The Virtual Keyboard is an on-screen substitute for the physical keyboard attached to the PC supporting Meeting Suite. It enables you to
do anything in Interactive Mode that you can do from the physical keyboard. The Virtual Keyboard is convenient because you can "type"
while keeping your focus on the MeetingBoard. Additionally, the Virtual Keyboard lets MeetingPad users "type" from anywhere in the
room.
Tip: The Virtual Keyboard works with any program, not just InterWrite. After opening the Virtual Keyboard, switch to another
program and "type" using the Virtual Keyboard to enter text and keyboard shortcuts.
