Hi Im trying to create a phonetic keyboard layout for
Sinhala (sri lankan) language. but the thing is
I have to use same key several times for a rule
Example: group(Ayanna) using keys
+ 'a' > u+0d85
'a' + 'a' > u+0d86
'a' + 'i' > u+2546
bui when i debug this i only get the convertions for
+ 'a' > u+0d85. why is that and how im gonna do this please help me.

The Tavultesoft Forums are now read only.

| Mr Marc Durdin Tavultesoft Staff | This is due to the way that Keyman works - by context rather than by sequence. Documentation on this can be found at:
http://tavultesoft.com/keymandev/documentation/help/guide/rules.php In your example, you would need to use:
Using context rather than sequence makes Keyman much more powerful and flexible - and it becomes far easier to create complex keyboards once you understand this completely. I would recommend going through the tutorial as it is a good place to learn about some more of Keyman's development features: http://tavultesoft.com/keymandev/documentation/help/tutorial/tute_A_01.php | ||

| Mr Marc Durdin Tavultesoft Staff | This is possible with the IMX functionality in Keyman, but takes a bit more work to get going. We have a Chinese IMX keyboard at the following URL that you can see as an example:
http://www.tavultesoft.com/keyman/downloads/keyboards/details.php?KeyboardID=355 There is sample source code included with Keyman Developer (look in C:\Program Files\Tavultesoft\Keyman Developer\IMC) and documentation on creating IMX solutions is available at: http://www.tavultesoft.com/keymandev/documentation/help/imx/imxintro.php | ||

| Marc Durdin Tavultesoft Staff | Have a look at the sample IMX in the C:\Program Files\Tavultesoft\Keyman Developer\IMC directory.
When Keyman 7 is released, we plan to release the IMX source for the Chinese KMX keyboard referenced at https://secure.tavultesoft.com/forums/topic.php?ForumTopicID=48&ForumPostID=161#ForumPost_161 | ||
