How do i use keycaps?
Most Macintosh computers offer a Keycaps option under the apple menu that helps you determine what key combination you need to use to produce a particular symbol or text feature. Selecting keycaps will bring up a graphical representation of the keyboard. When you press the option or shift keys or a combination of the two, the keyboard will display what characters are available when those keys are depressed. Clicking on the key you want with the pointer will make the corresponding character appear in the sample text area above the keyboard graphic; you can then cut and paste the character into the document you are working on. Keycaps also allows you to select different fonts. After you select Keycaps from the apple menu, click the Keycaps Menu to choose the font in which you would like the characters to appear on the keyboard graphic. This feature is especially helpful when viewing the characters in a dingbat or symbol font.
