I switched to laptop layout for last 6 months and then recently switched to default layout using the Fn key is better as compared to laptop layout.

Among many other things, the key combinations for doing things are poorly documented, if at all, as you found out. Choose the hotkey menu choice from within window eyes, and choose the mouse hotkeys, and you can go down the list of functions, looking for the ones you need, and seeing what hotkeys are assigned to them. Unfortunately, some of them don't work (they're hard-coded to be the standard layout commands), so when someone assigns them to have laptop equivalents, they don't work. It's another grump. If you are going to just use your laptop, you'll eventually figure things out; but if you will be switching to a desktop keyboard, you may find it hard to keep the 2 layouts straight. In that case, Raol from GW suggested I just use the standard keyboard layout on my laptop. The only thing you have to get used to is that to use the functions assigned to the numeric pad, you have to simulate the numeric pad by holding down the fn key on your laptop and using the group of keys where j k l and semi are the bottom row of the numeric pad equivalent to the 1 2 3 and enter. The keys above them, the u i o and p are the middle row (the 4 5 6 and plus), and so on. Remember, you're holding down the fn key and then these keys of the right hand. You're also trying to hold down the insert and maybe a control as well, so it's not easy, but with window eyes, there isn't an easy laptop solution. hth, Chip ------------------------------ Chip Orange Database Administrator Florida Public Service Commission [email protected] (850) 413-6314 (Any opinions expressed are solely those of the author and do not necessarily reflect those of the Florida Public Service Commission.) > -----Original Message----- > From: Larry Naessens [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Friday, December 26, 2008 7:28 PM > To: GW Micro > Subject: Net Book Keyboard Question > > Hi there.
