What is 'Application Type'? Why setting of 'Application Type' is necessary?

[ModeratorRA]

Different applications in Windows behave differently while entering text in Indian scripts. In order to overcome these problem applications are categorized broadly into five types namely Application Type 1 to Application Type 5. All the applications that fall into these categories appear as sub menu of these application types. Choosing any of these applications chooses the corresponding type. If the application you are using is not listed in any of these types, then you may have to try out these types and find the most suitable application type.
Shree-Lipi may not work correctly with new Windows Applications or a new version of the software i.e. composition may not work properly, you may get repeated characters or characters may not appear at all. In such a scenario you may have to tune Shree-Lipi to work with the respective application.

To do this-

1. Click on the icon of Shree-Lipi in the system tray.
2. Uncheck 'Automatic Detection of Application Type'.
3. Click on 'Application' option.
4. Keep on changing the 'Application Type' one at a time and try composing in the application using Shree-Lipi.
5. Repeat the above step until you are satisfied with the performance.
6. The correct 'Application Type' will be preserved for future use.
