  1. I recently got the fantastic K55 keyboard so I'm trying to make use of the Fn key by mapping some macros to Fn combinations (for example, Fn+F to launch Firefox).

    To do this, I configured the Fn key to switch to profile "Fn" while pressed. In this profile, I remapped F to run Firefox.

     

    Everything worked perfectly until I tried to create more Fn combinations.

    Let's say I want to map Fn+F1 keys to F13. To do so I need to first make the "Fn" profile active.

    Remapping the key was fine but when I tried to rename the keyboard assignment to "F13", I started Firefox associated to Fn+F instead of typing the character 'F'... (╯‵□′)╯︵┻━┻

     

    Of course, it was possible to circumvent this problem by typing in the default profile and copy-pasting.

    But what if I mapped Fn+V to something else, let's say, Visual Studio???

     

     

    Conclusion: It would be nice to be able to edit a profile without making it active to facilitate the remapping of alphanumeric keys.

  2. I regularly use online meeting programs such as Zoom, and need to often unmute myself by pressing a keyboard shortcut while pulling the microphone of my Void Elite Wireless to enable it. It would be nice if there's some way to programmatically detect when I pull or raise the mic so I won't have to manually press a shortcut in addition to moving the mic.

     

    If the SDK cannot offer that feature... then it might be possible to use a FileSystemWatcher to watch reads to MicOn.wav and MicOff.wav in the iCUE installation dir, and enable voice prompts. This sounds really hackish though so I guess there must be alternatives for such a basic feature.
