The virtual keyboard is used as the input device for touch operator panels.
It opens when you double-click an operator element with input capability (editor, edit field).
The virtual keyboard can be positioned anywhere on the operator interface. In addition, you
can toggle between a full keyboard and a reduced keyboard that only includes the number
block. Moreover, with the full keyboard, you can toggle between English key assignments
and the keyboard assignment for the current language setting.
