IBM 3270 Emulation
Push mode has two secondary modes, Boundary mode and Edit mode.
Boundary mode is activated when Push mode is entered. The cursor will remain at its
current position while you type additional characters, and text will be pushed in the
opposite direction of the screen orientation.
Edit mode is activated when the cursor is moved from its Boundary position into the
Push segment area. In this mode, text can be edited within the Push segment while
typing in the field's natural direction.
Bilingual Keyboard Support
When a code page that supports a bilingual keyboard is selected, you can toggle
between the National and Latin character set by pressing the keys
Shift
+
-
on the
keypad. The character
N
or
L
will be displayed on the status line to indicate which
character set is currently active.
Selecting the
Numeral Swap
option in the
IBM 3270 Settings
dialog box will cause
all numbers to be displayed using the National character set when in Latin character set
mode.
Alternate Code Page
If a language supports two code pages (e.g. Hebrew New Code and Hebrew Old
Code), you can switch between the two by pressing the keys
Ctrl
+
Shift
+
Alt
+
-
on
the numeric keypad. This function can be assigned to a different key or key combina-
tion by using the
IB_ALTCP
virtual key name.
Keyboard Mapping
The illustration on the following page shows where IBM 3270 keyboard functions are
mapped to keys on the 101/102 key Enhanced AT keyboard layout. Special key
functions that are provided on the IBM 3270 keyboard can be mapped to any key on
your keyboard by using the IB virtual key names listed in the
Define Keyboard
Macros
dialog box.
