FAQ for developers

How can I include the on-screen keyboard into my own installer?


1) Copy the following set of files to the end users’ computers:

CKeyboard.exe

CKeyboardCm.exe

CKeyboardCm64.exe

CKeyboardH.dll

CKeyboardH64.dll

bass.dll

COptions.exe

Keyboards – the folder containing on-screen keyboards (one text file per keyboard)

Lang – the folder with the application’s interface translated into different languages

Skins – the folder with skin images

Background – (optional) the folder containing images for the keyboard background

Icons – (optional) the folder containing shortcut icons for different applications

Sound – (optional) the folder containing Wav files

CKeyboardDeskBand.dll, CKeyboardDeskBand64.dll – (optional) the DLL files for displaying the application’s toolbar in the taskbar

Common – (optional) the folder containing predefined data on word frequency and word order for the most popular languages

*.dic – Text Suggestions dictionaries. The folder for storing these dictionaries is specified in the Data directory field in the Dictionaries section of the application’s settings. If you prefer, you can move dictionary files to the application installation folder.


2) If you turned on the displaying of the on-screen keyboard prior to the system login:

Backup.ini – the pre-login settings file for the on-screen keyboard (Data folder)

You also need to copy the following four files to the Windows\system32 system folder: runcosk.exe, CsCredentialLogon.dll, CsCredentialLogon64.dll, and cskeyboardlogon.dll


3) To transfer the application’s settings, do the following:

Save the settings to a file. To do that, click the Save to File... button in the Advanced section of the Settings window.

After copying the ini-file to the end user’s computer, start CKeyboard.exe with the /RESTORE parameter.

Command format: CKeyboard.exe /RESTORE "file name"

For example: CKeyboard.exe /RESTORE "C:\Program Files\ComfortKeyboard\Settings.ini"



Can I configure the pre-login on-screen keyboard to be different from the regular one, used after the login?


The settings of the on-screen keyboard for entering the login password are stored in the Backup.ini file, located in the application installation folder (in the Data subfolder). When you change the application’s settings in the Settings window, they are saved in the Backup.ini file (and in the registry).

If you don’t want the Backup.ini file to change, make it “Read-only.”



How can I paint keyboard keys in different colors?


Select the necessary key in the Edit Keyboard Type window, click the Picture / Color... button, and then specify the color for each state in the Color fields.



How can I change keyboard parameters from my program?


Our application’s settings are stored in the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\ComfortSoftware\CKeyboard registry key.

If your software changes any of these settings in the system registry, our application will need to load them again. It can be done by sending a windows message containing the WM_USER + 196 code to our application:

 

WM_CSRELOADOPTIONS = WM_USER + 196;

PostMessage(FindWindow('TFirstForm', 'CKeyboardFirstForm'), WM_CSRELOADOPTIONS, 0, 0);


This command allows you to do the following:

Change the interface language (labels on system keys) according to the current input language
Change the keyboard transparency
Change the keyboard size
Temporarily disable the Show the on-screen keyboard when the text cursor is visible option
Temporarily disable the Text Suggestions feature
Change the limitation on access to our application’s settings without reloading the program


How can I transfer your application’s settings and data to another computer?


Sorry, you cannot do it in one click.

You will have to do the following:

1.Save the general settings: All Settings –> Advanced –> Save to File...
2.Save the keyboard file (the name of the file and its full path can be found in the caption of the Edit Keyboard Type window).
3.Restore all these data on the target computer.


The application doesn’t start and shows an error message each time I try to run it!


1.Our application works on Windows 2000 or above only. Sorry, but Windows 95, Windows 98 and Windows CE are not supported.
2.Maybe some of the application’s components have not been installed. Please try reinstalling the application.
3.Make sure to install the application to the Program Files folder. It’s a security-related requirement for new operating systems.
