I recently downloaded and installed OKey for my NX and it works as supposed for the most part. The Super Jog Assist and the Scroll Up/Down options are a must, I canīt imagine going back to the way it was before.
However, being the complete moron I am, I can't for the life of me figure out what does the third option (Sticky Key) does.
Can anyone enlight me on that one? :confused:

It is in the pdf file that came with OKey.
Usage
start OKey and tap [Enable] button.

On the device with CLIE Keyboard, When it is enabled, following functions are assigned for

key input. Ctrl-X means that pressing X key (do not need shift key) with control key.

Ctrl-O Select [OK] button

Ctrl-K Select [Cancel] button

Ctrl-P Focus previous button

Ctrl-N Focus next button

Ctrl-J Select focused button

If the device has Jog dial, Super Jog Assist checkbox is appeared when OKey is enabled. If

Super Jog Assist checkbox is checked, push and keep Jog button cause changing into

Super Jog Assist mode. In this mode, JogUp is assigned as Ctrl-P, JogDown as Ctrl-N and

JogPush is assigned as Ctrl-J. You can escape this mode by Back button.

On the device with 5Way Navigation key, push and keep SELECT button cause changing

into Super Jog Assist mode. In this mode, one control on a form is inversed (focused). If

you keep more long time, current application quits and goes to launcher and escape from

It woks with the keyboard! Since I don't use the keyboard alot, I can't elaborate further. There is a PDF document that comes with Okey that explains the keyboard functions it adds!

Actually, the PDF doesn't cover what the Sticky Key Mode does. With this mode enabled, you can hit the Shift Key and release it, then hit a letter key, and the letter will be capitalized. Same thing for the Function key. Without this option enabled, you have to hold the Shift key down while hitting the letter to have it capitalized.

Can someone please elaborate on the function of Super Jog Assist? The English in the manual is so fractured I'm having difficulty deciphering it. What exactly do Ctrl-P, Ctrl-N, and Ctrl-J do?

IMO, the Ctrl-P, Ctrl-N, is a PITA. The SuperJogAssist also allows you to hold the Jog Button down in an app for about 2 seconds, after which it highlights one of the "buttons" on the screen. You can then scroll the jog dial to select a different button, and press the jog dial to select one. I use it to play SeahorseSoft Euchre while on the can, where I don't want to pull my stylus out!! Also works well in Handstory to select a different category, and in DB5 to select different days or views.

:) Lol, sorry about that. It's just I had one REALLY bad experience where my stylus fell where I didn't want to retrieve it, so I try to find anything I can to prevent that from happening again!! I still have the emotional scars from that day!!

lol, I think I knew when I wrote that that I would really regret it later!! But, I didn't want to give the impression that I was too lazy to just hit the cards with my stylus. Ahhhh.
