Exchange of FN and CTRL key - hold Funktion

Post by Cooper_da » 27 Jan 2023, 08:28

Hi,

I want to change my “fn button” on the left to “LControl” and make my “RControl” button send “fn”.

Background: new Thinkpad with fn and CTRL changed. Cannot changed by default and using external keyboard on a regular base makes this useless.

So I figured out that my fn key is:

Code: Select all

 
FF  163                 d             0.92       ^                          
FF  163                 u             0.02       ^


So following script resulting in:

Code: Select all

SC163::send {LControl}
return
 
A2  01D i               d             2.61       LControl             
A2  01D i               u             0.00       LControl

and

Code: Select all

RControl:: send {SC163}
Return
 
2F  163  i               d             7.19       Help                    
2F  163  i               u             0.00       Help

Two Problems:

The sent “LControl” does not work as hold down with e.g. CTRL+C
The RControl sent something different.



I am quite new to this, is there any obvious error or misconception?

Thanks.
