New X-Key Layout attached.

Hi everyone.  We have attached an X-keys layout for this new device from PI Engineering.  This is a backlit keypad (in blue or red).  We've set this up so the layer function toggles to the "red" layer.  We've also placed in stock die-cut labels for this layout, with the text color suppressed for the inactive layer, while highlighting the text for the active layer.    You can order these from ETC Inc.  The part number is  4250A4067.   This can be ordered from the American (https://shop.etcconnect.com) or European (https://shop.etcconnect.eu) Swag store.  

Otherwise, they can be ordered from your ETC distributor/dealer. 

 

Thanks all!

Anne

  • That is a good option never thought of that. The only other thing I was thinking was to program it or use the file that is here and run boot camp with windows and an external keyboard because i still get limited to the keyboard on the laptop with parallels and mac. Then set the Macroworks to hardware mode to the Xkeys. But since that seemed like a lot of work for what I was after I never pursued it. If I remember when I was looking for the fix it had something to do with the ASC codes and apple just doesn't have one for page up and page down for it to recognize. I am not sure but I knew it was giving me a headache back then. Maybe the next software upgrade for eos they will have where you can type "next" or "last" in the command line. then just create that to happen in Xkeys to happen. Just as a work around for mac book laptops. Hint Hint.
