The (now deprecated) $VIRTUALKEYBOARD metacommand did turn the virtual keyboard ON or OFF.


Syntax

$VIRTUALKEYBOARD:ON
$VIRTUALKEYBOARD:OFF


Description

  • This metacommand did not require a comment ' or REM before it. There was no space between the metacommand name, the colon and the ON/OFF parameter.
  • It placed a virtual keyboard on screen, which could be used in touch-enabled devices like Windows tablets.
  • Deprecated, in all current versions of QB64 it just generates a warning now, but has no other effect anymore.


Examples

$VIRTUALKEYBOARD:ON

DO: LOOP UNTIL INKEY$ = CHR$(27)
