Dvorak keyboard layout problem
Hi,
I'm just setting up a new laptop, with Win7HP, 64bit. I use the Dvorak keyboard layout.
I'm getting frequent instances in Chrome of the layout shifting to qwerty. This would happen rarely on XP, but it's at least daily on W7.
When it happens, it's relegated to Chrome. It does not manifest in other apps that I might open. So it can't be a case of accidental hitting the switching hotkey, right? Nonetheless I've just disabled the hotkey in CP.
The other program I use a lot is Word 03. I haven't seen this happen there, though I haven't used it much on this machine yet.
When this happens in Chrome, it affect edit boxes. But I don't believe application hotkeys are affected. It seems like a corruption of the layout interpretation rather than a clean full switch.
I still have the standard US qwerty layout listed in Control Panel. I guess my next step is to delete it. But I'm wondering if anyone has experience with this kind of problem.
Thanks,
Paul
