Abstract

A tactile-adjustable keyboard includes plural keyswitches, an adjustment frame and a hybrid operation button. The adjustment frame is disposed corresponding to the keyswitches to move and interfere at least one of the keyswitches. The hybrid operation button includes a tactile switch, a non-tactile knob disposed at least partially surrounding the tactile switch, and a lens disposed at least partially surrounding the non-tactile knob. The tactile switch includes a switch shaft and a switch bar. The switch shaft is disposed in rotatable connection with the adjustment frame to move the adjustment frame. The switch bar extends externally from the switch shaft. A tactile feedback of said one keyswitch changes in response to the rotation of the tactile switch, while a non-tactile signal is generated in response to the rotation of the non-tactile knob, and the lens is illuminated in response to the rotation of the tactile switch.
