Add New Code
The Add New Code grouping on the dialog is a list of valid keys and
modifiers that can be assigned to a programmable key. A modifier (Shift,
Ctrl, Alt, Win or Win Appl) are enabled for a key code, by selecting the
appropriate check boxes. These check boxes are dynamically updated so
that only valid combinations are allowed. After selecting a key code and
modifiers, click the Enter button to display the new code in the Text Edit
box. You must click Enter after each new code selection. Non-printable
codes are enclosed within ‘<’ and ‘>’.
Hints for editing a programmable key definition:
• Select (or click on) a code in the Add New Code list.
• Under Left or Right, select the Shift, Ctrl, Alt, or Win check boxes to
enable one or more modifiers for the new code.
• Click Enter to display the new code in the text box. If entering
multiple codes, click Enter after each code selection or double-click
each code selection. The text box is automatically updated.
• Type the characters in the Text box as you want them to appear using
shifted or unshifted characters.
• To insert a nonprintable code in the text, select the code from the
Add New Code list and then click Enter. The nonprintable code is
inserted in the text with brackets.
