Author Topic: Keys you never use?  (Read 6912 times)

Tab, Caps lock, Fn, any keys F1-F12, Scroll Lock, Insert, Pause/Break, Home, End, Delete, Page Up, Page Down, and none of the number pad.

Excluding Blockland keybinds.

pause/break because while i don't intentionally use keys like numlock and the start/home key either, it's the only one that i dont always accidentally press

Pageup, and pagedown... Because I don't have them
Scroll lock, pause, break and 'sys rg' <-- Wtf is this?

Arrow keys. Who even uses them? What are they for?

i dont have pause/break

i use them on imgur to scroll to a different image and scroll down on a tall image

scroll lock, insert, page up and down, end, home, pause.

Function and the button that opens the "computer" window

On an English QWERTY keyboard, since they're slightly differen't from an American version.

(Mine doesn't have the accents for vowels as shown in blue, but has all the other blue things)

A few of the F# keys, depending on particular programs.
Caps Lock isn't often used for actually entering in capital letters. I often re-bind it in games.
The Insert, Home, and End keys are never used.
The Pause/Break key is never used.
I pretty much never use Alt Graphics.
I never use the right Windows Key.
I never use the Menu key.
I almost never use the key above Tab, as I have no idea what the characters are actually used for. [ `¬¦ ]
Normally I don't use the Numpad for anything, other than sometimes quickly entering in numbers for passwords and similar things, so all of those are left alone.
I never use the Scroll Lock.


oh yeah speaking of keyboard layouts

this is what mine is
