Keyboard Configuration
Also known as: Keyboard Customisation, Keyboard Settings
The process of adjusting keyboard behaviour and settings to match an individual user's needs and abilities. For people with motor disabilities, keyboard configuration may include enabling accessibility features such as Sticky Keys, Repeat Keys, Bounce Keys, or Slow Keys, as well as adjusting timing parameters, remapping keys, or using alternative keyboard layouts. Effective keyboard configuration can dramatically reduce input errors and improve typing efficiency, but many users are unaware of available options or lack guidance in choosing appropriate settings.
