Some keys don't fire up #22

Hope this is the best way to ask it:

My keyboard has a key to fire up a calc app and I want to remap it. Its vk code is:

It happens with that specific key code but could affect another ones like that

And get me the following log:

2017-12-14 10:57:04:679 [KBD]: RAW message: message WM_KEYDOWN, key code 183, extended 0, flags 2, makecode 0, direction UP, keyboard handle 0

The last line comes from ukeylogservice.pas line 97, AssignDevice function right after calling AssignDeviceInLogRange and trying to pull the key from pile and store on pKS.DeviceHandle

Not sure if it's the expected behavior or if there's an intention to get this kind of keys working

What's exactly the issue? You want to use the key as trigger for lua callback and it doesn't work? Or you want to press this key from your lua code? Can you share lua script? BTW better to discuss in forum until we're clear there's fix/improvement needed.

trigger it to lua callback, openning a thread there though

This problem still exists. For some reason mediakeys like volume down and volume up have no keyboard handle for them so we are unable to use them at all.

Yes, those media keys can't be used as triggers and supporting that is not planned (maybe not even possible)
