RDM - Set Keyboard Function Key to ON when connecting

RDM - Set Keyboard Function Key to ON when connecting

avatar

Hi

The applications I use on Windows Server box I'm connecting to make extensive use of Function keys.

The keyboard I use on a traveling PC (SurfacePro 3) has the Fn key turned off by default.

I want to set the Function key on the keyboard to On when I connect.

Any suggestions on how I can set options within Properties window to do this.

Thanks, Nigel.

Hello,


I have looked into macros to enable that key, be it our own technology of using AutoIt or Autohotkey.

The solution cannot be in RDM I'm afraid. That key is often in the hardware layer and not surfaced in the windows events. Depending on your device, you may be lucky and it may generate a code, please have a look at https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/KeyList.htm#SpecialKeys to see if it does


Best regards,

Maurice
