I think this is new with iOS 11. IAC, it is distracting enough that I'd like to change it.
Is there a setting to have the iPad keyboard display ONLY show one character on a key? The only mode that appears to give a clean look now is when the #+= mode is in effect.
"flicks" eh? I saw all those options in Settings but didn't guess it was 'flicks'. (I did try switching off some of the others -- bad guesses.)
Something new to explore. Meanwhile, THANKS. Back to my clean-look keyboard.
Thanks. Eventually I'll give it a look.
RIght now I'm in the stress-window of having updated both my computer (a new MacBook) and as a result migrating from Mavericks to High Sierra -- and then also updating the iPad iOS from 10 to 11 (and having a bunch of apps no longer working).
I had put off both upgrades and then (amazingly) decided to jump on both during the same week. <sigh> Surprising things continue to work unchanged and other suprising things have changed.
My current sanity has this in the "things I don't want different" at the current moment. But it does sound like something I will come to appreciate.
setting > general > keyboard, turn off "flicks"
Finger flicks downward give you the secondary characters when it's turned on. I used to hate it but now find it easier than switching the keyboards around...
Can I set the iPad keyboard display to omit the grey alternative characters shown at the top of each key?
