To restore the full on-screen keyboard, simply touch-and-hold the keyboard-key at bottom-right of the keyboard; without lifting your finger from the screen, slide your finger to Dock & Merge - then lift your finger from the screen.
You will now have the full on-screen keyboard visible on the screen - and this will be anchored to the bottom of the screen. From here, should choose to do so, you can again split the keyboard… again by using the keyboard-key
Alternatively, the keyboard can be spit using a keyboard-gesture; simultaneously place two fingers on the keyboard (keys “f” and “j” are ideal) - and pause - before moving your fingers outwards towards the left and right sides of the screen. Your on-screen keyboard should split - and remain docked to the bottom of the screen.
From split-keyboard, you can also return to a full keyboard by using two fingers; place one finger on each keyboard segment, then slide your fingers together.
