Hi, Direct touch typing works like this. And it took me a while (and someone else's explanation) to fully understand it.
If you've got a *really* good grasp on the keyboard, or have some usable vision, it might be great. Essentially, when you tap a key, the key types. And by 'tap", I mean a real tap, with absolutely *no* extra time from when your finger makes contact to when you let go. This means that the keyboard acts exactly like it does for sighted folks when VO is off. However, if you hold your finger on a key, it will speak, just as though you had traditional or touch typing enabled instead. That way, you could use split tap if you really wanted. For my part, touch typing still works great. Now...if I could just figure out how to run Fleksy. -- Buddy Brannan, KB5ELV - Erie, PA Phone: 814-860-3194 Mobile: 814-431-0962 Email: bu...@brannan.name > On Sep 17, 2014, at 6:08 PM, Eugenia Firth <gigifi...@me.com> wrote: > > Hi those that know > What is direct touch typing in IOS 8?
