Full-size Keyboard

[Melissa Hassel]

Ifyou tap on the screen with your finger it;ll bring up the full size keyboard. If you haven't figured it out yet. If you tap with the Pencil it expects you to write what you want to type... then translates it into type. This is an Apple iPad OS14 thing, not Adobe.

I am having the same problem, where sometimes it brings up the keyboard and other times doesn't. I have tried so many things by now and I'm totally desperate, but for the last 45 minutes my only struggle in the project is trying to make the keyboard work.

I have a ton of full width keyboards. Definitely the keychron K10 is the nicest sounding hotswap keyboard out of the box, and is cheap. I swapped back to a (non hotswap) filco, but the keychron was pretty good.

The switches really are great, especially for the price. And now also 5-Pin in some cases. I got recently some V3 Cream Yellow and they are great even stock. And also some Jelly Pinks in other boards.

With a weight of approximately 2.5kg, M5 is a full-sized south-facing aluminum barebone kit. M5 is equipped with 108 keys, making it a 100% barebone kit that boasts a multitude of function buttons and a numeric area. This feature-rich design enables...

I guess the real question is which is more ready out-of-the-box. MonsGeek admits that its stabilizers, while PCB-mount, are not factory-lubed. If Keychron even has a minor factory-lube, then it could be more-ready [requiring essentially no work for decency.] However, I read of people force-break modding their Keychron anyway, and doing all sorts of user-dampening, lubing the stabilizers, and so-on.

I also recommend seeing whether some vendors have switch sampler packs. CannonKeys does. Switch Oddities also sells single switches of all kinds and are nice people, though the price is higher to support their business model.

Now the optional keyboards that are displayed are (ash silver). Does this mean the keys are silver against a black or gray background (ie the remainder of the board)? Is the whole board bright silver? I really would prefer not having a full silver keyboard, trackpad, palm rests, etc.

This is all kind of confusing. Are there any full size pictures available that exhibit the backlit (ash silver) keyboard so that I can see if its something i can live with? Are there any options for a black backlit keyboard?

Because HP usually uses a consistent design theme, I would expect the ash silver to be similar in colour to smoke gray. Any colour scheme HP states with an "ash" usually is reference to dark grey. If you are unhappy with the product, you could always consider an exchange or refund.

Thanks for the comment. I was afraid I was inviting a bit of flame over such a minor matter, but I see im not alone in disliking a silver keyboard. Primarily for the reason mentioned that it is a periferal distraction. I prefer that the keys/background/screen-bezel disappear (visually) as much as possible when I'm photo edititing or designing something.

Here's an edit to this. The thread poster here was unhappy with the readability of the keys on his spectre "ash silver" keyboard. He replaced it with a black keyboard and announced that he was very happy with the result. But the photos below would suggest a pretty darn "silvery" keypad and surround.

Not concerned with the color of the keys, the full-size island-style backlit keyboard with numeric keypad simply has the additional keys for the number pad included. I like that feature and didn't really care what color they were.

Varmilo is a mechanical keyboard brand founded in 2013 with a mission to elevate users through better looking, more fun, and more durable keyboard products. We want to exceed expectations of what a mechanical keyboard should be.

In December I replaced my six year-old HP laptop, which had outlived its expected service life by at least 2x. It was showing its age: it was annoyingly under-powered; it was twice as heavy as modern equivalents; its battery life was about 20 minutes; and the embossed letters on one-quarter of its keys had been impressively worn off.

At just $20, the VicTsing Ultra-thin Combo Model PC132A is at the opposite end of the price spectrum. I assumed that its build quality and durability would be lacking, but I was willing to take the chance.

The keyboard is almost perfect, IMO. The keys are responsive and low-travel, and need only a light touch. And it sits low (just 0.16 to 0.59 inches tall, front to back), eliminating the need for a wrist rest.

The Jelly Comb is nice, but I instead settled on the Moko Ultra Thin Combo (ASIN B078MCFCDX). The two units are nearly identical: the keyboards and mice share the same size and format, and the keys have the same feel. Even the boxes are identical, except the printed-on branding.

Additionally, 2.4 GHz wireless keyboards, mice, etc., have lacked robust security in the past and have not been not as secure as Bluetooth devices. This may be a moot point if you live in a space where a digital intruder cannot get physically closer than 10m or so, it is of much greater concern in a public location which your setup will not be exposed to.

I prefer mechanical as well and I have older corded Filco on my desktop at home, though more and more I find myself using laptops and though I like some of their keyboards more than others, have finally gotten used to them.

When I measure an octave on my CT-S1, it is 162 to 163 mm depending on the octave. The statement that a full size octave = exactly 165 mm is incorrect. There is some acceptable variation from one manufacturer to the next. If you go to two different grand pianos, you will find some variation too. 2 or 3 mm per octave should not cause frequent mistakes. I think that the texture on the keys, the height and depth of the keys, and the key action are all much more likely to impact the number of mistakes compared to a very small difference in width. Lots of information on this topic available here: -piano-keys-same-size/

Have you actually played a real acoustic piano? I have. I own one. I don't go between it and my CT-S1 (nor any of my other Casio keyboards) and notice any difference in the size of the keys. IMNSHO, you are wasting your time with this. Either the CT-S1 works for you or it does not. I have not heard a single other person complain about the key size of the CT-S series, and in fact, most people are blown away about the combination of portability and sound quality. I have a friend who busked across the U.S. with her CT-S1 and loves it. She also has an acoustic grand piano at home.

Among my large collection of keyboards and synths, I have a modern Casiotone CT-S1000V and also a CT-S300. I also have a 1980 CT-201, the first ever Casio keyboard model. My other half, who is a professional classically trained pianist and accompanist, has a 1974 K. Kawai Grand Piano at home and a Casio Privia portable electric piano (with hammer action and weighted keys) for when a portable piano is needed. We have switched between all of these keyboards and never once has it been felt that the Casiotones weren't full sized keys. My partner has also played my Casios/ Casiotones on my recordings (when I needed a (much) better/ more skilled keyboard player), and never had an issue with their key size.
