VAIO® Computer
Key | Description | |||
|
|
|
|
|
Operator keys (Shift, | Several keys are always used with at least one other key: | |||
Ctrl, Alt keys) | Ctrl, Alt, and Shift. When held down with another key, | |||
|
|
|
| the Ctrl (Control) and Alt (Alternate) keys offer another |
|
|
|
| way to give commands. For example, in many |
|
|
|
| applications, instead of choosing the Save command from |
|
|
|
| a menu, you can hold down Ctrl and press the S key |
|
|
|
| (referred to as Ctrl+S). The Shift key operates the same |
|
|
|
| way as on a typewriter; it is used to produce capital letters |
|
|
|
| or special symbols, such as @ and $. |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
| Windows® Start menu; it’s the equivalent of clicking the |
|
|
|
| Start button on the taskbar. See “Combinations and |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| functions with the Windows key” for more information. |

Fn key | The Fn key is used in combination with other keys to | |||
|
|
|
| issue commands. The Fn keys at the left and right sides |
|
|
|
| both work the same. See “Combinations and functions |
|
|
|
| with the Fn key” for more information. |
|
|
|
|
|
Applications key | The Applications key displays a shortcut menu of | |||
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
| equivalent of clicking the right mouse button. |
