Select & Hold by the keyboard?

I like to emulate the stylus select and hold with the device keyboard. How can I do it?

I don't know about the keyboard, but you can assign a hardware key to show the context menu, or use VJKeyPress I think.

how about "Fn + Space" ??
Is there Fn key on Wizard?
buzz

there isn't an "FN" key but there is a key with a dot on it that works as an "FN" key would. And i just tried it and space, along with enter and ok and no luck.

I'm the only one that like to open the context menu with the device keyborad? :lol:

I hold the central button of the d-pad to do that.
Not so far the keyboard...

[Q] A500 keyboard question

How do you set caps lock on the Acer A500 keyboard? I use that feature a lot and as it is I have to hold down the shift key for each capital letter. Most keyboards have a caps lock. Anyone found the key to this minor problem????

Just double tab the shift key

Thanks a lot. I had tried to double tap but evidently I did not make good on my second tap. It does work and thanks again.

[Q] How to change the input method with keyboard

Dose anyone know how to change the input method with keyboard? Thanks a lot

If you want to use the alternate character for the key you can long press the individual key, press fn for a single use or long press fn for a locked position. The up arrow works the exact same way for capitalization. The ae key brings up the special characters for the entered letter and the smiley face is the emoticon button. The sym key brings up the onscreen keyboard symbols and don't forget to use the .com button while browsing.
Take a look at page 17 of the user manual and it explains things pretty well.
Also note that if you enter the people, messaging, email and search and a couple other things with the keyboard closed you can slide the keyboard open after entering and it will place you in the text field ready to type without an extra screen press. This is a very good keyboard if you get used to it.

[Q] What keys do the joypad buttons correspond to?

What keys on the keyboard do each of the hardware joypad keys correspond to? Are Up/Down/Left/Right Up/Down/Left/Right on the keyboard? What are the triangle/square/etc keys?

Correct for u/d/l/r.
X is confirm, like you tap highlighted item.
Circle is back.
Triangle and square doesn't do anything in UI.

Keeping alt and Shift key pressed on custom physical keyboard

I use Parboti Keyboard and/or MultiLing O Keyboard to type Bangla. As we have more letters than 26 we need to often press the shift key to type those letters. When I select Blackberry Keyboard (English) and slide open the physical keyboard, I don't have to press Shift and 'a' at the same time to get A. It is as if the Shift key is kept pressed once I press it. I want the same effect on my custome keyboard layout on Parboti or Multiling.
Please guide me someone. Thanks.
