How win8 allows different windows to automatically switch input method

First, press the “Win+X” shortcut in Windows 8 to bring up the quick link menu at the bottom left of the interface and select “Control Panel”.

In the Win8 control panel, select “clock, language and region —language" in the "language" setting panel, we can see the current Win8 system language type and corresponding input method . Click the “Advanced Settings" on the left side of the interface to enter the overall settings of the Win8 system input method.

The focus is on! Check the "Advanced Settings" interface in the language "Allow me to set a different input method for each application window", click the “Save” button. Here, the "different input method" refers not only to two completely different input methods, but also to the input state of a different language (Chinese/English) of an input method.

After the setup is complete, we try to open two text editing software at will, Notepad, WordPad or Office can create two new documents, one to use Chinese input status, one to use English input status.

Now we can see that when we move the cursor to a different document editing window, the input method will automatically switch to the language state (Chinese/English) just edited. In other words, in the Chinese-edited document window, Win8 input method will automatically maintain the Chinese input state; when we switch to the English editing document window, Win8 will automatically adjust to the English input state, is it very convenient?

In addition to automatically switching the Chinese and English states of the input method, Win8 can also automatically switch between different input methods in different program windows. For example, we use Google input method in one window and Microsoft simple input method in another window. Win8 system can help us remember and switch automatically.

It should be noted that this automatic switching is only valid for the currently open program window. Once the program is closed and then opened again, the input method will switch to the default input state and the previous input method status will not be recorded.
