Keyboard shortcuts
NOTE:
Keyboard characters may differ depending on the keyboard language configuration. Keys that are used for shortcuts
remain the same across all language configurations.
Some keys on your keyboard have two symbols on them. These keys can be used to type alternate characters or to perform
secondary functions. The symbol that is shown on the lower part of the key sees the character that is typed out when the key is
pressed. If you press shift and the key, the symbol that is shown on the upper part of the key is typed out. For example, if you
press
2
,
2
is typed out; if you press
Shift
+
2
,
@
is typed out.
The primary behavior is the media keys, and the secondary behavior is the F1-F12 keys.
Function (Fn) lock only switches between primary and secondary behavior on F1-F12 keys only.
F9 has the same function as F9 behavior as there is no secondary behavior.
