Keyboard Menu

Most keystrokes are forwarded directly to the connected host computer. However,

some special key combinations, such as Ctrl-Alt-Del, are blocked by the notebook’s

operating system.
Click on the keyboard icon of the toolbar (

), or use the menu option More special

keys to bring up a dialog box with common special key sequences that you can send

manually.

At the bottom of this menu are checkboxes (toggle buttons) for each of the meta keys

(both left and right). When checked, the key-down event is sent. When the checkbox

is unchecked, the key-up event is sent. This means you can use them to compose

complex sequences not shown on this screen. Use the Reset button to uncheck all

boxes. Clicking any of the keys above the line also resets the checkboxes.
E.g. Checking L-Window and then using your keyboard to press the letter E will send

Window+E (which starts Windows Explorer)
Note: The L-Window button at the top will send both a key-down and key-up signal,

whereas the checkbox labeled L-Window at the bottom, will send a key-down when

checked, and then a key-up only when cleared.
