windows 8.1 RT OSK

[Jonathan Craft]

I have recently noticed a key on the onscreen keyboard and have no idea what it does.

Please have a look at the attached image and its the key next to CTRL and spacebar and looks like a 'sun'

Please help.....Thank you

I think the key toggles the OSK keys lighting up when you tap them - useful when entering passwords with people around you.

"The "sun" hides the flashing of the keys when entering passwords. So it's harder to guess the password for someone looking over your shoulder" I got the answer from surfaceforums.net
