Further settings are offered under Windows XP. Among other things you can also
arrange this display as an Input language bar independently of the task bar, for
example at the top edge of the screen.
Keyboard layout specific to input window
The Windows operating system will memorize the current keyboard layout for each
input window.
• The keyboard layout is switched automatically if you switch to another
window.
A new window is always started with the default setting. After starting Word,
you may have to reselect the keyboard layout.
• Enable the window in which you want to enter texts before you select the
keyboard settings for this window.
Menu operation
All menus in the active program will also use the changed keyboard layout. You will
possibly no longer find certain key combinations with ALT and the letter key or Ctrl
with a letter key or even initiate a wrong command by mistake. You should
therefore use the mouse or, in menus, the arrow keys.
Other information
If you do not want to switch back to the other keyboard layout quite as frequently,
you can also declare the new combination with the special keyboard layout as the
default target language in the "Keyboard Properties" (Windows 2000/ 2003) or
"Text Services and Input Languages" (Windows XP) dialog box:
Windows 2000/ 2003:
Select the new entry and click on the button "Set as default".
The default setting is indicated with a check mark on the left.
Windows XP:
Select the new setting under "Default Language and Region Support".
Please note that all new windows, the Start menu and the desktop will now also
use the new keyboard layout.
