Position of the start menu

Conflict with on-screen keyboard

from Stardock Forums

Hello all,

due to my disability I am forced to use an on-screen keyboard. The default start menus in Windows 8,10 and 11 always open above the keyboard, as do all applications. 

When I enable Start11, the start menu is reduced by the height of the keyboard, but appears at the bottom, sort of behind the keyboard.

I would be grateful if you could change this!

Many thanks and best regards from Germany

Hello,
Sorry to hear you are having issues. May I know, that on screen keyboard is not default Windows on screen keyboard, yes? If yes, what is it.

Thanks

That does not appear to be the case with the Windows Native on-screen keyboards (what we can only support):

or...

They can be moved out of the way, however.
