    Designer Desktop Keyboard layout

    My new Designer Desktop keyboard types § instead of backslash (I can't find what key backslash is mapped to), and ± instead of pipe.

    I'm primarily using it with an iPad air, and changing the language settings and hardware keyboard layout doesn't seem to make a difference (although when I choose the French or German layouts, the letter keys do change).

    Any thoughts on how I can find pipe?

    Thanks
