Hi guys :)
I haven't been able to keep up with the list recently, crook again (me,
not it :) ), but my OW beta did announce the full release, so that's
definitely something to celebrate!
My current problem is with keyboard layout choice. I haven't previously
had much reason to use my Vietnamese (Unicode) keyboard layout in OW,
which I use constantly elsewhere, because so few sites support Unicode
input.
However, I've started doing some voluntary translating in an online
translation site called Rosetta, part of the Ubuntu Linux community:
http://www.ubuntulinux.org/wiki/RosettaReleaseAnnouncement (general
site)
https://launchpad.ubuntu.com/rosetta/ (input location, may ask for
login, though)
and for every new string, and often within one string, I have to keep
changing back to my Vietnamese keyboard. It persistently defaults back
to the Australian English keyboard, probably because it's an
English-based install, no Vietnamese-based install being available for
Mac.
So I waste a lot of time deleting what I've written, changing keyboards
again and retyping it. It's really aggravating.
(I already have Vietnamese set as my preferred language, and Google,
for example, now presents in Vietnamese, which is great.)
Is there any way I can set my Vietnamese Unicode keyboard as the
default one, system-wide, or just for OW? I realize this is probably
not a OW problem, but I thought I'd ask, just in case that
super-configurable browser has even more tools in its set. :)
