkeys are different in word to those on the today screen, can i assign a shortcut to that action)
i use a bluetooth keyboard which can be configured to any shortcut. it would be real handy to be able to just hit a couple of keys rather than reach for the devices tiny screen everytime i want to activate the menu.
cheers
or even just to have the pop up menu in word would be real handy
cheers
anyone!???

How to invoke the search key shortcut?

Hello Everybody
I use Voice Speed Dial up extensively.
I find it very convenient to invoke the application in Google Nexus S using search key.
How to do the same in newer generation mobile phone which has just 3 keys?
Kinda' obnoxious that they removed search, in my opinion.
Most (all?) of the custom roms allow you to add new things to the nav bar.
But if you're on JellyBean...just swiping up from the nav bar opens GNow. Search bar included.

[Q] PC layout Keyboard suggestion

I have a problem finding a perfect (for me) keyboard.
I want a PC layout and shortcuts and permanent suggestions.
Google Keyboard is great, it has a PC layout and I can create shortcuts BUT suggestions (and hence shortcuts) aren't always available in every app, for instance logging in on a web site I have to type my e-mail address even though I have a shortcut for that.
Hacker's Keyboard is tremendous and I love it but doesn't appear to have shortcuts.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

[Q] switching between keyboards while texting

I have swiftkey installed and I just got this fun keyboard called Gif Gif Gif that lets you send gifs in text messages. The gif keyboard sucks as a regular keyboard so I want to be able to switch between SwiftKey and Gif Gif Gif but it doesn't allow me to switch in the texting app ( I use Textra). I felt like in the past you were allowed to change the input by holding down on the space in the text input but I now find that it doesn't work anymore.
Any solutions or knowledge of this?
While you're using swiftkey (or any other keyboard) look in the notification bar. There should be a keyboard icon there. Drag the notification bar down and press on the keyboard entry in the list. In the list that pops up, press on the keyboard you want to use.
