| + | === Shift modes === | ||
| + | The left or right shift modes can be activated with a single press of the corresponding shift key. An annunciator at the top of the screen will confirm the shift mode is activated. Pressing the shift key again will deactivate the shift mode without taking any action. Any other key pressed while in shift mode will perform a shifted function. If the shift key is pressed and held while pressing another key, a shift-hold function will be activated. Many keys have the shift-hold function and shift functions defined the same (for fast typing), others have their own specific actions on shift-hold. Shift-hold actions are in general not printed on the keyboard.\\ | ||
| + | The shift mode will end automatically after an action has been taken, be it shift-hold or simply a shifted action. | ||
