Make a key stroke out of an keystroke?

Post by pettergulbra »

Hi

i have an keyboard, without the norwegian letters Æ Ø Å.

Is it possible to make a hotkey to make this buttons.
Like f.eks:
Alt+a=å and Shift+Alt+a=Å (big letter)

Or is this not possible.


Kindly

Petter

You need to add Remote Receiver\Keyboard plugin to the Autostart folder in EventGhost, that will make EventGhost detect keyboard events.
Then you need to add a macro with Emulate keystrokes action, and specify the key you want (å or Å) in the settings.
Now press the hotkey you want to use and drag the event from the log to the macro.

In the Emulate keystrokes settings you might need to check Use alternative method to emulate keypresses
