Description of the new feature / enhancement
Hello,
First, I would like to congratulate you on the efforts with the application, including the desire to make it increasingly modern!
An attempt was made to modernize the Keyboard Manager recently in v.0.98, but it still lacks features compared to the old editor! I believe you have this in mind, as you have kept the option to use the old manager, but below is what I miss in the new version and that should be included soon.
The old manager had a dedicated option to remap keys, which displayed a list of possible keys and commands as the destination for the pressed key that would be replaced!
This turns out to be super useful when wanting to create new, more useful keys on considerably simpler keyboards. For example, sometimes we have older keyboards that do not have multimedia keys for music or volume control, or we simply have these keys but they are currently damaged. The old key remapper displayed several special keys in a list format, allowing us to select any of them to use in place of basic keys or shortcuts, which allowed, for example, me to assign the F8 key to decrease the volume and F9 to increase it – 2 keys rarely used in daily life but which become extremely useful thanks to this possibility!
My wish is simple: add this same list of special keys, in a selectable way, to the new keyboard manager menu, to reopen the enormous range of possibilities it brought in its old version!
Scenario when this would be used?
Add more usefulness to keys that are rarely used on a daily basis
