Supplementing a Virtual Input Keyboard
First Claim
1. A computer implemented method for supplementing a virtual input keyboard, the computer implemented method comprising:
- displaying, by a computer device, a form and a virtual input keyboard in a display of the computer device;
receiving, by the computer device, an input selecting a particular field within the form;
retrieving, by the computer device, one or more character key sets corresponding to previous data entries of the particular field selected;
determining, by the computer device, a delta set of character keys based on character keys in the one or more character key sets that do not match displayed character keys on the virtual input keyboard;
generating, by the computer device, a set of delta character supplemental virtual input keyboards based on the delta set of character keys; and
displaying, by the computer device, the set of delta character supplemental virtual input keyboards in the display.

Abstract
Supplementing a virtual input keyboard is provided. A form and a virtual input keyboard are displayed in a display of a data processing system. An input is received selecting a particular field within the form. One or more character key sets are retrieved corresponding to previous data entries of the particular field selected. A delta set of character keys is determined based on character keys in the one or more character key sets that do not match displayed character keys on the virtual input keyboard. A set of delta character supplemental virtual input keyboards is generated based on the delta set of character keys. Then, the set of delta character supplemental virtual input keyboards are displayed in the display.
