<title>Turn on sticky keys</title>
<p><em>Sticky keys</em> allows you to type keyboard shortcuts one key at a
time rather than having to hold down all of the keys at once. For example,
the <keyseq><key xref="keyboard-key-super">Super</key><key>Tab</key></keyseq>
shortcut switches between windows. Without sticky keys turned on, you would
have to hold down both keys at the same time; with sticky keys turned on, you
would press <key>Super</key> and then <key>Tab</key> to do the same.</p>
<p>You might want to turn on sticky keys if you find it difficult to hold
down several keys at once.</p>
<steps>
<item>
<p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#activities">Activities</gui> overview and
start typing <gui>Universal Access</gui>.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Click on <gui>Universal Access</gui> to open the panel.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Press <gui>Typing Assist (AccessX)</gui> in the <gui>Typing</gui>
section.</p>
</item>
<item>
<p>Switch <gui>Sticky Keys</gui> to <gui>ON</gui>.</p>
</item>
</steps>
<note style="tip">
<title>Quickly turn sticky keys on and off</title>
<p>Under <gui>Enable by Keyboard</gui>, select
<gui>Turn on accessibility features from the keyboard</gui>
to turn sticky keys on and off from the keyboard. When this option is
selected, you can press <key>Shift</key> five times in a row to enable or
disable sticky keys.</p>
<p>You can also turn sticky keys on and off by clicking the
<link xref="a11y-icon">accessibility icon</link> on the top bar and
selecting <gui>Sticky Keys</gui>. The accessibility icon is visible when
one or more settings have been enabled from the <gui>Universal Access</gui>
panel.</p>
</note>
<p>If you press two keys at once, you can have sticky keys turn itself off
temporarily to let you enter a keyboard shortcut in the normal way.</p>
<p>For example, if you have sticky keys turned on but press <key>Super</key>
and <key>Tab</key> simultaneously, sticky keys would not wait for you to
press another key if you had this option turned on. It <em>would</em> wait if
you only pressed one key, however. This is useful if you are able to press
some keyboard shortcuts simultaneously (for example, keys that are close
together), but not others.</p>
<p>Select <gui>Disable if two keys are pressed together</gui> to enable
this.</p>
<p>You can have the computer make a “beep” sound when you start typing a
keyboard shortcut with sticky keys turned on. This is useful if you want to
know that sticky keys is expecting a keyboard shortcut to be typed, so the
next key press will be interpreted as part of a shortcut. Select <gui>Beep
when a modifier key is pressed</gui> to enable this.</p>
