I’ve recently started trying to improve my typing speed, which has probably been held back by my somewhat unconventional typing style. Formal touch typing was never a part of my education, and while years of computer use eventually led to me being able to type without looking, I’m probably not as efficient as I could be.
Can you touch type - and with proper form? QWERTY, DVORAK or other layout?
Yes. I was a video editor for years and part of that was subtitling without automatic transcriptions. I could keep up with most speakers and if I’m remembering correctly, the typing speed tests I took for fun were 150wpm+
It’s definitely a skill I’ve taken for granted but it’s paying off big now that I work almost exclusively in AutoCAD (which makes you type commands, not just keyboard shortcuts)
Unrelated but that aspect of Autocad is a big part of why freecad sucks to me
Everything without LISP routines sucks to me so I’m stuck on ACAD forever
