hopefully that helps or is fast enough

Ok, can I possibly be this dense? I spend all day looking at complex wiring diagrams for $50,000 automobiles, and that key sequence doesn't do anything at all.

Have I lost my sense of humor and can't see a joke? Does this key combo really work for anyone? If so, spell this out for me again because fn key, Sym Tab key, up 1 isn't registering. Arrow up, then 1? Up one time? Hold down Sym Tab or single press?

Are you joking? Just hit the blue dot and then the tab button (says "sym" in blue). Up pops the small symbols keypad and go up one space to get the $

Another way would be to use magikb lite and modify the keyboard map and put the $ wherever you want it.

Fn key followed by the Sym/Tab key, arrow up one time then press the enter key. That sequence gets you to the $ symbol when typing on your PPC (Mogul).

Not on mine. Fn, then Sym then after a 3 second delay the regular keyboard comes on screen. Then pressing up 1 time closes it again.

No symbol keyboard comes up on screen at any point unless I hit the "123" at the top right of the on screen keyboard with my stylus.

Maybe that's why I thought someone was trying to be funny. Guess the jokes on me afterall!

You're right, for XV6800 users, it would be up arrow 3 times then right arrow once then enter. Your 123 key on the onscreen keyboard is on the right hand side of the keyboard?

Sorry meant left. Long day, need sleep.
