Switching keys around (through software)
« on: Sun, 23 March 2014, 19:51:58 »
Need some help, suggestions...
I have a TypeMatrix 2030:

58525-0" alt="" class="bbc_img" />

I love the keyboard layout, scissor switches, key travel, etc, but I have something that makes me put it away, every time I start using it...
The Enter, Backspace and Delete keys are in the middle (makes sense, and its OK) but I can't get used to it!
Until I do, I would like to map some of the special keys on the right.

I'm looking for the simplest to use/configure, less memory intrusive app out there.
I've seen the Microsoft Keyboard Creator: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/bb964665.aspx
But not sure if it does, what I want it to do (above).

Any tips/ideas?

Give SharpKeys a try. It is a registry based software, so it does not need anything to load in RAM besides OS files. I am in the understanding you are using a version of Windows.

It doesn't recognize any special TypeMatrix keys,
But I found KeyTweak it allows you to recognize (and map to) any key with the "full teach mode".
I'll keep searching, if anyone finds another, let me know!
