This article shows how to configure the appearance of the on-screen keyboard in IGEL OS.

The layout for the normal keyboard is used for the on-screen keyboard.



Menu path: User Interface > Input > Touchscreen > On-screen keyboard > Appearance





Show function keys

☑ The on-screen keyboard features the function keys [F1] ... [F12]. (Default)



Show navigation keys

☑ The on-screen keyboard features the arrow keys for navigating on the screen. (Default)



Show Numpad

☑ The on-screen keyboard features the number block.

☐ The on-screen keyboard does not feature the number block. (Default)



Enable switching to alternative layout

☑ The on-screen keyboard has an additional key by which the user can toggle between the normal layout and a reduced layout. The reduced layout resembles the numpad, with the following differences:

  • Additional backspace key [←]

  • Additional tab key [↹]

  • Additional space key [ ]

  • Additional escape key [Esc]

  • Return key [⏎] instead of [Enter] key

☐ Switching to the reduced layout is not possible. (Default)
