PAUSE (i.e. PAUSE/BREAK) Does Nothing

Closed this issue · 1 comments

The PAUSE/BREAK key is used for various things in Windows (e.g. Alt-Pause to stop execution in SSMS, Ctrl-Alt-Pause to toggle RDP full-screen, Win(Super)-Pause to open System Properties).

The P key in Layer 1 is mapped to PAUSE but it doesn't seem to do anything. For example, using Super-Right Ctrl-Right Shift-P doesn't bring up System Properties.

I've tried changing this:

            "layers": {
                "0": {
                    "key": "P",
                    "label": "P"
                },
                "1": {
                    "key": "CONS:PAUSE",
                    "label": "PAUSE"
                }
            }

To this:

            "layers": {
                "0": {
                    "key": "P",
                    "label": "P"
                },
                "1": {
                    "key": "PAUSE",
                    "label": "PAUSE"
                }
            }

But it fails to compile.

I'm using a Kira with Configurator 1.0 after flashing latest firmware and loading latest drivers.

What am I missing?

I wondered if the keys to access Layer 1 were getting in the way so I remapped the PgDn key in the upper-right corner to PAUSE on the BASE layer. Things work when configured this way.

I've been playing around with using the PgUp/PgDn keys on the numeric keypad with NumLock off so I think this will work for me.
