2.4.   Virtual Keyboard and Special Signs





To create web-based educational material, the developer needs special signs and letters. The LT Development Tool offers a full set of Greek letters (both capital and lower case) and 48 general and special math signs as well as 60 letters with orthographical signs. To insert any of the characters, open the Virtual Keyboard with the Misc menu or toolbar, select any one of the four character sets at the top of the dialog box and click on the sign you want to insert. A special statement corresponding to the selected sign is inserted into the editor. For example "Copyright" © sign is substituted with "& copy;" statement; "Infinity" sign is  substituted with  "& infin;" statement etc.

"Greater than" and "Less than" signs:
You should avoid typing signs > (greater than ) and < (less than ) directly from your keyboard. In HTML language these signs are reserved because they open and close each control statement, so the browser treats everything between them as a command and the result may be unpredictable. Use the Virtual Keyboard to insert the signs into your text.

2.7. Undo Typing

To undo current typing use "back arrow" button shown in the picture below. This undo command is standard for all Windows editors.




Another way to execute the command is to use the Menu as shown in the picture below.




2.8. Saving Text

To save your current text and check how it looks in the browser use the "Set" button.
To undo the last set, use the "Undo" button. The button restores the text which existed before the last "Set" operation. Your current text is saved in the buffer and can be restored by pressing the "Undo" button again.  In fact, any click on the "Undo" button toggles between the past and present version of your text.
