2.2.7 To Enable the Repeat Keys Feature

The repeat keys feature enables you to repeat a keystroke multiple times without pressing the key more than once. This feature is designed for users who cannot release keys quickly, for example users who operate a mouth stick. When you enable repeat keys, you can specify the duration for which you must press a key before the key starts to repeat.

To enable and configure the repeat keys feature, perform the following steps:

1. Click Launch, then choose Preferences -> Accessibility -> Keyboard.

2. Click on the Basic tab.

3. Select the Enable Repeat Keys option.

4. Use the Delay slider or spin box to specify the duration for which you must press a key before the keyboard interprets the action as a repeat key. If you have difficulty releasing keys, select a long time delay.

5. Use the Speed slider or spin box to specify the speed at which the keyboard repeats the keypress as input.
