The Key Mappings property sheet is used to map BlueZone program functions to key sequences on the keyboard.
From the BlueZone MenuBar select Options: Keyboard or press the Keyboard icon found on the BlueZone ToolBar. The Key Mappings property sheet will display a bitmap image of a keyboard.
STEP-BY-STEP How to Map a Key
Here is an example of the BlueZone ICL Keyboard bitmap image.
Gray keys can be mapped. If you place the mouse pointer over a gray key and left click, a light yellow box will appear with the mappings of that particular key and also any combination key mappings that this key is used in.
The following illustration shows all Key Mappings associated with the R key.
Red keys cannot be used to map ICL Functions. The red keys are the Caps Lock and Print Screen keys.
Yellow keys are caution keys. Care should be taken when using the yellow keys to map ICL Functions. The caution keys include the Alt keys and the Esc key. Windows uses the Alt keys with menu accelerators and the Esc key is the default BlueZone Full Screen Hotkey key.
