I have tried Thumb-Key before where I didn’t really try to learn much, but since I recently decided to change my desktop layout to a variation of the Gallium layout called Lucens, I decided to also give Thumb-Key another try on my phone and it has been a pretty cool learning experience, I can definitely see the potential here once I get fast enough.
That being said I’m having trouble with some gestures that I can’t get consistency with. Specifically Drag-and-return and Circular Drag.
With Drag-and-return, it only works on the letters that need swipe for me to capitalize them. And with Circular drag, I can’t consistently make it work, doing the same gesture, it sometimes capitalize, sometimes not, sometimes input the number, sometimes not.
Is there some tips for getting this right?
You may need to tweak the minimum swipe length. 40 seems to work best.
