Run the Welcome with key -keyboard Welcome.bat example: java -cp dist/QSystem.jar ru.apertum.qsystem.client.forms.FWelcome -sport 3128 -cport 3129 -s localhost  -keyboard

In this case keyboard and mouse will usable. Haw it works: you need to change welcome_buttons.properties. Where are pairs <symbol from keyboard/mouse>=<ID of service from DB>. When you are pressing a key on keyboard then you will get in line to service with appropriate ID. The same with mouse. Mouse`s button send 1, 2 or 3 if mouse have 3 buttons.

For example:

1=1381156223423

2=1380730608383

3=2

a=1381156225722

b=1380730608383

c=2

... and so on. Press 'a' and go to Setvice with id=1381156225722.

You can find ID of services in Admin programm in service redactor in top right corner(or directly in DB).

When you start Welcome then small form will be open and this form need to have focus for catching events from keyboard and mouse. Every 30 seconds the form going to front and mouse is captured. It looks like mouse moves to top left corner of monitor screen.
