Moving from Gõ Nhanh to KeyVi
Whether Gõ Nhanh can export data still needs to be checked, and KeyVi cannot read Gõ Nhanh's export files yet. Bring your macros over with the plain text template, then set the mode for each app again from the KeyVi menu.
Get your macros out of Gõ Nhanh
- Open Gõ Nhanh's settings and find the macro list, or an export or backup feature. VERIFY Whether this feature exists.
- Copy each row (shortcut, expansion) into a text file using the plain text template, saved as UTF-8.
Screenshots will be added once each step has been checked on a real install VERIFY
VERIFY The steps above describe what you see in that app's own window and have not yet been checked against the latest version. If a label differs, follow the closest one and tell us so we can fix this page.
Import into KeyVi
- Open KeyVi, go to Settings > Macros > Import from file... (or choose Choose file... at the import step during setup).
- Read the preview: counts of new, duplicate and invalid rows. For duplicates, choose to keep yours or use the imported one.
- Invalid rows are skipped with a reason; one bad row never ruins the whole import.
Quit Gõ Nhanh and stop it from opening at login
Two input methods at once make letters double or vanish. Quit Gõ Nhanh and stop it from starting at login.
- Click the Gõ Nhanh icon in the menu bar and choose quit. VERIFY The menu item name in the current version.
- Open System Settings > General > Login Items & Extensions. In the Open at Login list, select Gõ Nhanh and press the minus (-) button. VERIFY The item names on each macOS version.
- If Gõ Nhanh has its own start-at-login option in its settings, turn that off too. VERIFY
