I guess it must be a protected key sequence... Why don't you just choose "Lock Workstation" instead of simulated keystrokes?

Sorry, XMBC is for configuring the mouse buttons, it can not re-map keyboard keys.
That would be a completely different program!

Maybe have a look at Microsoft Powertoys which has a keyboard key remapper

The activate tag activates the "window" as in the application, not a sub panel in that application. Scroll is different as the messages are posted to the sub-window handle. In this case, cant you just use {LMB}{PGDN} which will click to select/activate then press page down? If that does no...

It is possible, but in the Logitech software you need to set the buttons (4&5) to back/forward (the windows default) then XMBC should see them.

I’m away on vacation right now but when I get back I will see if I can find more detailed instructions if you haven’t managed to get it working by then!

Well that is certainly odd, on my (windows 10) system with 20 profiles set up, it sat at 4MB with the setup window closed, and it goes up to 6MB when the setup screen is opened (dropping slightly after closing it, but now all the way back down to 4MB because I guess the MS MFC system libraries XMBC ...

That sounds good - its quite a complex configuration you have there, I not sure even I fully understand it, but glad you have got it working for your needs!

PS. I will be away on vacation (in Quebec) for a while, so further replies may be quite delayed (or maybe quicker if I'm in your timezone!)

Glad to hear that XMBC works for you Rick!

XMBC does not and can not support specific devices. XMBC hooks into Windows mouse message system which provides native Windows support for five buttons, scroll and tilt (this is why XMBC can not support more than 5 buttons, as described in the F.A.Q). If your mouse/mouse driver does not send/trigger...

I think so, don't see why not... you wont be able to use "sticky left button [click drag]" because it wont send the alt. On the left button try sim keys, and method 3 (during): {alt}{LMB} That should do it... You will have to try it and see if it works (I am at work right now so cant test ...

ChatGPT may be using out of date information there. You might want to look at button chording instead (even if the GhatGPT method works). Button chording allows you to chord two buttons to perform different actions. XMBC has supported that for quite some time now (at least 5 years), despite what Cha...

Yep, you already found it, but select Method 2, "As mouse button is released" in the How to send the simulated key press dropdown.
Thanks for leaving your detailed message for others!

I wonder if there is some Asus or HP software that is also intercepting the hooks - although if the buttons highlight in orange in XMBC, that suggests that XMBC is seeing the messages. Does it fail in ALL applications or only some? It will be worth turning on debug logging (Settings -> Logging and U...

Sorry, what do you mean by check/uncheck and application be shortcut? DO you mean an application profile on the application/window profile list? If so, then no there are not shortcuts per say... You can use the keyboard to navigate to the list control, then arrow up/down to select and space to toggl...

Ahhh, I see.... that may be quite tricky.... effectively your saying delay the multiple physical clicks but still honor them, just with a delay (like adding to a queue that is filling quickly but emptying slowly. It makes sense, but its not something that XMBC can do right now. And I'm not sure but ...

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you want to achieve, but I will give it a go. Firstly, options 4 and 5 are not really important. They are basically the same as options 1 and 2 these days (and can be considered legacy/redundant). Now, Method 6 repeats the keys only while the button is held down (press...
