Re: typing speeds vs screen delay

I believe that HKCU setting is delay to repeat, not delay to translate on screen. It should only impact how long of a delay there is before the character whose button you are still depressing starts repeating.

Correct me if I am wrong, as I did not research in advance, but I have never known microsoft to intentionally introduce a typing lag.

I have the same problem, but if I tap the screen where I want the text to go, it clears the delay. I think something is grabbing input and holding it - kinda like the bug that takes us to the dialer. I think we just didn't hit the right button press order to get to the dialer.

I am reminded of a recent android bug where all keyboard input was echoed to console. They proved this by typing <Enter>reboot<Enter> and the phone rebooted everytime. I have to wonder if this is something similar...
