Can't remap <> key (this is NOT ,< or .>!)

[Martamima]

I am trying to map the key on my keyboard that types < and > to Special:Left Windows (E0_5B. But when I try to add it to the left column, I get either ,< or .> - but NOT <>

Example:

I understand that the first remapping shown above is not what I want (the second works fine) - in fact messes me up. But I can't find Key:<> in the left column. Can someone help? Is it one of the "Unknown:" keys? Do I need to figure out about Dip switches on my (OmniKey/Ultra) keyboard first? The key reliably types < and > - I used it to type this. Thanks in advance.

(The second remapping, of the stand-alone * key, works just fine.)

There are several things with the above, first and foremost is that there is no < or > key on any keyboard I've seen. The whole key gets remapped with this technology: to get < you are actually typing Shift+,

The above setting will remap the , key to Left Windows successfully. When you try using Shift+, you are trying to type Shift+Windows which I believe does nothing. At least it doesn't do anything on my keyboard, when I use the actual key.

There is no way to remap "half" a key or a modified key with this tech: the whole key gets remapped and then any modifiers get applied to that. If your physical keyboard has a dedicated key for < and > I have no idea what the scancodes would be, because such keys don't typically exist in the 103-key keyboard, much like how I have a =, (, and ) key on one of my keyboards - Windows doesn't know what to do with it.

HTH!

I'm sorry you can't do something about this.  It really IS a real key, not even a custom one, but I guess not all that common.Best, MarthaOn Sep 26, 2017 5:30 PM, Randy <notifications@github.com> wrote:Closed #33. —You are receiving this because you authored the thread.Reply to this email directly, view it on GitHub, or mute the thread.
