Using the Fn Key Sequentially
Many commands are entered by simultaneously pressing the
Fn key and another key. For example, hotkey commands are
entered by pressing
Fn + a function key.
If you enable sequential Fn commands, all commands that can be
entered by simultaneously pressing the
Fn key and another key
can also be entered by sequentially pressing
Fn and the desired
function key.
While this feature is enabled:
■ Whenever you press the Fn key, the notebook beeps to
indicate that the next key you press will be interpreted as the
other key of an
Fn command.
■ Fn commands can still be entered by simultaneously pressing
the
Fn key and the other key of the Fn command.
To enable the sequential feature, press the Fn key 5 times. A beep
confirms that the feature is enabled. The feature remains enabled
until you disable it.
To disable this feature, press the Fn key 5 times. No beep sounds,
indicating that the feature has been disabled.
