00.00 | Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Configuring Setting in KTouch. |
00.04 | In this tutorial, you will learn how to: |
00.08 | Change the level of training
Adjust the speed of typing. |
00.13 | Configure short cut keys.
Configure the toolbars. View typing metrics. |
00.20 | Here, we are using KTouch 1.7.1 on Ubuntu Linux 11.10. |
00.27 | Let’s open KTouch. |
00.33 | We are at Level 1.Let us move on to the second level that is 2. |
00.40 | To increase the level of the training to 2, click on the top triangle symbol, next to the Level field. |
00.48 | Notice what happens when we change the level to 2? |
00.52 | The characters in the Teacher’s Line change! |
00.56 | Look at the characters displayed under the New Characters in this Level field.They’ve changed too! |
01.02 | These are the characters that are to be practised for the selected level. |
01.07 | Now, let’s start typing. |
01.09 | Now let us type a character that is not displayed in the Teacher’s Line. |
01.14 | The Student Line changes to red. |
01.17 | What else do you see? |
01.19 | The percentage displayed in the Correctness field decreases. |
01.23 | Let’s press backspace and delete the mistake. |
01.27 | Let us learn to set Training options. |
01.31 | What are Training Options? |
01.33 | We use Training options to change the parameters for typing speed and correctness (percentage of typing accuracy). |
01.41 | We can also customize the number of lines that can be typed in a particular level. |
01.47 | From the Main menu, select Settings, and click Configure KTouch. |
01.52 | The Configure – KTouch dialog box appears. |
01.56 | From the Left Panel of the Configure – KTouch dialog box, click Training Options. |
02.02 | The right panel now displays the various Training Options. |
02.06 | Let’s set the upper limit for the Typing speed, Correctness, and Workload. |
02.13 | Under Limits to increase a level, let us: |
02.15 | Set the Typing Speed to 120 characters per minute,Correctness to 85%. |
02.24 | Finally let’s set Workload to 1. |
02.27 | This means that we need to complete only one line in each level. |
02.31 | We then will automatically move to the next level. |
02.36 | If you want to complete the training for a level before you proceed to the next level,check the "Complete whole training level before proceeding box". |
02.46 | Let’s set the lower limit for the Typing speed and Correctness. |
02.50 | Under Limits to decrease a level, let us: |
02.53 | Set the Typing Speed to 60 characters per minute and Correctness to 60. |
03.00 | Let’s check the box Remember level for next program. |
03.06 | Click Apply.Click OK. |
03.09 | Changes we made are applied only when we start a new session again. |
03.14 | Click Start New Session and select Keep Current Level. |
03.20 | Let’s start typing again. |
03.23 | Notice that initially the speed is 0. It increases or decreases as we type. |
03.30 | Click Pause Session.When we pause the typing speed remains at the same count. |
03.38 | Let us resume typing. |
03.40 | As the speed drops below 60, notice that, the red circle, next to Speed, is glowing. |
03.47 | This indicates that speed has fallen below the lower limit, that is 60 set for the speed. |
03.54 | Now, type the number 4 that is not displayed in the Teacher’s Line. |
03.59 | The Student’s Line turns red. |
04.02 | The Percentage of the Correctness drops too. |
04.05 | Can you see the spaces between set of characters or character given in the Teacher’s Line? |
04.11 | Now, I shall not press the Space bar after this word. |
04.15 | The Student’s Line has turned red again! |
04.18 | This means the spaces too must be typed in correctly. |
04.22 | Let us complete typing an entire line in the student’s line and then press Enter. |
04.31 | The Level has changed to 3! |
04.33 | Why does the level change to 3?This is because we have set the Workload to 1. |
04.39 | Therefore, when we complete one line for Level 2 and press Enter, we move to the next level. |
04.47 | Notice that new characters are displayed in the Teacher’s Line. |
04.52 | Do you want to know the scores of our typing session? |
04.55 | Click Lecture Statistics.The Training statistics "dialogue box" appears. |
05.02 | Let’s click on the "tabs" and see what each of them indicate. |
05.07 | Click on Current Training Session. |
05.12 | This displays the general statistics details, rate of typing, accuracy of typing, and details of the characters that you need to concentrate on. |
05.22 | The Current Level Statistics tab displays details similar to the one displayed in the Current Training Session tab. |
05.31 | The Monitor Progress tab displays a graphical representation of the progress of your typing. |
05.38 | Let us close this dialogue box. |
05.41 | You can also create your own "short cut keys". |
05.45 | What are short cut keys? |
05.47 | Short cut keys are combination of two or more keys, which can be pressed from the keyboard, instead of using the Menu options. |
05.56 | Let us configure a short cut key to view Lecture Statistics. |
06.01 | From the Main menu, click Settings, Configure "Short cuts". |
06.06 | The Configure Short cuts – KTouch dialogue box appears. |
06.10 | In the Search box enter Lecture Statistics. |
06.16 | Click Lecture Statistics.
Select Custom and click None. The icon changes to Input. |
06.24 | Now, from the keyboard, press the "SHIFT and A" keys together. |
06.30 | Notice, that the icon now displays the letters "Shift+A". Click OK. |
06.38 | Now, press the "Shift and A" keys together.The Training Statistics dialogue box appears. |
06.45 | Click Close to exit. |
06.49 | KTouch also allows you to configure toolbars. |
06.53 | Let us say we want to display the Quit Ktouch command as an icon. |
06.58 | From the Main menu, click Settings, and click Configure Toolbars. |
07.03 | The Configure Toolbars – KTouch dialogue box appears. |
07.07 | In the left panel, from the list of option, select the Quit icon.Double-click on it. |
07.15 | The icon is moved to the right panel. Click Apply and then click OK. |
