User's Guide

What if the program I’m using requires a mouse point-and-click response?
1. Create a key on an overlay.
2. Display the Key Content tab of the Properties of Key dialog box. (Double-clicking a
selected key is one way to display this dialog box.)
3. Enter the keyboard shortcut as the key content. Use the available Key Actions (add an
action from the Mouse Actions category listings).
When the IntelliKeys user presses this key, the corresponding mouse command is sent to
the computer—simulating the use of a standard mouse. For example [Button Click] sends
a mouse click to the computer.
IntelliTools Classroom Suite’s Make Overlay feature automatically creates overlay keys that
enable an IntelliKeys user to access on-screen buttons. For example [Function Key 12]next
page[Enter][Non Repeating] will activate a button named Next Page.
How do I make an overlay so that an IntelliKeys user can interact with switch
accessible programs?
1. Determine what standard keyboard or standard mouse input a switch accessible
program responds to by referring to that program’s User’s Guide (Tip: Search for the
topic “Setting up Switches.”)
2. Edit the overlay’s switch content to select the desired input.
For instance, to have a switch send a mouse click, set the IntelliKeys switch #1 Switch
Content to [Button Click]. Or if the automatic scan keyboard shortcut is Control+Enter,
set the IntelliKeys switch #1 Switch Content to [Control][Enter].
