sahsanu Posted May 27, 2010 Share Posted May 27, 2010 Hello team,What I need to do?Remap Right Shift to Left Shift so pressing Right Shift will act as if Left Shift was pressed.Why?.I am using synergy+ to control several computers with the same mouse and keyboard but here is the problem, if there is a Remote Desktop on the controlled computer, right shift doesn't work inside this remote desktop but left shift works as expected, that's the reason I need to remap right shift (it is a known synergy bug).What I tried?Actually every example about remap keys found on this forum but none works fine (or more correctly I can't made it to work ) for shift nor alt keys. I was trying to remap Left Alt to Right Alt because it is easier to check whether the remap is working fine (for example: you can press Left Alt + 2 and check if @ is being writed correctly).Some wrong examples but as I said I tried a lot of things and now after a few hours I don't know even what I tried :#include <Misc.au3> #cs Left Shift: A0 Right Shift: A1 Left Alt: A4 Right Alt: A5 #ce $dll = DllOpen("user32.dll") While 1 If _IsPressed("A4") Then Send("{RALT}") EndIf Sleep(50) WEnd DllClose($dll)HotKeySet("{LALT}","_ChangeMap") HotKeySet("{ESC}","_Quit") While 1 Sleep(50) WEnd Func _ChangeMap() Send("{RALT}") EndFunc Func _Quit() Exit EndFuncWorkaround: I can easily remap Right shift to Left shift modifying/adding registry key "HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout\Scancode Map" with REG_BINARY value "0x0000000000000000020000002A00360000000000" but this change requires a reboot and the change will be permanent. Just in case you need more info about how to remap keys this way, take a look to this web page. And if someone wants some GUI to do it there are some excellent programs, sharpkeys (this one has source code available) & KeyTweak are two of them.Thank you all in advance for you time and support.sahsanu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
