 Same here, on Debian. Haven't tried the fuzz factor yet but we'll see.
 
 But something I've been meaning to look into for a while -- the font
 used for the letters on the keys and for the word suggestions above the
 keyboard is very very small. Is there an interface to set that somewhere
 or do I need to edit the theme file? It's a bigger font on SHR and FSO.

fonts should scale with the illume default profile - according to DPI. making
the fonts bigger will simply reduce the amount you can read. fonts on the
keyboard itself are not relevant as it fuzzy-matches anything nearby. the word
suggestions already have little enough space as-is... but you can play with a
custom scaling factor for e's ui - u'll need a restart for it to fully take
effect (restart of just e). but this will in general scale everything that is
scaleable. other than that the theme very much has a hand in setting the base
font sizes (relative to eachother) and the suggestions font size is the same
standard size used in all buttons/labels etc. etc.

Re: New Default Illume Keybd Layout

2009-01-17 Thread Petr Vanek

I was just wondering. If we can in the landscape mode, make use of the
extra space.
i.e.: take [1] and make it look more like [2]. I created [2] using
GIMP. But

if somehow we can do that resizing then that would speed up writing a
lot!

if you first xrandr rotate and the run keyboard for the first time
since boot then the keyboard will look as you wish. iirc raster said
there is a bug / or code needs to be added/ for correct screen width
recognition...

or as suggested  somewhere in the ml recently, change keyboard to 'none' and
change back to 'default' in illume config, after rotating screen - no 'first
time since boot' requirement.

New Default Illume Keybd Layout

2009-01-16 Thread c_c

Hi,
  Well, I rearranged the default illume keyboard to increase the letters (a
little) and optimise for right hand input.
http://n2.nabble.com/file/n2172078/Screenshot-1.png 

 Have posted the opkg at  http://www.opkg.org/package_101.html opkg.org .
 
 It's improved my typing speed sufficiently. Just thought I'll let people
know :-)
 BTW the image on the opkg.org page is not right. And I can't seem to change
it.
