App extension keyboard key being cut off on press

Question

I have a keyboard that works fine except that the magnified view of the key (for keys on the top row) is cut off. It's basically a similar effect to the regular ios keyboard:

I'm looking to achieve something like that in the picture. How can I prevent my views from being limited to the keyboard container? The key is a button which has it's image changed upon press down.

Thank you!

Answer 1

This is not possible in iOS 8.

The Custom Keyboard Extension docs state:

Finally, it is not possible to display key artwork above the top edge of a custom keyboard’s primary view, as the system keyboard does on iPhone when you tap and hold a key in the top row.
