WinSTon allows the use of key short-cuts and also a remapping table to configure PC keyboards to foreign TOS images. These features are accessible through this dialog. The keys F11 and F12 are always assigned as the 'full-screen' toggle and 'mouse mode' toggle. You can switch between a full-screen display and back again using F11 and change between Windows and ST mouse emulation mode via F12. If no short-cut keys are assigned then pressing SHIFT+F11 will bring up the Floppy Drive A file section dialog. To insert a disc into Floppy B you can use the short-cut SHIFT+F12. |

When using a setting other than standard ST speed this option will automatically turn off the keyboard repeat allowing you to type correctly even when using accelerated applications. |
You can assign a number of operations to the short-cut keys F11 and F12. Only the SHIFT/CTRL versions can be modified by the user. You can pick from a variety of different options: Full Screen - Toggle between a Full-Screen and Window display. Mouse Mode - Toggle between Windows and ST mouse emulation mode. Record YM/WAV - Start/Stop recording of a YM/WAV sound file. Record Animation - Start/Stop recording of screen animation. Joystick Emulation - Toggle between joystick/cursor emulation. Sound On/Off - Turn the sound on/off. Maximum Speed - Toggle between maximum emulation speed and the current setting. 'Boss' Key - When pressed this short-cut will minimize the WinSTon window(after returning from full-screen if necessary) and restore input to the next available application. This may be used if you wish to exit WinSTon quickly if you were using it when you shouldn't be! |
Different territory ST keyboards had keys in different places. You will also find that a PC keyboard layout is different to that of an ST. WinSTon uses a built-in remapping table to convert the PC key presses into ones which best match the ST keyboard. You may find that this default remapping table is not correct for your keyboard layout. Keyboard mapping files can be used to change how WinSTon interprets the PC key presses when they are sent to the emulator. For more information on creating and modifying a keyboard mapping file see the Keyboard Mapping File page. |
