Now you can use both keyboards – the computer’s and the card’s.
A fraction:
- Type / first, on either keyboard – the computer’s or the card’s.
- An empty fraction appears, with the cursor in its numerator.
- Type the numerator.
- ↓ takes the cursor down to the denominator.
- → takes the cursor out of the fraction.
- Without it, what you type next goes into the denominator too.
- ⌫ (Backspace) erases what is before the cursor.
Notes for expanding a fraction:
- ↑ takes the cursor to the numerator; ↑ again writes a note over the fraction.
- ↓ goes the same way down: the denominator, then a note under it.
A power:
- ^ (Shift + 6) takes the cursor up, to the exponent.
- ↓ brings it back down.
- Times: * (Shift + 8) writes , the same as . On the simple keypad x writes too.
- Divided by: : (Shift + ;).
- More keys adds the tabs abc (letters, for algebra) and f(x) (roots, π, trigonometry).
- Fewer keys brings the simple keypad back.
- The card keeps your choice, on every page.
