Description Burkhard Lück 2010-01-15 21:39:50 UTC

Version:            (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

On kde-doc-english@kde.org we got a comment wrt the docs:
"It would be helpful to add units for keyboard repeat delay and repeat frequency."

Looking at the module you see, that even the gui has no units for these values.

Units are milliseconds here?

But why is Delay an integer and the Rate a real value with 2 decimal places? That is inconsistent and makes really no sense.

Please add the units to the GUI and make Delay and Rate both integer fields.
