Milos Prudek Czech Republic Local time: 15:37 English to Czech + ...
May 9, 2011
Hi,
I am evaluating Swordfish 2.0.6. When I press Ctrl- numkeypad 1 to insert a tag, no tag is inserted. Only the normal, top line keys work with Ctrl-1. Numpad keys do not work. I much prefer numpad to top line (because Czech keyboard requires me to press Shift to get numbers there).
Does anyone else also have this problem, especially on Linux?

Use the numbers at the top of the keyboard or make sure your numeric keypad is sending the code that corresponds to "1" when you press that key.
Notice that the actual key code sent by the main keyboard may be different from the key code sent by the numeric keypad.

Anyone?
May 9, 2011
I was asking if anyone else has this problem or if I am really the only one.
On Linux you can change the codes assiged to each key at will using the system provided tools.
If this were possible on a per application basis, i.e. to change it for Swordfish only, it might solve this problem. A system-wide change is less desirable. Could you tell me the names of these tools you mentioned?
