Time Narration
00:00 Welcome to the Spoken Tutorial on Configuring Settings 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 shortcut 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 practiced 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's 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 "shortcut keys".
05:45 What are shortcut keys?
05:47 Shortcut 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 shortcut 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.
