Tablet Fitaly 5 Macros
Contents:
With slides and glossary expansions, Fitaly gives you more than just a
keyboard and a text expander. The Fitaly Macro language makes it a
smart keyboard that offers you the possibility to have any possible key
and key combination at your fingertip or pentip.
Moreover, it will greatly enhance and accelerate your work on a Tablet
PC. Thanks to the Fitaly macros, actions like copying and pasting or
launching a report or an image can be done with just a slide or an
expansion, and much more.
Special Characters
All characters and keys are available with the Fitaly macro language.
The following special characters and keys can be easily produced with a
slide or an expansion. You just add them as such by tapping on the
Insert Macro -> special character menu in the Fitaly Editor:
- space
- tab
- backspace
- delete
- enter
- escape
- insert
- pause
- print

Fitaly offers full Unicode support. Any unicode character can be
produced with the Fitaly macro language. You can pick any character or
string of characters in the Unicode
Picker by tapping on Insert Macro -> special character
-> unicode.
State Keys
The following keys can be produced with the Fitaly macro language via
the Insert Macro -> state key menu:
- caps
- shift
- control
- alt
- windows

- scroll lock
The Alt key can thus be at your fingertips on any key for which you
define a slide containing
alt. You can also create
slide or glossary entries with combinations of
keys like
control A or
alt tab
(tab being under Insert Macro -> special character).

via
the Insert Macro -> panel key menu:

the Insert Macro -> direction key menu:

slide or glossary entry by tapping on the Insert Macro ->
option key menu and select the size you want to have quick access to.

The Punctuation panel's use is based on the Half-Cell options which
allow you to use punctuation and numbers by tapping the half cells in
which they are showing or to use the full cell option and choose to
obtain punctuation by tapping and digits by sliding or vice versa.
Any of these three options can be inserted as a slide or glossary entry
via
the Insert Macro -> option key menu:

The expander can be switched on or off with a slide using the Specials -> option key menu:
