IMG Logo

What is My-T-Soft AT?

My-T-Soft AT is a powerful new version of My-T-Mouse (IMG's original Onscreen Keyboard utilities introduced in 1993) with the additional features most often requested by the Assistive Technology community.

My-T-Soft AT is actually a series of 11 panels (over 125 functions) that can be opened and closed to provide access to various features and functions including: 176 US and International Onscreen Keyboards, 2 pre-defined Windows (most often used functions) panels, programmable unlimited Macro Button panels (each panel can be assigned to "auto open" with any application), Edit panel, Numeric panel, Calculator panel with "popup" calculator Tape, Verbal (voice confirmation) Key Feedback, a 2x-10x Area Magnifier (magnifies any area of the screen without additional hardware or enlarging fonts), Show & Hide Keys (turn on/off keys to minimize access and reduce confusion), Smart Window (automatically re-positions keyboards, panels or magnifier off of the area in use), Key Dwell Timer (automatically selects a key under the cursor), and an integral Word Completion / Prediction program (with editable dictionary). Keyboards, Buttons, and Panels can be set to any of 12 graphic sizes and can be color coded by the user.

What kind of pointing devices will My-T-Soft AT work with?

Any retail or adaptive pointing device (mouse, trackball, glidepad, touchpad, InfraRed pointer, serial joystick, touchscreen, wand, sip & puff, wireless pointer, pen, switch, headmouse, etc) that connects to the serial or PS2 port!

What kind of computer will My-T-Soft AT run on?

Any PC Compatible computer capable of running Windows.

What operating system do I need?

Windows 3x or Windows 95 / 98. (Windows NT/2000 due 4th Qtr 2000)

What kind of software will My-T-Soft AT work with?

Any software that runs under Windows 3x or 95 / 98 (and most DOS programs that can be run in a Windows DOS Shell environment.

How can My-T-Soft AT work with all pointing devices and applications?

My-T-Soft AT is written at the same level as the Windows operating system. That means it runs above the pointing device and graphics drivers (it lets the device drivers do their job without creating conflicts) and runs below Windows so it doesn't compete with other applications. Unlike keys, buttons and panels created in Visual Basic, or onscreen keyboard and key panel applications that are sensitive to changes in pointing device / graphic card drivers or applications that make low level Windows calls, My-T-Soft AT is reliable and robust. That's why IMG is the only producer of onscreen keyboards and macro buttons/panels whose products are recommended or offered by major pointing device manufacturers worldwide.

What resolution will My-T-Soft AT work in?

My-T-Soft AT supports 12 sizes. It can run in any VGA (or higher) resolution, from tiny handheld LCD's to giant video Whiteboards.

My-T-Soft AT does not do a Ctrl-Alt-Del! Why & what options do I have?

The Ctrl-Alt-Del used in PCs is a system level hardware signal - it is impossible to generate this without hardware. My-T-Soft AT has options like restart windows / reboot system on its Advanced menu. You may also review the commercial Developer's Kit in our Developer's Corner for utilities that restart / reboot the system. Finally, review the TASKMAN.EXE program in the WINDOWS folder - this has functionality similar to the pop-up task manager in Windows 95/98.

How do I know My-T-Soft AT will work for me?

Download our demo. IMG's demos are actually full working copies of the product. The demo has a built in timer that shuts down the program in about an hour without saving any settings (you can restart it by double-clicking on the program's Icon).

What about technical support and program updates?

Unlike shareware based or grant funded products, which cannot provide sufficient income to maintain a full-time company with adequate test and support capabilities (because the developer is holding down a full-time job, or the grant period ends), IMG has been providing onscreen keyboards and pointing device utilities since 1993. A large part of our business is in developing utilities that are ultimately bundled by pointing devices manufacturers under their own name. With international distribution on every continent, IMG's products are used by consumers, corporations, commercial and industrial manufacturers, educational institutions, and government agencies worldwide. This means quality products, with quality support, and timely updates.
