## Switching Between Keyboards
|
|
To switch keyboards, follow these steps:
|
|
|
|
Step 1)
|
|
With the keyboard visible, press and release the globe key:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If only one Keyman keyboard is installed, a short press on the globe key will bring up a list of all currently installed languages. Otherwise a short press on the globe key will switch to the next language/keyboard.
|
|
|
|
A long press on the globe key will bring up a list of all currently installed languages (the default is **English EuroLatin (SIL)**).
|
|
|
|
If you have already downloaded additional languages, they will appear here.
|
|
Simply select them and the keyboard will re-appear with the new language.
|
|
|
|
## Hotkey
|
|
To switch between languages while using an external keyboard (i.e. a bluetooth keyboard), a quick and easy way is to
|
|
use a hotkey combination. Press and hold <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> and then press <kbd>Tab</kbd>.
|
|
You should then see the same listing of languages/keyboards. Tap on any available language of your choice.
|
|
|
|
### Alternate Step for System Keyboard
|
|
|
|
The Keyman system keyboard has an additional **NEXT INPUT METHOD** button at the bottom left of
|
|
the keyboard picker menu. Pushing this button will close Keyman and switch to the next non-Keyman system keyboard.
