And I have never, in more than twenty-five years of using a Mac laptop and surrounding myself with people who do the same, seen anyone try to _touch-type_ a function key.
- losvedir 7y agoOoh, I do! Or at least, did, before touch bar. I use Apptivate to remap them to my most used programs. So I could touch type to bring up Finder, Terminal, Chrome, Sublime, etc.
- jmkni 7y agoHow do you step through code? I use the Function keys to step over/into/out of methods/functions when debugging, without having to look down at the keyboard.
- babuskov 7y agoThat's because the design of keyboard prevents it. There should be a gap between F4 and F5 and also between F8 and F9. If the gaps were there, I know I would use it. On my desk where I use the Mac around 60% of the time, I have an USB keyboard that has the gaps and I'm touch-typing F keys on it. It's the only thing I really hate when I use the laptop's keyboard directly.
