Surface pro 3 keyboard settings

jonnyyyl · September 4, 2014

I recently got my hands on the surface pro 3.

One thing that is really bugging be is that the F1-F12 keys are reversed, in that the in order to press alt-F4, i gotta press alt+FN+F4..I am not sure where to adjust this setting.

There isn't an insert button too. @@

Many thanks in advance.

Fn + Caps Lock

Other intresting key combination is:

Fn + Del -> Increase screen brightness

Fn + BackSpace -> Decrease screen brightness

Fn + Space -> Print Screen

Fn + Alt + Space -> Print screen on the active window only

To right-click on the track pad, you can tap with 2 fingers simultaneously, and it will do this.

Sadly there is no Insert key. That key is being pushed away, more and more these days. You can see more and more keyboards where teh Insert key is now a small key and Delete is 2 key height. It's not an often used key as it used to be.

The good news is that you can remake a key to do this, as you are running Windows.

Hope this helps.

Enjoy your Surface Pro 3
