<emphasis>Keyboard Layout</emphasis> - this radio group offers two mutually-exclusive options for indicating which keyboard layout applies to you: Desktop or Laptop. To quickly access <application>Orca</application> functions an "Orca modifier key" is used as a shift-type key, to be used in conjunction with other keys meaningful to <application>Orca</application>. This modifier (also called a system, shift or host key) is the <keycap>Insert</keycap> key for the Desktop layout and the <keycap>Caps Lock</keycap> key for the Laptop layout. For example, to bring up the GUI configuration dialog would require <keycap>Insert + Space</keycap> with the Desktop layout, or <keycap>Caps Lock + Space</keycap> when using the Laptop layout.
