How to access keyboard in Sierra SCI and AGI games

Post by nozomi »

With the new 2.6.0 release I can't find a way to enter text during gameplay in Sierra SCI and AGI games. With the 2.5.1 build, there was an on screen menu and keyboard button. Now there is an on screen menu button and an mouse/joystick input button, but it doesn't cycle through to the keyboard. Is there a new method, or perhaps I'm overlooking a simple change.

Yes, the way to access the keyboard has changed. Tap and hold on the on screen button that is used to cycle between control modes (mouse/touchpad/controller).
