configuring custom keyboard with the shift key

[djdubc]

i have an issue with the shift key where i would add a command with it and it works while i am using Cross if i dont close it, but as soon as i close and reopen to verify the shift commands they do not work. Ive tried several times to see if i made mistakes but i get the same result! can someone please help a brotha out?

You could use mine....

What's the other key you combine with the shift. Might be the combination somehow.

well i use the the shift key with !@#$(1234) equaling my cue points for player 3 and %^&*(5678) for cue points on player 4 it works flawlessly when i dont close Cross but as soon as i close and reopen and try to use them...HOUSTON WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

try re mapping them to cap lock and the # ,,used this in a earlier mapping for control of head phone volume and gain volumes ,, ,,try using the numeric key pad , ohh you might be on a laptop ,,, ,,not shure why its not sticking ,,should have to re map key board every time ,,

These are the default for removing locators 1-8 for the active deck.. Works for me; just '&'
doesn't work but that seems a different problem as this doesn't work in more situations (outside Cross).

You may want to try a different mapping source (min PC/L 2.3 vid)

:cool: try re mapping them to cap lock and the # ,,used this in a earlier mapping for control of head phone volume and gain volumes ,, ,,try using the numeric key pad , ohh you might be on a laptop ,,, ,,not shure why its not sticking ,,should have to re map key board every time ,,

My laptop is a 17 inch so i do have the similar keyboard style to a desktop... i will try the way you suggest mr clark but i shouldn't have to remap EVERYTIME

i will try a different scheme to see if that works but the way i have it setup......it should work with no issue unless thats the way Cross is setup for the keyboard scheme

I did mean to say it should work as the key combinations are in use by default.
If you use the mapping editor in Cross you should even get a warning before change is saved when it was already assigned.

thats the thing i dont even get a warning when i use the editor

i think i got it now......mr clark u were right the number keyboard did the trick , but the shift function is a little messed up that has to be fixed everything works like it should be
