NuKeySwipe typing and gestures
Glide across the letters, then use swipes on Delete and the space bar for fast editing.
Swipe to type
Turn on Swipe to type in Keys → Typing, then slide across the letters of a word without lifting. It is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Dutch and Brazilian Portuguese.
- Choose a trail style (the line that follows your finger) and a trail colour that every style uses.
- Swiping is switched off in Nuke Mode.
TipIf a word lands wrong, check that the on-board language matches the one you are writing, then try a slightly slower swipe that touches each letter's key.
Swipe Delete to remove words
With Swipe Delete to remove words on, swipe left across Delete to remove a word at a time. Swipe back to put them back. Faster hold to delete separately speeds up holding Delete and reaches whole-word deletion sooner.
The space bar
| Space bar cursor glide | Drag slowly across the space bar to move the cursor, no need to hold first. A quick flick still switches language. |
|---|---|
| Swipe left on space for a comma | Flick left across the space bar to type a comma and a space. With more than one language on, flicking right still switches language. |
| Double space for full stop | Two quick space taps type a full stop. |
Press feedback
- Key preview pops the pressed character up in a bubble above the key.
- Key press animation sinks and darkens keys while they are pressed.
- Key press tilt tips each cap toward where your finger lands on it.
