Hello

i have a MSI AE 1900 and I want to use it without a keyboard. So I read alot about "exec onboard&" and that works fine but it is always on the screen!

How can I make it just appearing when trying to type something in a field like on an ipod. There the keyboard just appears, when I click on a field where I can type something...

I found a way, but this is not directly wht I was lookin for.

You can open this programm "onboard" with easystroke by geastures on the screen. This is fine so far, but not as easy on the ipod. Is there another aproach available?

How could I close the open "onboard" programm again with easystroke?

You could assign a gesture to alt+f4 my gesture is and upside down U . I use it to close all of my programs.
