THe windows virtual keyboard does make its appearance as designed for Windows 8 albeit smaller form factor than the Inconia’s.
#ACER ICONIA 6120 PROGRAM LEFT KEYBOARD BUTTON HOW TO#
As of this writing I am still unaware of how to get the target software to bring up Acer’s virtual keyboard which does come up in the bios actually.

That feature is where a user places his or her palms () on the lower screen, hence bringing up Acer’s full sized virtual keyboard and yes it did not come over for Windows 8.

On the downside one of coolest features found on the Iconia would probably not be there on Windows 8. I wondered if the dual screens would be functional within Windows 8 and thus would end up being a nice door stop for a future unknown open door draft choice in my house? I also knew that Acer ships it with a Windows 7, so the possibility of bricking both screens felt remote and that the tablet is up to Microsoft’s specs for the minimum for Windows 8 screen resolution wise was 1024×768 and the screens on the Iconia are both 1366×768. This video will show you the features present in the Acer Ring software which is pre-installed on your Acer.īut I must admit that while waiting for shipment ( which was delayed for a week unbeknownst to me from the seller ( grrr)) my loathing began to take hold. There are many reasons purchasing this Touchbook which I will speak to, but the primary was for its cool factor of dual touch screens. Long story short is that I didn’t have to pay MSRP on this gem so technically its used, but that is fine for my purposes. Souping up the TouchBook I had purchased the Acer off of Ebay from a company which claimed they used differing laptops for demos for roughly a week, no more than ten hours of usage promised, and would sell them in a non new condition. The following are some of my initial thoughts on what I have run into as I have begun this journey which can be read by developers and non developers alike. I am primarily a C# Silverlight developer so it is fundamental that I understand exactly what the pro’s and con’s of creating applications to the next version of windows will entail. My goal is to learn the metro style programming and experience the wave of the future in application development on tablet and smaller items. I recently began my Windows 8 journey by installing the developer preview on an Acer Iconia 6120 or more commonly know as the dual touch screen laptop or touchbook as they have named it. Making the tablet ineffective as a Windows 8 platform. Windows 8 can be installed and it works, but the lower screen, nor the specialized keyboard button (on the side of the laptop) does not bring up the keyboard.
