From: https://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/2049 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another problem: If your dictionary have a word with capital letter, let's say "Hello", it won't add the lower case version to the dictionary when you enter it "hello" This is really irritating because if you're unlucky, like me, some of your most used words are only in the dictionary with capital letter, so you have to type them perfectrly, press the "up-arrow" and select the word. This is because it's not in the dictionary, even though I've typed it a thousand times.
NOTE: If you have the lower case version of the word in the dictonary, but not the upper-case, the capital one "Hello" is added to the dictionary when you type it. But not the other way around(!) One fix would be to just fix this, but i suppose that the dictionary should be case-agnostic. So when you want to enter a word with a capital letter, you have to explicitly tap the shift button. I would also propose that you can touch a word in the buffer area, and do an upstroke gesture to make the first letter in the word upper case. Example: you write "david" all in lower case, then instead of just tapping it, you press it and do an up-stroke, just like when changing keyboard. This would be intepreted as "I want the first letter capital" and the input would be "David" If you want to write a word with abnormal chasing, like "aBnOrMaL" you would have to use the "shift" button to specify the capital letters, but not when you just want the first letter capital, then you could use the up-stroke gesture. *Firstly this greatly reduces the entries in the dictionary, which again leads to better performance. *It removes duplicate words like "Hello" and "hello" in the buffer. *I believe it would add even more usability to FSO/openmoko's absolutly best application. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I just wanted to know how people think about this idea, would this better the usability? -- View this message in context: http://n2.nabble.com/-Illume-Raster-Keyboard--Propose-for-better-user-experience-tp2400347p2400347.html Sent from the Openmoko Devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
