    What does numpad 5 indicates when numlock key is OFF??

    Is it "dash" or "minus"?

    But pressing it nothing happens.

      Hi


      suppose numpad 6

      When Numlock key is ON if you press this it would write
      "6" in a text editor.

      When Numlock key is OFF if you press this key it would play the role of a right arrow.


      Same thing i am asking for Numpad 5 key.

      When numlock key is OFF, what will it do?

        They put a #5 there because it would look silly without one.

        Ok thought of a reason... I lke Fed's too, but mine is that if you are playing a game, that might be a function for something... Also for people who do a lot of mathmatical actions on their computer, the Num pad is for easy use.

          I'm sure I had a flight simulator where the #5 centralised the rudder.
