Quick typing of commands on the keyboard. All keyboard functions. You need to know this

Some tips on using the keyboard were given in the article. Let's look at the meaning of some keys on the keyboard. In the upper right corner of the keyboard with the 101st key there are three indicator lights (in other words, light bulbs):

• Caps Lock– capital letters mode,
• Num Lock – number locking mode,
• Scroll Lock– scroll lock mode.

The above modes are turned on and off by pressing the keys of the same name: Caps Lock, Num Lock (Num Lk), Scroll Lock (Scr Lk).

On laptops with fewer keys, the Caps Lock key is located in the same place as on a 101-key keyboard. The Num Lock key is usually located with F11, and the Scroll Lock key is usually located with F12. To enter Num Lock or Scroll Lock mode, press the Fn key, which is located in the lower left corner, and, without releasing it, press the Num Lock or Scroll Lock key, depending on which mode is required.

Let's take a closer look at these three modes.

1) Key Caps Lock(translated as “fixing capital letters”) is located on the left side of the keyboard. If you do not press Caps Lock (i.e. the light is not on) and go into a text editor (for example, Word or Notepad), then when entering text, all letters (both English and Russian) will be displayed in small letters.

If you press Caps Lock (the light, or rather, the indicator light is on), then when entering text, the letters will be displayed in capitals (capital). In this mode, when you press the Shift key, lowercase (small) letters will be displayed (the exact opposite action of what is done in normal mode when the Caps Lock light is off).

Caps Lock mode (or capital letter mode) is convenient when entering text consisting of such letters. To enter one large letter, it is more convenient, of course, to press the Shift key and, without releasing it, press the key with the image of the corresponding letter.

Key Tab(tab) is located above the Caps Lock key. When editing texts, Tab is usually used to move to the next tab stop, that is, after pressing Tab, the cursor moves immediately to a specified number of positions. In other programs, its functionality may change, for example, Tab can switch between query fields, etc.

Key Esc(Escape – “to run away, escape”) is located above the Tab key and is used mainly to cancel an action.

2) Num Lock key(translated as “fixing numbers”) is located on the right side of the keyboard. It is responsible for the operation of the small numeric keypad in two modes: if the Num Lock indicator is on (i.e., pressed the Num Lock key), then the small numeric keypad operates in the mode of entering numbers from 0 to 9 and periods.

If the Num Lock indicator is not lit, then the small numeric keypad operates in cursor control mode (up, down, right, left arrows, Home, End, PageUp, PageDown). More about the Num Lock key

Key Delete("delete") or Del is usually used to delete characters to the right of the cursor. Key Backspace("step back") or a long left arrow above the Enter key usually deletes the character to the left of the cursor.

I know that some users prefer the Delete key when deleting characters, and some prefer the Backspace key. It's all a matter of habit.

Key Insert("insert") or Ins is typically used to switch between two character input modes:

• input with character expansion (insert mode) and
• input with the replacement of previously typed characters, that is, new text is entered, while the “old” text is automatically erased (replacement mode).

In MS Word 2007, insert/replace mode is disabled by default. Apparently, this was done on purpose, since accidentally pressing the Insert key resulted in more earlier versions Word to the fact that the replacement mode was turned on when old text was removed and a new one was introduced in its place.

To enable insert/replace mode in MS Word 2007, click the Office button (round in the upper left corner). In the window that opens, click the “Word Options” button. Then select the “Advanced” tab, in the “Editing Options” section, check the box next to “Use the INS key to switch insert and replace modes.”

As noted above, the Home, End, PageUp, PageDown, up, down, left and right arrow keys are called cursor keys. Clicking on them, as a rule, leads to moving the cursor in the desired direction or to “flipping through” what is on the screen.

Keystroke Home And End usually moves the cursor to the beginning and end of the line, respectively.

Keystroke PageUp(“page up”) and PageDown(“page down”) causes the contents of the screen to scroll, for example, when editing a document, page up or page down.

3) Scroll Lock(top right on the keyboard) - widely used in the early 80s, when there was no mouse manipulator. When the “Scroll Lock” mode was enabled, the cursor keys performed the function of moving the screen (up, down, left, right).

When the Scroll Lock mode is disabled, then the cursor keys work in the usual mode for us - changing the cursor position (up, down, left, right). Now you can see the effect of this button, for example, in Excel spreadsheets. If you start Excel and press Scroll Lock, then the cursor keys will move the table, not the individual selected cell.

In general, the Scroll Lock key in different programs can work the way it is programmed.

Computer literacy exercises:

1. Enter Russian and english letters when turned on Caps indicator Lock. Repeat the same while holding down the Shift key. Pay attention to which letters are displayed: lowercase or uppercase.
2. Now we print with the Caps Lock indicator turned off. Then we type while holding Shift. When are lowercase and when are uppercase letters entered?
3. Let's look at the Num Lock operating mode. When does the small numeric keypad work in the mode of entering numbers 0, 1, ..., 9 and dots, and when in the cursor control mode?
4. Copy the text of this task into a text editor on your PC, place the cursor in the middle of the text and check how characters are deleted using the Delete and Backspace keys. When are characters deleted to the left of the cursor, and when to the right of it?
5. Try out the Insert key. If you have Word 2007, then you may need to first make the necessary settings to enable this mode. Place the cursor in the middle of the text, click Insert and enter the text. What happens in this case: inserting characters or replacing them (deleting old ones and entering new characters in their place)?
6. You might want to check out the little-used Scroll Lock key. You won't need a mouse here. Let's go to electronic Excel tables, in the middle, enter into the cell, for example, the number 100. Press the Scroll Lock key, and you can use the arrows (up, down, left, right) to move around the table. It turns out to be a keyboard analogue of how a mouse works when moving inside an Excel window.
7. In a text editor, look at the action of the Home, End, up, down, left, right arrow keys within two or three lines, and at the PageUp, PageDown actions within two or more screen pages.
8. Copy a few lines into a text editor. Place the cursor at the beginning of the text and press the Tab key. If everything was done correctly, then the text should start with the “red line”.

