Activating Modifier Keys & The Shift-State Indicator Icon

3.5.3.1Activating Modifier Keys & The Shift-State Indicator Icon

When a modifier key is pressed, it is represented in the shift-state indicator icon in the softkey bar at the bottom of the screen, making it easier to determine whether or not a modifier key is active. If the shift-state indicator icon is not visible (you can only see the soft keyboard icon), you may need to take a few steps to display the shift-state indicator icon.

Tap on Start>Settings followed by the Buttons icon.

Tap on the One Shots tab at the bottom of the screen.

Tap in the check box next to Show modifier key state to display the shift-state indicator icon.

3.5.3.2Locking Modifier Keys

Note: The locking behaviour of the modifier keys can be changed so that, for example, pressing a modifier key once will lock the key ‘on’. Refer to “One Shots” on page 104 for details. Note too that by default, the [ORANGE] key is locked ‘on’ when pressed only once.

When a modifier key is locked ‘on’, it will remain active until it is pressed again to unlock or turn it off.
