Describe the bug Captured these keys image which generated the following sequence

{+KC_LGUI}{+KC_F2}{-KC_LGUI}

and tried to use this sequence on another macro

image

Just to get a "Whoops Invalid keycode detected inside {} +KC_LGUI

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Go to M0, click Fullscreen, click ● record
  2. press CMD + F2 , release release ; click Stop, click Save
  3. Go to </> to get the keycode sequence. copy the sequence to clipbrd
  4. Go to M1, go to </> and paste .
  5. VIA app yells "Whoops Invalid keycode detected inside {} +KC_LGUI

Expected behavior VIA app should accept the copy/pasted sequence

Same thing here, It seems that any keyup/keydown sequence is rejected by the macro editor.

This seems to be happening for any keydown/keyup. I tried to do Alt+0163 for the pound sterling symbol and it complains about invalid keycode KC_LALT

{+KC_LALT}{KC_P0}{KC_P1}{KC_P6}{KC_P3}{-KC_LALT}

The workaround I'm following for now is to use the Windows on-screen keyboard to type the shortcut out while VIA is in recording mode. The code that it records in the textbox is exactly the same.

Any updates here? Im still suffering

shalva97 commented 1 month ago

okay, found a workwaround. For example you want a macro to change keyboard layout on MacOS, which is CTRL+Space

while recording press and release ctrl, then press and release Space and once again press ctrl and release. You will get something like this

Then remove extra key states by clicking X on top of the keys, so it will look like this

Same issue here. Just trying to create a macro to write ">" and "<" on AZERTY keyboard but I just can't figure out a way to make it work... Pretty annoying bug

I just found the solution, you have tu use NUBS special character to write "<" and use Shift with that key to write ">"
