If you have been creating a number of dead key states, you may come to the point where you realise that one or more is no longer necessary, and there is no way to actually get to that state, because the dead key either has been deleted or changed to a different dead key state. In this case, the dead key states are still available in the keyboard layout, but are not of use to the user of the keyboard layout. In fact, they merely add some extra size to the file, and possibly incur a slight performance penalty when the keyboard layout is loaded by the operating system. To remove these dead key states, choose “Remove Unused States” from the Keyboard menu. Just be aware that you cannot undo this action. Previous page Next page Up to "Housekeeping"
