On Screen Keyboard this is cool
if you ever mess up your keyboard!*
I'm not sure how many of you would
like to use this, but I thought it would be a neat little idea to share with
you all. Did you know that you can put a keyboard on your computer screen
and actually type with it?
If that sounds interesting to you, then
follow these directions. Go to Start, Run and type in osk Click OK
and a mini keyboard will pop up on your screen. Now, open up the program
you want to write in and start clicking the letters on the keyboard with
your mouse. The letters will appear and your typing will be
done.
This may not be the quickest way to type, but if you like to use
your mouse and you don't exactly like typing on the keyboard, this is
perfect for you.
Once you have the keyboard on your screen, you can even
go to the Settings menu and choose your own font and size. There is also a
sound option, so if you like to hear the keys clicking, choose "Use
clicking sound." In the Keyboard menu, you can also choose the
number of keys you would like to have displayed, between 101, 102 and
106.
Isn't that cool? I just used it to type this last sentence.
Keep in mind that it might take you a little while to get acquainted with
the keys on the on screen keyboard, but it's definitely worth a shot and
it's kinda fun. There's also a Help menu if you need any further help
figuring it all out.
