ygolohcisp Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Hey all, I want to use the G keys on my K95 to send Windows keycodes that I can't send already with the other keys (so that I have more useful keys to control my VJ application). I know I can send macros consisting of the other keys, but that's not useful to me, because I can already make those macros in my VJ application. But to increase the range of expressivity I need a way to send a larger set of keycodes. E.g. apparently some keyboards have keys for going forward/back in the browser, or for email: https://github.com/wesbos/keycodes/blob/gh-pages/scripts.js#L134 I want to figure out how I can send those kind of keycodes that my keyboard doesn't have but that exist in Windows (8.1) and that are supported by the K95 macros. Is there a way to do this? If yes, is there a list of those keycodes? I guess I have to use this list to figure out which ones are unused by the existing keys: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd375731(v=vs.85).aspx But how can I actually create a macro to send a key that I can't press? I don't see an option to do that in the macro editor. Is it possible by writing a script that edits the macro file? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the REMAP keys actions to make the G keys act like keys that are not otherwise present. I've had success using the following: Keyboard Non-US \ and |F16F19F20F21F23F24Keyboard Lang 4 (Hiragana)Keyboard Lang 3 (Katakana)Keyboard Intl' 4 (Henkan)Keyboard Intl' 5 (Muchenkan)Keyboard Intl' 3 (Yen)Keyboard , (Brazillian Keypad .)Keyboard Intl' 2 (Katakana/Hiragana)Keyboard Intl' 1 (Ro) I have G16, G17, and G18 mapped to LAUNCH APPLICATION actions for Calculator, Email, and Text editor.

ygolohcisp Posted May 29, 2017 Author Share Posted May 29, 2017 Thanks so much! Btw, do you also have suggestions for key codes to assign to G16, G17 and G18? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comet 1626864951 Posted June 2, 2017 Share Posted June 2, 2017 Well, I didn't use F17, F18, or F22, so you could use those! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
