Chapter 3: Using Windows Embedded 6.5
The Softkey Bar
48 EP10 Hand-Held (Windows Embedded 6.5) User Manual
The Soft Keyboard Icon
Tapping on the soft keyboard icon displays an onscreen keyboard you can use as an alterna-
tive to the EP10 keyboard.
Shift-State Indicator Icon
The softkey bar can also display the shift-state indicator icon. This icon indicates active
modifier keys–[SHIFT], [ALT], [CTRL], [ORANGE] and [BLUE].
Tap on Start>Settings>Buttons>One Shots. Tap in the checkbox next to Show modi-
fier key state, to replace the soft keyboard icon with the shift-state indicator icon.
When a modifier key is pressed, it is displayed in the shift-state indicator icon. In the
example above, the [ORANGE] key was activated.
To distinguish a ‘locked’ modifier key – a key that has been locked ‘on’ – from a modifier
key that is only active until the next key is pressed, ‘locked’ keys are encircled in a black
frame in the shift-state indicator icon. Refer to “Activating Modifier Keys & the Shift-State
Indicator” on page 16 for details.
Shift-state indicator icon
Note: You can still access the soft keyboard while the shift-state indicator icon is displayed.
Tapping on this icon displays the soft keyboard. Tapping on the shift-state indicator
icon again removes the soft keyboard.
