Hidden keyboard characters. The fastest way to type characters that aren't on your keyboard
The keyboard with which we type text has quite a few keys. And each of them is needed for something. In this lesson we will talk about their purpose and learn how to use them correctly.
Here is a photo of a regular computer keyboard:
Keyboard button meanings
Esc. The full name of this key is Escape (pronounced "Escape") and it means "Exit". Using it we can close some programs. This applies to a greater extent to computer games.
F1-F12. In the same row as Esc there are several buttons whose names begin with Latin letter F. They are designed to control the computer without the help of a mouse - only with the keyboard. Thanks to them, you can open and close folders and files, change their names, copy and much more.
But knowing the meaning of each of these buttons is completely unnecessary - most people have been using computers for decades and have no idea about any of them.
Immediately below the F1-F12 keys there is a row of buttons with numbers and signs (! " " No.; % : ? *, etc.).
If you simply click on one of them, the drawn number will be printed. But to print a sign, press the Shift button along with it (bottom left or right).
If the character printed is not the one you need, try changing the language (bottom right of the screen) -
By the way, on many keyboards the numbers are also on the right side. The photo shows this part separately.
They are laid out exactly like on a calculator and are more convenient for many people.
But sometimes these numbers don’t work. You click on the desired key, but nothing is printed. This means that the numeric portion of the keyboard is turned off. To turn it on, simply press the Num Lock button once.
The most an important part keyboards are the keys that are used to type text. They are located in the center.
As a rule, each button has two letters - one foreign, the other Russian. To print a letter on required language, make sure it is selected correctly (at the bottom of the computer screen).
You can also change the language in another way - by clicking on two buttons at once: Shift And Alt or Shift And Ctrl
Win. The key that opens the Start button. Most often it is not signed, but simply drawn on it Windows icon. Located between the Ctrl and Alt buttons.
Fn. The laptop has this key - as a rule, it is not found on regular keyboards. It is designed to work with special functions - increasing/decreasing brightness, volume and others.
To turn them on, you need to press the Fn key and, while holding it, press the button with necessary function. These buttons are usually located at the top - at F1-F10.
Let's say I need to increase the brightness of my laptop screen. To do this, I look for a button on the keyboard with the corresponding picture. For example, I have F6 - there is a sun drawn on it. So, I hold down the Fn key and then press F6. The screen becomes a little brighter. To increase the brightness even more, I press F6 again along with Fn.
How to print a capital letter
To print one capital letters(capital) must be held Shift key and together with it click on the desired letter.
How to type a period and a comma
If the Russian alphabet is installed, then in order to print point, you need to press the last key in the bottom letter row (on the right). It is located in front of the Shift button.
To print comma, press the same button while holding Shift.
When the English alphabet is selected, to print a dot you need to press the key that is located before the Russian dot. The letter "Y" is usually written on it. And the comma in the English alphabet is where the Russian letter “B” is (before the English dot).
Text decoration buttons
Tab - creates an indent at the beginning of a sentence. In other words, you can use it to make a paragraph (red line).
To do this, click the mouse at the beginning of the text and press the Tab key once. If the red line is adjusted correctly, the text will move slightly to the right.
Used for printing capital letters. Located under the Tab key.
Press Caps Lock once and let her go. Try typing a word. All letters will be printed in capitals. To cancel this function, press once again on Caps key Lock and release her. Letters, as before, will be printed small.
(space) - makes spaces between words. The longest button on the keyboard is located under the letter keys.
According to the design rules, there should be only one space between words (not three or even two). It is not correct to align or shift text using this key. Also, a space is placed only after a punctuation mark - there should be no space before a space sign (with the exception of a dash).
Delete button. It erases those letters that are printed in front of the flashing stick (cursor). It is located on the right side, immediately after the numbers/signs. Often there is no inscription on it at all, but simply an arrow drawn to the left.
The Backspace button is also used to raise text higher.
Enter - is intended to go to the next line.
Thanks to her, you can omit the text below. Enter is located under the delete text button.
Additional keys
These are keys such as Insert, Home, Page Up and Page Down, arrow buttons and others. They are located between the alphabetic and numeric keyboards. Used to work with text without using the mouse.
You can use the arrows to move the blinking cursor (flashing stick) across the text.
Delete is used to delete. True, unlike the Backspace key, it deletes letters not before, but after the blinking cursor.
The Home button moves the blinking cursor to the beginning of the line, and the End button moves it to the end.
