Waiting time for repeating keys via the Shield should be reset #146

Closed ijdoc closed 11 years ago

ijdoc commented 11 years ago

Carolyn reported she can only type a character 3 times before the waiting time for repeating keys expires.

I am able to locate the code lines where the issue may reside. But I am confused what is it meant by 'Repeating Keys'? 1) Does it mean that the Self-Scanning (Highlighting) of keys is not delayed when a key is pressed, scanning goes on and on, leaving no extra time for pressing the same key again and again. or 2) 'Repeating key press' for the characters is also allowed but not working properly. (But in ca.idi.tekla.ime.TeclaIME.selectHighlighted(Boolean repeat) , it says 'Repeat is only implemented for Navigation Keys')

Please guide me.

It is more as in your second interpretation. The delay existed but was not reset after a key selection, so users could not select the same key more than a handful of times before the highlight reset.

This issue has been resolved in the last build though (inside the tags folder on jorgesilva's fork). We are just waiting for user feedback to confirm the solution. On 19 Feb 2013 09:29, "sagarchandarana123" notifications@github.com wrote:

Ohk.. At this point I've almost gone through the whole code. Could you please direct me to an issue or an enhancement on which I can work on?

Fixed on develop branch already
