Newer Thinkpad Keyboards: Need Map!

#1 Post by ErgoOne » Sun Oct 19, 2014 4:39 pm

I have a new Thinkpad with the new keyboard. I need to do screenshots on my laptop regularly, and I *cannot* find the PrtScn key. The one set of instructions that proports to tell me which key this is didn't work: at least, using it as if it was PrtScn gave me a text URL and nothing else. (No screenshot.)

I just realized that the user's guide for this Thinkpad has no information on the keyboard layout or where to find the legacy key functions. Can anybody here help me with this? Thanks!

It would help if you told us exactly WHICH laptop you are talking about... :roll:

Although it may not be true for a US keyboard (poster is in Australia and could be using a non-US layout).

Figures I looked at the *left* side of the keyboard. I have severely limited vision (blind in one eye, no peripheral clouded in the other), so I sometimes miss the obvious. :-) Thanks!