P.S. The article is over, but you can still read.

In this lesson I want to tell you about the purpose of keys, when you look at them it is not immediately clear what should happen when you press them. These, of course, are not alphanumeric keys, everything is clear with them - what is drawn will be displayed when pressed. True, on some alphanumeric keys, three characters are drawn, and it is also not immediately clear how to display any of them. I will also tell you in this lesson how, using which keys and in which modes to display each of the symbols drawn on the key.

The same goes for other keys that have several symbols on them. For some special national symbols, you need to switch to the national layout accordingly.

What do the computer keys mean, the purpose of the keys on the keyboard

According to their purpose, the keys
on the keyboard are divided into six groups:

functional;
alphanumeric;
cursor control;
digital panel;
specialized;
modifiers.

Function keys F1 - F12
on a computer keyboard

Functional row of the F1 – F12 key.
Twelve function keys are located
in the very top row of the keyboard.

The purpose of the f1 - f12 keys on a computer keyboard

Function keys also have their own functions on the computer, you can see this in the “User Guide” that comes with each computer.
But besides this - these keys are involved in or they are also called - this is when by pressing one, two or three keys, certain commands are executed for the computer.

For example:
by pressing the F1 key - call up help for that
program that you currently have open.
About “hot keys”, below.

Alphanumeric keys on a keyboard

Alphanumeric keys

Refer to
keys for entering letters, numbers, punctuation marks
and arithmetic operations, special characters.

The keyboard is initially in capital letters. To print capital,
You must first press the Shift key and, while holding it, press the desired letter.

The Shift key can be pressed both on the right and on the left, as you wish
more convenient (although for ten-finger method typescript is
it is important which side you press Shift on).

If you want to print all text in capital letters, then press the key
Caps Lock, you don’t need to hold it, all text will be in capital letters. Return
to normal printing - click on again Caps key Lock.

her, Shift. Or you can simply - by clicking on the button indicating the language at the bottom of the screen -
RU, EN and select.

Number pad keys

Number pad keys

The main purpose of the keys is
duplication of alphanumeric key functions
block in terms of entering numbers and arithmetic operators.

Using the keys on this panel is more convenient for entering numbers and arithmetic operators than entering these characters using the keys in the alphanumeric block.

On some computers, the number pad is located in a separate block,
right, (top image). Sometimes, most often on laptops, the number pad is located on the keys of the alphanumeric block (lower image).
In my opinion, it’s not very convenient, but you probably need to get used to it,
if such a need arises.

Keyboard modifier keys

Modifier keys

Keys: Shift, Ctrl, Caps Lock, Alt and AltGr (right Alt)
belong to the number.

They are designed to change (modify) the actions of other keys.
Modifier keys are the most commonly used, so they have
increased size. In addition, the Shift and Ctrl keys are duplicated
on both sides of the alphanumeric key block.

A space between words also deletes the “selected” object.

Print Screen - prints the contents of the screen -
“photographs” the screen. Then we can paste this screenshot
in Word or Paint. This photograph of the screen is called a “screenshot”.

scroll information up and down, that is, duplicate the wheel
scrolling on a computer mouse, but not on all computers this
the button works.

keys on a website page on the Internet - you can too.

Backspace - removes characters to the left of the flashing one
cursor while typing text. And returns to the previous one
page in browsers and in Explorer windows, replacing the arrow

numeric (numeric) keypad, which is located on the keyboard
either as a separate block, on the right, or in the center, on the keys -
alphanumeric.

Enter – key for entering information, confirms the “yes” command.
For example: you enter some address into the address bar of your browser,
but there is no “find” button there, so we press the key
Enter, thereby giving the command to the browser to find. In search engines
lines, you can also not press “find”, but press Enter.
And when moving to the next line when typing - also,
press Enter.

Cursor keys - (up), (down), (right),
(left). They move only along filled lines. By using
These arrows can be used to move not only through the text you are typing,

What are “hot keys”
(or "hotkeys")

"Hot keys" or " shortcut keys"name the method

commands for the computer or for open on at the moment programs.

First, you should know that the combination “key” + “key” means
that you first need to press the first key, and then, while holding it, the second. Keyboard
when pressing “hot keys” - in Latin (in Cyrillic, some commands call other programs).

Hotkeys sometimes use the Win and Menu keys, and since
on the keyboard there are only icons on them, then the Win key is located between
Ctrl keys and Alt on the left side (it has the Windows logo on it).
Menu key is to the left of the right Ctrl .

Because my site is prepared to help inexperienced user,
then I won’t “burden” you with a lot of existing “hotkeys”,

I work on my own.

In this lesson, you will find the main Windows 7 hotkeys; after reading, you will use your computer much more efficiently than you used it before.

Hotkeys is a method of interaction between the keyboard and the computer. This method consists of executing commands (operations) on a computer using keys or key combinations to which commands (operations) are programmed.

It’s very difficult to get used to something new, so you shouldn’t start memorizing all the keys. To begin with, take 10-20 pieces to use, and then use others, so to speak, expanding your knowledge. It is also worth paying attention to the fact that each program can use its own hot keys, which were programmed by the developers of this program.

If you use Windows 7 hotkeys daily, at least 10 of them, you will notice how much more efficient your work will become. See the list of hotkeys in Windows 7 below.
