Best on-screen keyboard utility

**andrel** · 03-08-2007, 10:31 AM

I've been looking for a good, flexible and configurable on-screen keyboard for a long time. This morning, I just stumbled on the best on-screen keyboard software I've ever seen, and .. it's free!!

The software is InScribe, and from Ilium Software.

It is resizeable, have different key entry mode, you can design you own keyboard layouts, you can make it transparent, even click on buttons from your application though it!!

I LOVE IT!

I've always liked the way windows tablet edition handles on screen keyboards, but a bit tiny for in car use... one problem I've found with most osk's is that in some cases they can loose focus on the active typing area.... this is where tablet ed works perfect all the time & even gives a little pop up box whenever you hover over an entry window or something to open a keyboard... best I've seen so far except for the size issues... but gotta check this one out

also, tablet edition keyboard enters text directly into the fields as you type, rather than most others who do more of a cut & paste type action after you type... this can be real helpful in apps that have data lookup as you type, so the first few letters can open what your looking for without having to type the whole thing out...

i always liked the one found on centrafuse, i'd code one myself like that but i only know java so it would be a resource hog for a CarPC and i dont want to get a copyright notice from david like others got from making a skin like his =p

CF FTW! (god i'm a loser =p)
