Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro is a Windows virtual keyboard for typing with a mouse, pen, or touch screen instead of physical keys. It adds customizable layouts, word suggestions, and multi-language input for tablets, kiosks, and accessible workstations.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro puts a complete virtual keyboard on the Windows desktop for anyone who types with a pointing device rather than physical keys. It sends genuine keystrokes to whichever window is active, so the same software serves browsers, office documents, point-of-sale terminals, and medical or industrial control panels. The keyboard appears automatically when the text cursor enters an input field, or it can sit in a fixed position and stay above other windows. Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro also covers multi-language layouts, word suggestions, gesture shortcuts, adjustable transparency, and sound feedback, which makes it suitable both for accessibility users and for locked-down kiosk machines.
Language handling is one of its stronger points. Each keyboard type shows and types the characters of a chosen language, and a compact language bar switches between installed keyboards with a single click or tap, which suits translators, support desks, and shared multilingual workstations. Shortcut icons can be placed directly on the keys, so Windows tools and everyday applications from file managers to utilities such as Google Ads Editor stay one press away. Administrators can also restrict which keyboard files are available. Because Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro accepts command-line parameters, kiosk developers can show, hide, move, or resize the keyboard from their own application.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro earns its place on a machine by removing the everyday reasons people avoid virtual keyboards. Keys can be enlarged, reshaped, and rearranged, so users with limited motor control are not forced to aim at tiny targets, while themes and transparency keep the layout readable on bright shop floors and in dark control rooms alike. Holding a key repeats it at a steady rate, exactly like a hardware keyboard, which helps with casual games and long strings of digits. Word suggestions cut down the clicks needed for slow one-finger typing, gestures handle capitals, spaces, and deletions with a swipe, and keystroke sounds confirm every press for users who would rather not look down. Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro stores each layout as a plain text file, so an organisation can design one keyboard and deploy it across dozens of terminals, adding labels, numeric pads, or branding as needed.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro accepts input from a mouse, touch screen, pen, joystick, or any other pointing device. Each press is delivered to the focused application as an ordinary keystroke, so software that has no built-in on-screen input behaves exactly as if a physical keyboard were attached.
The keyboard can slide into view by itself the moment the text cursor is placed in an input box, then retreat once the field loses focus, and an optional browser extension extends the same behaviour to web forms. Positions, sizes, and monitor handling are configurable for each setup.
Add, cut, copy, paste, and reshape individual keys, rename their labels, assign bitmap or vector icons for the normal, hovered, and pressed states, and add extra pages of symbols. Finished layouts are saved as text files that can be copied between machines or reused as templates for new keyboard types.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro ships with keyboard types for many languages, and each one displays and types that language's characters. A language bar switches between them in a single click or tap, letting translators, support teams, and multilingual staff work in several languages without buying localised hardware keyboards.
A suggestions panel proposes the words you are most likely to type next, drawn from the letters already entered and your earlier typing, and one press inserts the chosen word. For anyone typing slowly with a single finger, that prediction can cut the number of clicks dramatically.
Swipe gestures can be mapped to capitals, spaces, deleting the previous word, or closing the keyboard, and any individual gesture can be switched off. Holding a key down repeats the character at a steady interval until release, matching hardware keyboard behaviour for games and long numeric entries.
Lower the keyboard's opacity so the document underneath stays legible, scale it up for large displays or down for small tablets, and choose between the supplied skins or build your own theme with custom fill and font colours for each key state.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro can be shown, hidden, moved, resized, or switched to another layout from your own application through documented functions and command-line parameters, and administrators can lock settings so that users of public terminals or shared kiosks cannot alter the configuration.
Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro provides a virtual keyboard on the Windows desktop for typing without a physical keyboard. Input goes to whichever application has focus, so it suits office work, web browsing, data entry on shared terminals, and any setup where a hardware keyboard is missing or impractical.
People with limited mobility gain the most, because keys can be enlarged, repositioned, and reshaped, and typing can be driven entirely by a pointing device. It is also common on tablets, ultra-mobile PCs, kiosks, and industrial panels where a full-size hardware keyboard is not practical.
Yes. Any pointing device works, including a mouse, touch screen, pen, trackball, or joystick. Every press is sent to the active window as a normal keystroke, so applications respond exactly as they would to a hardware keyboard.
It is built for touch input and works in tablet mode, with swipe gestures for capitals, spaces, and deletions and key sizes that suit fingers. Keystroke sounds can be enabled so users get feedback without watching the keyboard closely.
Yes. The editor lets you add, cut, copy, and paste keys, change their shape, size, and position, rename labels, attach images or vector icons, and add extra pages of digits and symbols. A single key can also send text of any length.
Yes. Keyboard types are supplied for a wide range of languages, and each one both displays and types that language's characters. A language bar switches between installed keyboards with one click or tap, which is useful when several languages are used on one machine.
Yes, all three are adjustable. Comfort On-Screen Keyboard Pro can be zoomed to suit a large monitor or a compact tablet, and its fill colours, font colours, and opacity can be changed so the text underneath stays readable while you type.
Yes. Developers can show, hide, move, resize, or change the layout of the keyboard from their own application using documented functions and command-line parameters, and settings can be locked so public terminal users cannot change the configuration.
