skylee Posted November 8, 2007 at 02:04 PM Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 at 02:04 PM I use the same version. Try clicking the language bar, then click on the downward arrow head on the right. You should then be able to choose from the menu to display the 繁/簡 (Charset) button on the language bar. Choose it and you would be able to toggle the choice.

rezaf Posted November 8, 2007 at 02:58 PM Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 at 02:58 PM 昨天晚上在書法課我們學了一些繁體字。我一看就對繁體字產生了興趣。我一到家就學了30個繁體字。雖然大家說繁體字很難，但是我學得很快，而且學了以後看來我不會忘記。 very strange! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calibre2001 Posted March 21, 2008 at 11:42 PM Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 at 11:42 PM Is this option of traditional characters w pinyin using IME 3.0 available on XP? I remember having it with Vista but can't seem to enable it with XP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luobot Posted March 22, 2008 at 02:07 AM Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 at 02:07 AM Is this option of traditional characters w pinyin using IME 3.0 available on XP? Yes. You have to install it first, through Control Panel, to Regional & Language Options, the Languages tab, then the Details button, then the Add button (under the Settings tab), that gives you the Add Input Language dialog box, then select the Input Language from the dropdown, such as Chinese Taiwan or Chinese HK (not Chinese PRC, obviously, unless you want simplified), and press OK. Finally, it should show up on your language bar, as Skylee indicated. There's probably a much better set of instructions written up somewhere around here, but I think that's essentially it.

imron Posted March 22, 2008 at 09:11 AM Report Share Posted March 22, 2008 at 09:11 AM The better set of instructions is to install Google's pinyin IME. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tooironic Posted March 23, 2008 at 03:10 AM Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 at 03:10 AM Yes! Love my google input ^_^ It's sooooo much faster than Windows's crappy IME. And it predicts stuff so much more accurately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt_Strider Posted April 5, 2008 at 11:17 PM Report Share Posted April 5, 2008 at 11:17 PM Imron, I use Google Pinyin myself, but how do you get the program to output traditional characters? Also, do you need the program active even when you're typing in English? I know you can press "shift" to disable it, but I always accidentally reactivate it by pressing "shift" again. So I just go to the language bar menu and disable Google Pinyin until I need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imron Posted April 6, 2008 at 01:17 AM Report Share Posted April 6, 2008 at 01:17 AM If you click on the settings button, one of the options will be to switch to 繁体字. Instead of using the shift-key, you might want to use the keyboard shortcut ctrl-space instead. This will swap between Chinese and English input methods.

ABCinChina Posted April 10, 2008 at 06:42 AM Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 at 06:42 AM I used to use Windows IME, but I noticed that it does not pick words correctly and that it lags more than Google IME. Regarding Google IME, there seems to be only two options they give you for switching between English and Chinese which are Shift or Ctrl. I just switched it over to Ctrl which seems a lot better. I recommend that everyone use Google IME since it is so damn efficient! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
