Core Boards to include verb

tjrexer opened this issue · 1 comments

When using the core boards from mycoughdrop.com, the user clicks a verb, such as go and a list of options comes up. However, after selecting the desired location, such as outside what is rendered is I want to outside instead of an expected I want to go outside.

I'm not sure if this is expected behavior, but it is confusing for someone new to the project.

This is expected behavior for those boards: Quick Core boards "double up" some buttons on the home board to access both frequent words and subboards. If you want the frequent word ("go"), you press the button twice. If you want a word in the subboard ("outside"), you press the button for "go" and then for "outside".

This is not universal behavior! Some boards work the way you suggest, and you can change a button to work that way with the "Also add button to the vocalization box" checkbox under "Action" when you click on the button in edit mode.

I wouldn't suggest doing this with Quick Core, because then it would become difficult to communicate "Let's eat outside" -- you'd have to tap "Let's", "eat", back, "go", backspace, "outside".
