TAB+ not working?

Post by roarkr » 13 Feb 2011, 23:40

Hi,
I found your nice app when searhing the net for a way to add a second keyboard with different mapping to use with FSX and PMDG planes.
Your program was just what I needed.

But, when assigning a single key for push-in/push-out the THRUST button on the PMDG 747 MCP which has the key sequence TAB+R I have problems.

I type in {TAB}R, but it doesn't work. Is it correct or am I wrong here. I have tried other combination as well , but with no luck.

rgs,
roar

{TAB} works as single tab key, not as modifier. It means {TAB}R will send tab key press followed by R, not tab together with R.
However someone already requested this funcionality so TAB is also support as "shift key" - sent as & (ampersand).
So answer to your questions: try "&r" as key sequence.
