Hello, Erwin, 

I would like to note that the RadVirtualKeyboardForm.KeyboardForm is a derivative of RadForm. Hence, in order to hide its icon, you can simply set the ShowIcon property false. Alternatively, you can set the KeyboardForm.Icon to the desired icon:

this.radVirtualKeyboardForm1.KeyboardForm.ShowIcon = false;

OR

this.radVirtualKeyboardForm1.KeyboardForm.Icon = Properties.Resources.WinFormsIcon;

As to the layout of the keyboard, I would like to note that there are several predefined layouts that may be suitable for your scenario. RadVirtualKeyboard also arranges its keys in logical layouts which control the specific position for each key. This allows you to customize the layout in a desired manner. Additional information is available in the following help article: https://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/controls/virtual-keyboard/default-layouts 

I hope this information helps. If you need any further assistance please don't hesitate to contact me.

Hello, Erwin,

Setting the KeyboardForm.VirtualKeyboard.LayoutType property to KeyboardLayoutType.Numpad produces the following result on my end:

Are you obtaining a different result on your end?

If you have any specific setup, it would be greatly appreciated if you can provide more details about it in order to test it in my sample project. Thus, we would get better understanding of the precise case and provide further assistance. 

Thank you in advance for your cooperation.

I am looking forward to your reply.