Page Up moves the blinking cursor to the beginning of the page, and Page Down (Pg Dn) moves the blinking cursor to the end of the page.
The Insert button is needed to print text over existing text. If you click on it, new text will be printed, erasing the old one. To cancel this, you need to press the Insert key again.
Key Scroll Lock almost always completely useless - it simply doesn’t work. And in theory it should serve to scroll text up and down - just like the wheel on a computer mouse does.
Pause/Break almost never works either. In general, it is designed to suspend an ongoing computer process.
All of these buttons are optional and are rarely or never used by people.
But the button can be very useful.
She takes a photo of the screen. This image can then be inserted into Word program or Paint. On computer language This photograph of the screen is called a screenshot.
Keyboard buttons to remember
— if you press this button and, without releasing it, press another key with a letter, the letter will be printed in capital. In the same way, you can print a symbol instead of a number: No! () * ? « + etc.
— after pressing this button once, all letters will be printed in capital letters. You don't need to hold it for this. To return to printing in small letters, press Caps Lock again.
— indents (red line).
- space. Using this button you can add space between words.
- drops to a line below. To do this, you need to place a flashing stick (blinking cursor) at the beginning of the part of the text that you want to move down, and press the Enter button.
— deletes the character before the blinking cursor. In other words, it erases text. This button also moves the text up a line. To do this, you need to place a flashing stick (blinking cursor) at the beginning of the part of the text that you want to move to the top, and press Backspace.
All other keyboard buttons, except letters, numbers and symbols, are used extremely rarely or not at all.
No computer or laptop user can do without alphabetic characters on the keyboard, entered using the appropriate keys. Almost every key has 2 letters - English at the top and Russian at the bottom, i.e. The keyboard has 26 letters of the English alphabet and 33 letters of the Russian alphabet. Moreover, these can be both lowercase and uppercase letters, which are typed using the Shift key.
There are punctuation marks in both English and Russian layouts, although they are located in different places on the keyboard. It is convenient when working with Russian text that a period and a comma are the same key, which is located in the bottom row of the most recent letter keys. Only the comma is typed in combination with the Shift key. And in English layout The dot is the key with the Russian letter Y, and the comma is B. So to enter these punctuation marks, you do not need to switch from one font to another.
We use digital signs or numbers not only for calculations, but also in text to indicate various numerical data. In this case, you can use it as an upper digital side by side keyboards and additional digital block(small numeric keypad) located on the right side of the keyboard.
Basic signs of arithmetic operations (plus “+”, minus “-”, multiplication “*”, division “/”), located on the small numeric keypad by analogy with a familiar calculator, so they are convenient to use when making calculations. But if you just need to print the equal sign “=”, and not find out the result of the calculations, then you will not find such a sign there. It is located in the top number row after the number 0, one key later.
What frequently used characters are on the keyboard?
If you look closely at the keyboard, you can see that many characters are hidden in the number row and on the right side of the letter rows, the last keys. To enter characters instead of letters or numbers when printing, you need to switch to upper case using the Shift key.
If you go in order, starting with the number 1, then in this way when printing Russian texts you enter:
1) Exclamation point «!»;
2) opening and closing quotation marks at the beginning and end of the phrase “...”;
3) then, if necessary, the number sign “No”;
4) semicolon “;”;
5) "%";
6) colon “:”;
7) question mark «?»;
8) the asterisk “*”, which is also used as a multiplication sign in computer calculations;
9) round opening “(”;
10) round closing bracket “)” on the key with the number 0;
11) hyphen and “-” sign – in computer version look the same. The dash (longer) appears automatically using spaces before and after it in text programs or entered using a special code.
12) the = sign and the + sign in upper case, i.e. in combination with the Shift key.
It is noteworthy that the exclamation point, %, *, parentheses are found in both Russian and English keyboard layouts on the same keys.
But some characters exist only in the English layout. For example, square […] and curly (…) brackets, which are located on keys with the Russian letters X (opening) and Ъ (closing), “>” (key with the Russian letter Yu) and less “Rarely used characters on the keyboard
IN Everyday life to the average user You rarely have to use characters that exist only in the English layout: different variants quotation marks “…”, ‘…’, `…`, dash “|”, forward “/” and backslash “\”, tilde “~”. But the paragraph sign “§” or the degree “°” would be nice , but they are not on the keyboard. You have to enter some characters into the text in a different way.
Many have seen unusual and beautiful symbols, gracing a name, post or social media page, but few know where they come from.
