1. •You will now see an icon in the menu bar just to the left of the day and time. It will probably look like a small flag to show the keyboard you are currently using. You can select this icon to get a menu of all available keyboards (based on the keyboards you selected in the previous step).The US-Slovak keyboard should appear as a choice in this menu. Select it and you are ready to begin typing Slovak characters as described here.
   

1. • If you checked “Keyboard Viewer” in the Preferences, you will also have a choice of “Show Keyboard Viewer”. The Keyboard Viewer is a small window that will show you what characters are available to be typed, based on the keyboard that is currently selected and what modifier keys (Shift, Option, etc.) are currently pressed. You can type characters directly or can click on the Keyboard Viewer to type them.
