Tip: You can place a one-click show/hide button for the on-screen keyboard on the Windows taskbar. Open the program’s installation folder, find the bundled utility ToggleKeyboard.exe, and pin it to the taskbar (right-click the file or its Start-menu shortcut "Show or hide the on-screen keyboard" and choose Pin to taskbar). Clicking the pinned icon afterwards will show the on-screen keyboard if it is hidden, or hide it if it is currently visible - without opening the main program window.
