Type Key issue when mapping Num Lock key #151

Closed clementratel closed 5 years ago

Hi,

Seems there is some trouble with the "Type Key" feature, even I found workaround. I needed to map the Num Lock key of my laptop (to permanently disable it). When using the "Type Key" and hitting the Num Lock key, I received code "Special € (E0_45)". Mapping this key would have no effect at all on Num Lock. I used instead the "Special Num Lock (00_45)" from the sharpkeys list and then it worked.

No idea why Num Lock is sending the wrong scan code but you've done the right thing in selecting it in the available keys list. I can't hard code the E0_45 to reflect 00_45 because I'm pretty sure that Euro key is real.

Sorry for the confusion!
