    Zoom with FN keys or Screen Keyboard?


    Running Easy Canvas on my iPad Pro without a keyboard so just using the On-Screen Keyboard which doesn't show Numpad etc., trying to find the key combination for Zoom in/out? I can also set a shortcut in Easy Canvas but the same problem.Normally it's Ctrl & Numpad +/-, maybe using FN keys?

    :)

    Fn key not working on Microsoft Ergonimic 4000 keyboard

    Hi Davide,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand your query related to not being able to use Function keys properly on the keyboard. For further clarity on the issue, please respond to the questions below.



    1. Which build version of Windows 10 are you using currently?
    2. Have you tried using the keyboard on any other PC?


    Refer the article Which version of Windows operating system am I running?



    Meanwhile, I would suggest you to try using the on-screen keyboard on Windows 10 and see if the Fn key works. Refer the article

    Use the On-Screen Keyboard (OSK) to type



    You may also want to check if the F Lock key is toggled on the keyboard. If it is On then try switching it Off and see if the Fn key works.



    In addition, you can refer the section Special keys on the keyboard aren't functioning
    from the article
    Troubleshoot problems with your Microsoft mouse or keyboard



    Let us know how it goes.



    Regards,

    FN key always on

    To clarify, I was saying "Accessibility" features maybe be controlled via the BIOS, not the Fn keys. And one of the Accessibility features makes the keys "sticky". This allows folks with some disabilities to press, for example, the Ctrl key, then the Alt key, and then Del in sequence instead of all at once. Same with the Fn key. The sticky feature would let you first press the Fn key, and then the F9 key (for example) and not Fn + F9 at the same time to enable/disable whatever Fn + F9 does with that notebook (it is the touchpad on my Toshiba).

    Zoom with FN keys or Screen Keyboard?

    FN key always on

    Fn key got absolutely nothing to do with BIOS.

    It just requires some bizarre combination. One of this should do the trick:

    fn + scrl
    fn+ num
    fn + F11
    fn + F8
