I don't get this - wouldn't you just accidentally press the F-keys if the touch bar wasn't there?
Also, when my fingers are on home row, I can't even reach the touch bar without overextending/completely flattening my hand, which is hard to accidentally do while typing (and I have larger than normal hands).
- atombender 7y agoThe Touch Bar is very sensitive and picks up accidental touches. F-keys require pressing down. Personally, I tend to unconciously rest my hands spread out over the keyboard when I'm not typing. My thumbs are down by the space bar, and my fingers on top of the Touch Bar.
