User-definable Keys

An Oska Keyboard can have buttons that are user-definable. You can then right-click on a button and the "Edit Key" option will be shown:

Select "Edit Key" and you will be able to edit what the button does when it is pressed:

Text & Picture

Enter the text to be displayed on the button into the textbox. Click on the image to the right to bring up a File dialog and use that to select the image displayed on the button.

Text to Insert

Enter the output of the button - what is typed when the button is pressed. So if "Text to Insert" contains "Alasdair" then when the button is pressed "Alasdair" will be typed. You can use any of the codes from the Insert section of the Oska Editor.

Action

Enter any additional button actions, as defined in the Actions section in the Oska Editor. For example, <Speak:Hello> will cause the word "Hello" to be spoken when the button is pressed.

Note that if the Oska keyboard must be run as an administrator if the keyboard files are located in Program Files and you want the changes to be saved.
