Can't use (cmd|shift|option|ctrl) + Fn with MacBook Pro 2016 with Touch Bar #535
Comments
I am seeing this behaviour with other modifiers too such as cmd. It breaks a lot of keyboard shortcuts in IntelliJ for me. On the |
I have same problem. When will be this fixed? |
Checking the 'use all F keys as standard function keys' option seems to allow shift + F to work in programs like intellij. But touchbar functionality is in general broken when you try to use the standard function buttons like expose, brightness after expanding the standard touchbar. |
Same here. But https://medium.com/@geapi/permanent-function-keys-intellij-macbook-pro-w-touchbar-d6fc78781b90 worked for me. |
Having the same issue as OP with exactly the same configuration. Modifier keys don't work with function keys. Karabiner-Elements version is 0.91.8 macOS Sierra 10.12.5 (16F73) MacBook Pro (15-inch, 2016) |
Karabiner-Elements 0.91.8

Same. I tried the link @geoHeil provided, but it just showed the Fn 'keys', and their behaviour was the same, e.g. Shift+F6 causes the action F6 causes... Shift has no effect. Also tried what @dstandish said, but didn't change this. |
Same problem here :( |
👍 |
Same issue here, shortcuts like |
Following, cause I have the same issue. Modifiers don't work. |
@tekezo do you have any ETA to look at this? |
Same here. I have to go to Menu -> Edit -> Fill... in Photoshop instead of pressing Shift+F5. Most irritating. I had already done what @geoHeil suggested so it's not a fix - it only defines for which applications to show the function keys in the TouchBar by default. |
I searched (again) for an alternative solution and found a blog post about remapping keys with the |
Thank you very much! Now I don't need to choose between touchbar and Karabiner-Elements! |

I might add that you should not use macOS keyboard settings to change caps lock to do nothing, or this hidutil solution stops working. I guess the OS doesn't receive the key event or something. |
👍 for hidutil, also solved my problem. Btw, here : https://opensource.apple.com/source/IOHIDFamily/IOHIDFamily-247/IOHIDFamily/IOHIDUsageTables.h , in section KeyboardOrKeypad Page (0x07) can be found all valid usage ID’s. Helped me with kHIDUsage_KeyboardNonUSBackslash |
Yes, it took me some time debugging event to realise that I can't understand how § and ± qualify as |
@mutantcornholio Plus, setting the function keys to the default Touch Bar display and use all Fn keys as as standard, it worked on my IntelliJ. |
@kasecato @mutantcornholio doesn't work for me |
@gAmUssA You can check Karabiner EventViewer like below images.
|
Here's a gist that does what I want in hidutil: |
Confirming @mutantcornholio suggestion worked great! Thanks! Have some TP. |
confirming @mutantcornholio's solution works as well |
Guys, I just found that @mutantcornholio's solution has a drawback: the two screen brightness buttons now don't work without pressing the Fn button. Are you guys experiencing the same problem? Thanks! |
Yep, nothing's appear at EventViewer when pressing those is Karabiner-Elements is launched. Otherwise, works okay. |
@welladamm actually yes, I just assumed it was broken for another reason. My workaround is to use the brightness slider instead. |
This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions. |
After enabling modification of the untitled keyboard as @mutantcornholio suggests, I had to do one more change for F1 to work as normal instead of lowering the brightness. I had to uncheck the “Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys” checkbox at the bottom of the Function Keys tab (the opposite of @kasecato’s setting). This is with my “Touch Bar shows” setting at “App Controls with Control Strip”, so that the F1 key only shows when I am already holding Fn. |
While the In the not too distant future nearly all Macbook Pro users will have a touch bar. If Karabiner doesn't work with the touchbar and key modifiers, then nearly all users won't be able to use it any more...? I would suggest to fix this issue in Karabiner, not just close it because of inactivity. |
I filed #1700 as a feature request to have that keyboard enabled by default. |
Thx, it‘s helpful for me! |
For example, when pressing Shift + F6, my app (WebStorm) acts as if only F6 were pressed and Shift is ignored completely.
Below is my only configuration:
