Function/Hot Key Indicators & Control Center
The function/hot key indicators and Control Center function in the same manner as outlined for Windows 7 (ex-
cept for the Mute, Volume and Brightness indicators which use the standard Windows 8 indicators) in “Func-
tion Keys & Visual Indicators” on page 1 - 14 and “Control Center” on page 1 - 15. However both of these
functions work under the Desktop app (see “Desktop Application” on page F - 4) and not under the Start screen,
and the Control Center does not feature the wireless/Bluetooth buttons and Airplane Mode.
