Keyboard assignment specific to input window
The Windows operating system will memorize the current keyboard assignment for each
input window.
• The keyboard assignment is switched automatically if you switch to another window.
• Enable the window in which you want to input texts before you select the keyboard
Menu operation
All menus in the active program will also use the changed keyboard assignment. You will
possibly no longer find certain key combinations with Alt and the letter key or Ctrl with a letter
key, or even initiate a wrong command by mistake. You should therefore use the mouse or,
in menus, the arrow keys.
Note
If you do not want to switch back to the other keyboard assignment quite so frequently, you
can also declare the new combination with the special keyboard assignment to be the default
target language in the "Text Services and Input Languages" dialog box by selecting Start
menu "Settings" → "Control Panel" → "Regional and Language Options" → "Languages" tab:
Select the new setting under "Default Language and Region Support".
Please note that all new windows, the Start menu and the desktop will now also use the new
keyboard assignment.
