EMD Software’s EMDVirtualKeyboard is
an ActiveX Control that is ideal for
Visual Basic application developers planning to provide touch
screen or keyboardless functionality and requiring a flexible
means of providing user keyboard input, function keys, or
calculator functionality.
The EMDVirtualKeyboard Control was designed for industrial
applications and enables developers to build innovative and
creative keyboard designs with non-rectangular windows and
transparent backgrounds.
The EMDVirtualKeyboard can be applied
applications such as:
- Industrial Operator/Machine Interface,
- Point of Sale Applications, and
- Information Kiosks.
EMD Virtual Keyboard
functionality
The EMD Virtual Keyboard control simulates
an actual keyboard and was designed to be used with touch
screen or keyboardless applications. The EMDVBoardDlg control
provides a complete set of keyset objects that invoke:
- A 103 key QWERTY keyboard,
- Standard keyboard,
- Function keys,
- Arrow keys,
- Numeric keypad,
- Modal or modeless calculator
You use the EMDVBoardDlg control in your application
by adding it to a form and setting its properties. The dialog
displayed by the control is determined by the methods of the
control. At run time, a dialog box is displayed when the appropriate
method is invoked; at design time, the EMDVBoardDlg control
is displayed as an icon on a form.
