Numbers and Shifting

The Letter panel and the Punctuation panels can be modified in various ways to produce all the 220 characters of the Latin1 character set with these modifications – something that no other keyboard allows. Let us start with the 123 key.

Numbers

A tap on the 123 key shows a panel with numbers and the keys most often used in conjunction with numbers: currency symbols, such as $ ¢ £ ¥ €, the degree ° and mathematical symbols.

The right side duplicates the Punctuation panel. The Number panel remains until you tap on the abc key.  

Shifted Numbers

Shifting numbers displays other more rarely used symbols such as ½, ‰, superscripts ¹ ² ³, the non-breaking space (n.b.) and the ellipsis…

You may not use these symbols every day, but if you need them, they are there.

The effect of shifting for letters is, as expected, to get upper case letters. The effect for keys of the Punctuation panel is as shown in the above image: Tapping the Shift key, for instance, will put the semi-colon right at the tip of your pen.
