F1 ... F12 Function Keys; Soft Keys: Fn Key Combinations - Toshiba Satellite P10 series User Manual

F1 ... F12 function keys

The function keys, not to be confused with Fn, are the 12 keys at the top of your
keyboard. These keys are dark gray, but function differently from the other dark
gray keys.
F1 through F12 are called function keys because they execute programmed
functions when pressed. Used in combination with the Fn key, keys marked with
icons execute specific functions on the computer. See the section, Soft keys: Fn
key combinations, in this chapter. The function executed by individual keys
depends on the software you are using.

Soft keys: Fn key combinations

The Fn (function) key is unique to TOSHIBA computers and is used in
combination with other keys to form soft keys. Soft keys are key combinations
that enable, disable or configure specific features.
NOTE: Some software may disable or interfere with soft-key operations.
Soft-key settings are not restored by the Standby feature.
