Configuring Your Keyboard and Attaching to a Screen with eXpress
Sometimes it is convenient to change certain eXpress keyboard
settings to be more compatible with the way you use other software.
For instance, UTS users might want to switch the default
Cursor-to-Home and Cursor-to-Start-Line to behave more like Windows.
It might also be beneficial to link this change to a particular
screen but not others. To begin the switch, click the Configure
button on the eXpress Control Panel and click the desired
screen tab (e.g., Screen 4). Next, select the Appearance
and Keyboard tab and click the Custom Keyboard button.
Click the New Keyboard button and give it a name. You will
be asked to verify if this is to be a copy.
In the Key Actions list box, scroll down until you see the
desired Key Function. In this instance, we are looking for CURSOR TO
HOME and CURSOR TO START LINE.
Since we are making a switch, we must first "undefine" one of the
two keys. Select CURSOR TO HOME with the mouse and click the
Undefine Key button. Next, select CURSOR TO START LINE and click
the Type a Key Sequence button. Press the Home key
when you see the "Please press the desired key sequence now" message
box. Click the Yes button at the next prompt followed by the
Redefine button.
Complete the switch by selecting CURSOR TO HOME, click the
Type a Key Sequence button, press Ctrl+Home, Yes and
OK.
Finally, select the new keyboard name from the Select Custom
Keyboard Layout drop-down list box. You're done. The keys are
switched and assigned to the screen. OK out of the configuration
process and check you key switch out.
