The final keyboard layout on the Pandora looks like this:

In addition, XFCE has some default assignments:

  • Shoulder Buttons: L=Shift, R=Ctrl
  • D-pad: Cursor Keys
  • L-Nub: Mouse Cursor
  • Alt/Ctrl/Start(1 sec) Kill(long hold)
  • R-Nub: Mousebutton Mode (L=L mousebutton click, U=Double-L-click, R=R mousebutton click, D=Middle mousebutton click)
  • Game: A=Home, B=End, Y=PgUp, X=PgDn
  • Shift-Enter: Compose mode
  • Fn key: Sticky, so can be pressed before a key which you want to modify.

Compose mode allows <shift><enter><fn> s a to combine " and a to get a special character, for example.

If a program is greater than the Pandora's screen resolution, you can scroll in XFCE by holding down alt then clicking anywhere in the window and dragging it around.

In minimenu, pressing Y when an icon is highlighted brings up the readme files.

Note: In DOSBox, in order to use the colon symbol, you have to press shift (left shoulder button) + Fn + ";". This also goes for the underscore symbol.

History

In the months before the first preorders were taken, there was much discussion and community voting about the best layout. This was one of the final votes. The final layout was different from either one of the two most popular community proposals, but incorporated some of the suggestions such as having a "Pandora" button.
