Chapter 6: Operating System & Software Applications

Defining The Keys

The value 32 (=Fixed Position) can be added to these values (specify total).
In this case, the position of the keyboard is not changed when a switch is
made to the next keyboard (see VK_KB_SWITCHNEXT). Otherwise, the
newly activated keyboard by default is displayed with the same position
code as the previous one.
ShowTitle=0
• 1 = Show title bar of the keyboard window
• 0 = Do not show title bar
In the title bar, the name of the software keyboard, which was specified for
Keyboard_xxx in the section designation, is also displayed.
It is recommended, however, not to show the title bar. With the title bar
shown, the software keyboard can gain focus if you click the title bar - the
current input window would lose focus.
ShowTaskWin=0
• 1 = Show in the taskbar
• 0 = Do not show
Here, you can make the individual software keyboard windows visible in
the taskbar and in task switching with ALT-TAB.
Background=R,G,B
Definition of the window background with RGB values; this entry has pri-
ority over the Pattern specification.
