Hello Smile

I'm just discovering AutoHotkey (started playing with it two days ago) and I really enjoy it despite the fact I still have a lot of problems to do exactly what I want (not a software limitation, only a brain one Embarassed )
Anyway, I used the key-history functionality to hunt down all the "non standard" keys of my keyboard and since it's time consuming I imagine it's worth posting the result here (it might be useful for some people)

Code:

Favorite 1             = FF  173
Favorite 2             = FF  174
Favorite 3             = FF  175
Favorite 4             = FF  176
Favorite 5             = FF  177
Show Favorites          = FF  178

Play / Pause           = B3  122
Stop                 = B2  124
Mute                = AD  120
Volume up             = AF  130
Volume down          = AE  12E
Launch media player    = B5  16D
Previous track         = B1  110
Next track            = B0  119
My documents           = FF  14C
My pictures            = FF  164
My music            = FF  13C
Mail               = B4  16C
Explorer            = AC  132
Messenger            = FF  105
Calc               = B7  121
Log off               = FF  116
Sleep               = 5F  15F
                  = FF  159
                  
F1   (funtion OFF)      = 70  03B
   (function ON)      = FF  13B
F2                  = FF  108
                  = 71  03C
F3                  = FF  107
                  = 72  03D
F4                  = FF  13E
                  = 73  E3E
F5                  = FF  13F
                  = 74  03F
F6                  = FF  140
                  = 75  040
F7                  = FF  141
                  = 76  041
F8                  = FF  142
                  = 77  042
F9                  = FF  143
                  = 78  043
F10                  = FF  123
                  = 79  044
F11                  = FF  157
                  = 7A  057
F12                  = FF  158
                  = 7B  058

Browser Back         = A6  16A
Browser Forward         = A7  169
Keyboard wheel         =


I left the keyboard whell blank since I have no clue how to use the result (it generate two key up events)

With that, I managed to use each key the way I want. The only remaining problem is with the "Calc" key. If I use the scancode to launch the calculator it works but then the calculator also start when I send a "f" key with my remote software (intelliremote). I I use the VK code it works fine though (I have no clue if there is something wrong in using the VK code Smile)

Anyway, I hope this can be useful

It really is useful to me (I started playing with autohotkey one day ago Wink ). I was searching the forum for a list like this but didn't find anything. I am surprised that a list wasn't linked from here.

I have a "Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000". I can confirm that the play/pause is the same "B3 122", but I couldn't figure out the favorites VK and SC. Thanks. (volume up/down are the same also).

btw, could you share the whole remapping script so I just have to modificate it according to my needs? thx Smile

Sorry for answering so late, I hadn't seen your question before Smile
For now they're no real remapping script, I only remapped the "false" function keys in order for them to produce the real ones (which could be done with intellitype pretty easily) and I have created new shortcuts key using the "win" key + each of the function keys (I find the idea of the double use of the function keys good, but wasn't happy with their initial state "off")
Other than that, not many things (I do use Autohotkey exclusively now though so I have more control when launching an application with a shortcut)

But, really having fun with Autohotkey Smile

Hi Abraham64,

Thanks for this great information! Would you mind posting the script that you used to remap the "false" function keys? I would like to see how you executed it, and it should very much come in handy as I have a Microsoft Desktop Elite, too. Very Happy
