Dear Folivora makers,
would it be possible to ask for a toggle option for the Hyper Key function (like a regular Caps Lock)? This would facilitate a highly specialized user case involving using the Mac keyboard as a piano keyboard with Dorico 6.
Sincerely, Øystein
Here is a toggle preset:
toggle-capslock.bttpreset (14.3 KB)
When pressing capslock first it enables hyperkey, when pressing it again it disables hyper key again.
It works by
1.) Remapping the default capslock to do nothing:
2.) A key sequence with an if condition depending on whether modifier keys are pressed or not:
That's pretty clever
But, mmh, sometimes these setups don't work for me. Either a modifier remains pressed or something else goes wrong. Maybe it's different for others.
BTT has the ingenious feature of blocking the keyboard. So if you don't necessarily need all these modifiers ... with block/unblock the keyboard everything always works perfectly for me. And you can do pretty much the same and even more, because several letters can be used as a trigger.
Just saying 
I am unsure how blocking the keyboard would help me here. Maybe you could point me to some examples or something?
I shouldn't have posted that. Ignore it. Have you tried Andreas' preset? That's a clever solution. If it works for you, great.
