Select non-conflicting key for speech recognition #65

Closed Netesten closed 8 years ago

Netesten commented 8 years ago

Annotate view. Just used and right arrow key to get to the segment I want to leave a Comment about. I start typing

  1. annoyingly punctuation is not allowed e.g. ' as in mother's
  2. suddenly I start getting loudly beeped at
  3. the microphone icon starts blinking
  4. my typed up text disappears ... Perplexing. I will try again.

Okay so this seems related to me choosing ` as a key to start voice recognition. I'm baffled because we seldom use this in English, we use ' instead. Well, it seems that you use this key!

So clearly we need to change this, hmm. We're a bit short of obvious function keys for this. We're using control, tab and cursors. We can't use shift because it's used for typing. Alt has issues for Macs.

Hmm, I wonder if we could maybe get rid of tab for switching tracks and perhaps have the annotation keys (cursor up and down) shift between tracks as well.

At this point I don't really understand how/if someone might use several tracks but golly it would be nice to use tab to activate speech recognition.

hm, I used ' not ` tho ...

Netesten commented 8 years ago

does the app on my pc think ' = ` ? I am using spacesaver keyboard and it's keys are reversed, like @ is "

Take 2: I was in the Home / Koejawels screen and clicked on the 'Annotate' . It goes into the Annotate screen. I click on the Annotate line, and it becomes live (with a cursor at start of line). I use < Ctrl> and right arrow to get to the second segment to make sure that's the one that needs the note. (does the green highlighting region thing) Yes, It is when I use the apostrophe ' (for mother's) that the sharp beep happens, microphone blinks and beeps again (two). Somehow my ' is triggering your ` ? When I click ' nothing happens onscreen. Tried to grab a screenshot here image

what about or or or or keys ? sounds kind of good? It's right next to the right-arrow ....

Lingomat commented 8 years ago

You know you can't type them right? :) The normal ' is usually down by the enter key.

Cool. You're typing the regular apostrophe here so I'm not sure how this is happening. I need to take a look at your computer and keyboard layout.

Netesten commented 8 years ago

hello Miaoli Mat xxx

Had another go

Yes, using ' next to the Enter key - picture further below:

Here's where I was: [image: Inline images 1]

Specifically, for purposes of tonight, typing the last line: [image: Inline images 2]

I'm happy to drop the use of tab for switching between annotations.
