Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Hello,

I tried to use the on screen keyboard with the mouse on a non touch monitor.

With GUI CURSOR ON and GUI CURSOR LINK MOUSE the mouse cursor is displayed
and can be moved, but how keys of the on screen keyboard can be entered?

Is it possible ?

Enable gui controls and it should work. e.g.
OPTION GUI CONTROLS 10

Note: not sure why I made this a pre-requisite. I'll see if it can be removed
Note also: there is some corruption of the key image if the mouse moves between click and release - I'll fix this in the next beta
