Type Without Using the Keyboard (On-Screen Keyboard)
On-Screen Keyboard lets you type and interact with your computer using an alternative input device like a switch, rather than the physical keyboard.

To allow faster typing or make more keys available
You can display On-Screen Keyboard in two different views (Standard Keyboard or Enhanced Keyboard) to promote faster typing or maximize the number of available keys. Standard keyboard mode includes fewer keys and takes less space. You may find that it is faster when all you need to do is type. Enhanced keyboard mode includes the numeric keypad (the number keys are located on the right side of most physical keyboards), as well as additional keys. You can also organize keys either in rows or like a keyboard.
To organize keys either in rows or like a keyboard
Block layout displays the keys in vertical and horizontal rows, which can make selecting the keys easier. Regular layout displays the keys in overlapping rows, simulating a physical keyboard. Regular layout and block layout can each be used on either of the keyboard modes described above.
To add extra keys to the keyboard
When in regular layout, you can add extra keys to your layout by selecting the number of keys you want from the keyboard menu.
101 keys displays a standard keyboard.
102 keys displays an extra backslash ("\") next to the Shift key in the lower left.
106 keys displays extra characters useful for those typing in Japanese.
