ScreenDoors 2000 (PC)
On-Screen Keyboard with Word Prediction
Instead of pushing keys on a real keyboard, simply point and click on a picture of a keyboard on your computer screen. ScreenDoors 2000 acts just like the real keyboard typing directly into any application. A list of predicted words actually guesses what you are typing to help speed entry.
How does it work?
Clicking can be performed a number of different ways. You can select a key by clicking on it using the mouse or a physical switch. You can also select by "dwelling" or simply pausing over a key to make your selection. A visual cue is used to indicate the dwell time, by "filling" up the key. Once the fill reaches the top of the key, a click is automatically performed.
International language keyboard support and the localization of menus and dialogues for French, Danish, German, and Italian truly makes this on-screen keyboard a world-wide solution.
This industry-leading software was licensed by Microsoft and forms the basis for the Microsoft On-Screen Keyboard included in every copy of Microsoft Windows 2000 and XP.
