Steps to reproduce

Unsure if this is a bug or feature limitation or a user error.

✔️ Expected Behavior

I want to map: 'Right Alt key+numpad[0]+numpad[1]+numpad[4]+numpad[9]+space' to a key.

❌ Actual Behavior

KM only seems able to handle TWO keys (Right Alt+one numpad key).

Is there a way to achieve this mapping?

No problem! Can I just clarify: do you want to output "• " when you press a particular key combination? For example, when you press Ctrl+B in your text editor, it would output that text?

If so, here's a step-by-step:

1. Open PowerToys Settings and go to the Keyboard Manager settings page:

2. Select Remap a shortcut:

3. Select + Add shortcut remapping:

4. Select the Edit button, which looks like a pencil:

5. Press the combination of keys you want to trigger the action, e.g. the Ctrl and B keys:

6. Select OK and then choose "Send Text" in the Action drop-down:

7. Type the text you want to appear in the "Keys" text box, i.e. your bullet point and space:

8. Select OK.

9. Test your shortcut. By default it should work in every application:
