There is a keyboard layout called Old Typewriter in the Tamil language. Only the Keyman App provides this. I am happy. Thank you.
I own an iPad 10th Generation. I have updated it to iOS version 18.5.
I have already downloaded the Keyman App on this iPad.
To obtain the aforementioned Tamil Old Typewriter keyboard, I have also set up the “Tamil Typewriter (Visual Media)” setting provided by the Keyman App.
After this, the Tamil Old Typewriter keyboard appeared on my iPad screen. I am very happy.
However, that keyboard does not switch over to the physical keyboard connected to my iPad.
Because of this, I am unable to type using the Tamil Old Typewriter keyboard through my physical keyboard.
Please help me resolve physical keyboard integration issue.
The letter displayed on the on-screen keyboard is not being registered when I type on my physical keyboard, and I have attached a video showing this issue.
The Tamil Old Typewriter Keyboard Online integrates well with a physical keyboard, and it works great. I’m very happy and grateful for this.
However, there is a small glitch.
In the Tamil Old Type Writer online system, certain letters have a dot placed above them, similar to how the letter “i” in English has a dot above it. In English, pressing a single key registers the letter “i” along with its dot, without needing a separate key for the dot.
In Tamil, however, since many letters require a dot above them, there is a dedicated key for adding the dot.
In the Tamil Old Typewriter Keyboard system, you need to press the dot key first and then the key for the corresponding letter.
But in the online keyboard, it works the opposite way—you have to press the letter key first and then the dot key.
மால்கம் - This is Tamil old type writer. This is correct.
But in online key board, letter registered like
மா்லக்ம - This is not correct word.
This is a minor glitch.
If this is fixed, we will have a perfect Tamil Old Typewriter Keyboard.
