Sorry, I don't get it. DVORAK is a keyboard layout. What does that have to do with a typeball?

- jsimzeroone 3y agoThe idea would be that you would replace the "A" on the ball with the character that is in the QWERTY's A position the Dvorak keyboard, etc.
- 1MachineElf 3y agoExactly! A was an ironic choice for an example, however, because it's the one character in QWERTY that's got identical placement on Dvorak.
- kadoban 3y agoNit: 'm' matches as well. I think it's those two only.
- gmueckl 3y agoKeys are mapped to specific locations on the typeball. When you rearrange the letters on the typeball you remap the mapping between keys and the actual letters that get printed. So you get a different effective keyboard layout.
