HOW TO USE IME ON/OFF FOR JAPANESE LANGUAGE

I use JAPANESE LANGUAGE.

MACBOOK

OS 10.4.10

CLIENT OS WINDOWS 2000Server SP4

I use vmware fusion.

But I don't use IME on/off.

How to use this method.

I am using a Japanese Windows Vista on a Japanese MacBook (using the 1.0GA build) and I am using the following keys to change between the IME modes (sadly I cannot test Win2k or WinXP currently):

To change from Romaji to Hiraga Input Mode: Push 「カナ・かな」 key

Change from Hiraga Mode to other Kana Modes: Push 「英数」 key

(ひらがな・全角カタナカ・半角カタカナ・ひらがな等)

Change from any Kana Mode to Romaji Mode: Push 「shift+英数」 keys

I don't know if that is all the combinations, but it's the ones I am using. As for 変換, I don't really know if this key is mapped somewhere, probably one of the VMWare people can shed some light on this.

I hope this helps, cheers,

Thorsten

たぶん私のテストした時にIMEはちょっと変な状態でした。

今日の朝もう一度同じようなキーを押した時、「シフト+英数」で全角ロマジと半角ロマジを切り替えられました。あるタイミング私のVMのIMEの状態は可笑しくなったかも知れません。

It seems that during my tests the IME was in a little bit strange state.

After trying the same this morning, the combination of "Shift+英数" allowed me to also change between "Full-Width Romaji" and "Half-Width Romaji" (I somewhat remembered I could do that before, but when posting I didn't somehow notice).

Cheers,

Thorsten
