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

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 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)
