Multi key selection issues

多键选择的问题

Bad or failed multikey selection matches

多键选择匹配错误或失败

If you are finding that multi-key selections are producing bad or unexpected results then it may be that OptiKey is being too sensitive or not sensitive enough when registering your interest in the letters which make up your intended word. In other words OptiKey may be including letters you did not mean to glance at, or missing letters you intentionally glance at.

如果你发现多键选择输出错误或者不是你想要的结果,这可能是因为在输入你期望单词的过程中看向字母时, OptiKey 过于灵敏或者不够灵敏。换句话说,OptiKey 可能会包含你并不真正想要扫过的字母,也可能错过了你确实想要扫过的字母。

First decide which you think is most likely; if you are given matches which include letters that you only glanced at accidentally then OptiKey is probably being too sensitive. If, however, it is missing letters that you looked at intentionally then it is probably not being sensitive enough.

首先要判断下哪种原因的可能性更高:如果你发现匹配中包含了你只是偶然瞥了一眼的字母,这可能是因为 OptiKey 太过灵敏了;然而如果丢失了一些你确实扫过的字母,这可能是因为它还不够灵敏。

To decrease OptiKey’s sensitivity:

降低 OptiKey 的灵敏度

  1. With OptiKey focussed press ALT + M to open the Management Console.

  2. 激活 OptiKey 按下 ALT + M 打开管理控制台。

  3. Select the ‘Pointing & Selecting’ tab and scroll down to the “Multi-Key Selection” section.

  4. 选择 “指向和选择(Pointing & Selecting)” 标签页,向下滚动到 “多键选择(Multi-Key Selection)” 区域。

  5. Change the setting ‘Minimum dwell time on a key to include in capture (ms)’ to a larger value. If the current value is 50ms, for example, then try 100ms (a 10th of a second), or even larger. This setting controls how long you need to direct your attention to each key (letter) in a multi-key selection before OptiKey registers your interest in that letter. If you set the value to 500(ms) then you would need to hold your attention on each key (letter) in the multi-key selection for half a second before OptiKey would consider you “interested” in that letter.

  6. 将设置 “包含按键的最小停留时间(ms)(Minimum dwell time on a key to include in capture (ms))” 修改为更大的值。比如当前的值是 50 毫秒,那么尝试一下 100 毫秒(十分之一秒)甚至更大的值。这个设置控制了在多键选择输入的时候,OptiKey 在确认你所选的字母时,你需要注视一个按键(字母)多长时间。如果你把这个值设置为 500(毫秒),那么在多键输入时,你需要注视每个按键(字母)半秒钟,OptiKey 才会认为你在“输入”这个字母。

To increase OptiKey’s sensitivity:

提高 OptiKey 的灵敏度

  1. With OptiKey focussed press ALT + M to open the Management Console.

  2. 激活 OptiKey 按下 ALT + M 打开管理控制台。

  3. Select the ‘Pointing & Selecting’ tab and scroll down to the “Multi-Key Selection” section.

  4. 选择 “指向和选择(Pointing & Selecting)” 标签页,向下滚动到 “多键选择(Multi-Key Selection)” 区域。

  5. Change the setting ‘Minimum dwell time on a key to include in capture (ms)’ to a smaller value. If the current value is 250ms, for example, then try 100ms (a 10th of a second), or even smaller. This setting controls how long you need to direct your attention to each key (letter) in a multi-key selection before OptiKey registers your interest in that letter. If you set the value to 100(ms) then you would need to hold your attention on each key (letter) in the multi-key selection for a tenth of a second before OptiKey would consider you “interested” in that letter.

  6. 将设置 “包含按键的最小停留时间(ms)(Minimum dwell time on a key to include in capture (ms))” 修改为更小的值。比如当前的值是 250 毫秒,那么尝试一下 100 毫秒(十分之一秒)甚至更小的值。这个设置控制了在多键选择输入的时候,OptiKey 在确认你所选的字母时,你需要注视一个按键(字母)多长时间。如果你把这个值设置为 100(毫秒),那么在多键输入时,你需要注视每个按键(字母)十分之一秒,OptiKey 就会认为你在“输入”这个字母。

Not sure whether the sensitivity should be decreased or increased? Send me an email at optikeyfeedback@gmail.com with as much detail as possible about what you attempted to capture and what OptiKey suggested. I’ll work with you to figure out the problem and suggest how to tweak your settings to improve your experience.
