Abstract
In some examples, an electronic device includes a first part comprising a touch-sensitive surface, and a mechanical keyboard pivotally attached to the first part, where the mechanical keyboard is pivotable between a first position where the keyboard is away from the touch-sensitive surface, and a second position where the keyboard is engaged to the touch-sensitive surface. The touch-sensitive surface is to detect actuations of keys of the mechanical keyboard when the mechanical keyboard is at the second position and engaged with the touch-sensitive surface.
