Type without keyboard in windows using On-Screen Keyboard

some times we will need to type without keyboard. The windows XP OS provides a way for it.

we can use On-Screen Keyboard provided by windows.

You can find the on-screen board in windows xp at the following path

Programs -> Accessories -> Accessibility -> On-screen keyboard

The Windows XP on-screen keyboard includes a mouse dwell feature to help people who struggle with single mouse clicks. Rather than having to click on each key to produce a letter, an option can be set that allows you to simply hover the pointer over a key for a determinable amount of time.

To enable Dwell Delay select "Typing Mode" from the OSK's 'Settings' menu.


By default the program uses 'Click to select'. Change this to 'Hover to select' and then choose an appropriate 'Minimum time to hover' or as we know it in this industry, the 'dwell delay'.


Setting too short a time might mean that your user selects keys inadvertently as he or she is attempting to target the correct letter. Setting too long a time would mean it takes longer to produce text, and it means that they have to be able to hold their pointer steady for longer.


Click OK to return to the main OSK screen. Notice that when you hover over a letter a visual cue indicates how long the pointer needs to be held there. This is a very useful feature as it makes it clear that dwell delay is enabled and how long one has to wait each time before the key is activated.
