Change the button spacing

1 minute read | May 18, 2022

Sometimes, it can be helpful to increase the space between buttons in Proloquo2Go. You might need to do this if you are using a keyguard. It can also be helpful for users who often accidentally hit adjacent buttons or need more visual contrast between buttons.

Folder with spaced out buttons

To adjust button spacing:

  1. Tap the Options* Options icon button at the far right of the bottom toolbar.
  2. Go to Appearance.
  3. Under View, tap Advanced Options.
  4. Tap Button Spacing.
  5. Choose the option you want. The looser the setting, the more space between buttons. Keep in mind that as the spacing increases, buttons get smaller.

Suggested articles

  • Change the button color-coding and/or page background
  • Gradually introduce core words with Progressive Language
  • Reduce accidental selections

* On iPhone and iPod touch, you will find the Options button in the Tools popup at the far left of the bottom toolbar.