IN operating system Windows symbols, which are not on the keyboard, are encrypted as numbers. Pressing a number in combination with the Alt key produces a special character that will change depending on the number.
Inserting hidden characters
Many people ask the question: “How to enter characters that are not on the keyboard?” This can be done different ways:
- using a symbol table;
- combinations of Alt with numbers;
- copying from the Internet;
- copying from text editing software ( Microsoft Office);
- special online services.
symbol table
Above is a table of symbols that are not on the keyboard. With its help, you can easily insert the symbol you like into the text and copy it to social networks.
How to open a symbol table
Opening a symbol table is very simple. The first thing you need to do is click “Start” and enter the phrase “Symbol table” in the computer search window.
Next step: click on the found phrase.
The symbol table can be easily found by knowing its location in the system. The path is as follows:
- "Start".
- All programs.
- Standard.
- Service.
- Symbol table.
In order not to constantly perform many operations and mouse clicks, you can pin the link to the table on the “Taskbar” or in the “Start” menu. This is done like this: hover the cursor over the icon of the open program on the lower taskbar, press the right mouse button to open additional functions, then with the left mouse button you need to click on the penultimate line (pin the program).
Using the symbol table
In the table you can change the font, view help, and also copy any of the presented characters to the clipboard. To copy them, double-click on the one you like and click on the “Copy” button. To insert into text, you need to place the cursor in the part of the text in which you want to place the element, click on the "Insert" menu, called up with the right mouse button. Or do the same using Ctrl and V.
Additional Symbol Table Options
The functionality of the program in question contains additional parameters, to enable which you need to check the appropriate box. The checkbox is located under the "For copying" line. Main advantage additional parameters is the presence of a "Group". It allows you to search very quickly necessary element for inserting into text by category (monetary, punctuation, arrows, numeric, technical). For proper operation groupings should be Unicode ranges.
For example, you can take the infinity sign. To find it, you need to go to the group and select the desired category(for the infinity sign these are mathematical operators). Click on it double click and copy it to the clipboard.
Alt key and number combinations
In order for the symbol you need to appear on the screen, you need to click on the indicated number while holding down Alt. In order not to lose such a useful table, it is recommended to add it to your browser bookmarks or save it to your computer. For example, the combination of Alt and 1 produces the smiley symbol.
Copying from the Web
A very popular way to obtain the necessary characters that are not on the keyboard is to copy them from the Internet. This method is very simple and understandable for everyone, it consists of 2 steps:
- finding the desired symbol or smiley by creating a request in search bar browser;
- copy and paste to the desired location (text, message, status).
Symbols from Microsoft Office Word
You can find original symbols that are not on the keyboard in the very popular software from Microsoft Office Word. This method is similar to that described earlier. Its essence lies in the fact that first we open the Word program (it is installed on almost every computer), look for the “Insert” tab, and in the menu we find the “Insert Symbol” button. After this, a window appears with a huge number of various characters. In order to take a character you like from Word and paste it somewhere else, you need to paste the required character into blank sheet"Word", then select it and copy (copying can be done using the combination Ctrl keys and C).
Online services
Online services that provide the ability to quickly and conveniently select and copy your favorite symbol, emoticon or sign will help you diversify your page on VKontakte, tweets and posts on Facebook, and simply please your chat interlocutor.
Everything here is very simple and clear. Each button is a specific symbol. After clicking on any of them, the selected symbol appears in the window at the top. Below the window there are buttons with which you can change characters (font, size) or perform some action (copy, tweet, etc.). When you click Copy, the character(s) in the selection window are copied to your computer's clipboard. Only then does the user insert them into the message from the buffer.
Categories of hidden characters
All existing symbols that are not on the keyboard can be divided into the following categories:
- numbers;
- fractions;
- Zodiac signs;
- musical notes;
- symbols representing weather or precipitation;
- card;
- chess;
- snowflakes;
- flowers;
- emotions;
- arrows;
- others.
Working on something new culinary recipe or making angular calculations in simple text editor, like standard notepad, the user may encounter quite logical question: how to put, for example, a degree sign, which, apparently, is not included in the standard layout? To solve this issue, use special third party programs not necessary at all. The QWERTY layout hides several tricks that are not written about in the operating instructions.
Where did the rest of the symbols go?
The existing sequence of letters and numbers on the keyboard was invented at the end of the century before last and still remains almost unchanged. Over the years, humanity has not invented anything radically new in this area. The question arises: why not come up with a new layout that would include more values?
Obviously, it will be quite problematic to place everything special signs on a regular keyboard, taking them into account great amount. However, to solve this problem, the developers came up with several simple ways, that allow expand the set printable characters. Who can benefit from this log?
- To the people those involved in programming. Standard layout provides a sufficient set for special languages that are used in this area (|, \, &, etc.). However, the HTML programmer often requires additional values that are not provided by regular keyboard(for example, © is an icon indicating Copyright).
- For employees office sector. Some computational operations or to indicate a special mathematical operation also require their own icon (± - plus/minus sign).
- Ordinary users. It is unlikely that there are people left who would not be interested in how to print a “heart” or a cheerful emoticon☺.
Working with special characters
HTML special characters are mostly used in the field of programming. To display them correctly, it is advisable to choose the following standard fonts, like Arial or Times New Roman. This typology includes arithmetic signs, currency symbols, markers, arrows, Greek alphabet, etc. To display desired icon, use the specialized codes given in the table. Please note that all combinations are written in lowercase.
Alt codes
Another way to type a special character is to use alt codes. This method does not require auxiliary systems. To use it, need to be clamped alt button on the keyboard and sequentially enter the special digital combination, which will insert the required icon into the text.
As an example, here are a few alt codes. Hold alt and enter:
- 8776 – approximately or approximately equal to (≈);
- 197 – cross (┼)
- 0134 – cross (†)
- 24, 25, 26, 27 – arrows up, down, right and left (,↓,→,←)
- 7 — Bold dot ( )
- 42 – Asterisk (*)
- 1, 2 – Emoticons (☺, ☻)
- 0216 – Diameter (Ø). Enters in English layout.
- 255 – Empty character (). Not to be confused with space.
- 0176, 248 – Degrees (°)
- 8381 and 01364 – Ruble sign (₽, Ք)
- 0128 and 0136 – Euro (€). The code depends on the layout - the first is for English, the second is for Russian
- 9742, 9743 – Telephone (☎, ☏)
- 10122 – 10131 – numbers from 1 to 10 in a black circle (➊ – ➓)
- 10112 – 10121 – numbers from 1 to 10 in a white circle (➀ – ➉)
- 0177 – plus or minus (±)
- 8734 – infinity (∞)
- 960 – Pi icon (π)
- 0216 – crossed out O (Ø). In English layout
You can also use the table to find the desired value.
operating room Windows system provides a special built-in program with which you can display characters that are not on the keyboard. To find it on your device, follow any of the following instructions:
This program allows you to see all hidden signs. In order to transfer a character into text, you just need to copy it, for example, using the clipboard or using a special “copy/paste” key combination.
Every computer user, especially those who actively use social networks, wondered: what is Special symbols and where can I find them on the keyboard? The answer to this question is not something complicated. The thing is that the keyboard displays only frequently used symbols: letters, punctuation marks, arithmetic operations.
But there are many other symbols in the world. And to use them, you need to know some concepts. Such characters are called special. Their difference is that they are more comic than truly useful.
How to enter special characters from the keyboard?
First, let’s look at the simplest and most understandable input of special characters that are already located on the device’s keyboard. To do this, hold down the Shift key and select the desired symbol.
But do not forget that for convenience, the symbols are separated from each other by keyboard layouts. Therefore, pay attention to the location of the sign relative to the main one.
We use special characters when creating passwords
Many users have wondered how to create strong password. To do this, you don’t need to create huge sets of different letters, numbers and punctuation marks; just use an unusual icon. So how do you use special characters on your keyboard for a password?
To use a special character when entering a password, you must enable NumLock. After this, you should hold down the Alt key and “+”, then type the required set of characters and get the character we need. But in the password itself it will not be registered as a special character, but will be written in the encoding necessary for this.
Using Unicode on the Windows 10 keyboard
To use special characters on Windows keyboard 10, you need to go to the taskbar and request a table in the search bar. And after that run this application.
In the table that opens, you can select a font. To copy a symbol, double-click on it and click “Copy” in the bottom line. You can also select the character set language.
Enter special characters using the keyboard
The most practical way to type characters is the combination Alt keys and the required Unicode. Special characters on Alt keyboard will be discussed in the table below.
But before you learn about them, you need to understand the principle of entering these characters. To enter the character we need, press the Alt key, then press “+” on the right side of the keyboard and type the numeric command in which the desired character is encrypted.
