Swap Option/Alt key for extra Control key?

I use the control key far more then I ever use the Option/alt key.
Is there any way (on either or both my MacBook Pro's keyboard, or my Slim Apple Blutooh keyboard that I can "change" the function of that option key to an extra control key? That way I can have one on both sides of the keyboard.
I've looked and the only thing I can find is something that tuned it into an extra return/enter key. But thats not what I want....but it is close. So there has to be a way to do it.
So any ideas?
Thanks,
Scott

THANKS!
That is exactly what I needed!
I can't believe I never found that before!
Its not as "light weight" or simple to use as I was hoping for, but I got it figured it out and now it is working great!
Thanks again!

  • Remapping PC Keyboard keys for volume control

    I got an XArmor keyboard because I love mechanical keyswitches. Works great with my Mac.
    However, I do miss having volume control.
    How can I remap keys like say Option->Apple->+ to be the increase volume key?
    The +, -, and enter keys on the numeric keypad would be great for volume control.
    The only software I found so far for doing this was very clumsy and unreliable: Sparks.

    Use the side edge volume controls.
    There's no keyboard controls that I know of, other than the # key might place your device on the Silent profile (or the top edge MUTE key )

  • Default values for confirmation control key

    Dear forum
    I am using a confirmation control key 0004 Shipping notification (standard SAP) in the Purchase order line item (created with ME21n).
    When I enter the confirmation data (with transaction ME22n) in the purchase order line item (confirmations tab), I have to type in delivery date, quantity and so on manually, which is standard.
    But, what if I want to copy the original delivery date and quantity from the line item in the order, and use this as default value for the line item confirmation data...is it possible somehow?
    The reason why I want to do this is for the user not having to go in and update this date manually all the time, but only when the confirmed dates/quantities differ from the desired delivery date and quantities in the purchase order line item. We are not on EDI or using Inbound deliverys for Purchase orders.
    Thanks
    Ola

    Hi,
    The Confirmation is nothing but the acknowledgement.So, its usually entered manuallly by the authorised User allowing follow on documents for Purchase Order.
    You can chesk once the customisation of Confiramtion control keys for automatic update indicator.
    Yes, you can use User Exit and develop with the help of ABAPERS.
    Hope it will help you.

  • What application do you use for extra/multimedia keys on the keyboard?

    Just curious on what applications there are available for all these extra keys manufacturers keep placing on keyboards, thankfully my keyboard only has a few extra and they aren't in the way. I've been using LinEAK for a while now but it doesn't seem to be maintained any more so I was wondering if there are any better alternatives.

    con wrote:I use Xmodmap to get the keys to work...then just assign them actions throuhg the global shortcuts in applications
    If youre not gettign any codes, dmesg or xev, turn of the computer switch to the PS/2 port youre using USB to connect the keyboard, USB hid driver hasnt got the functionality to give those extra keys scancodes and the devs dont seem willing to do anything about it...
    Follow the wiki hotkyes instructions and you cant go wrong, someone posted link to them earlier.
    Not wanting to sound rude, but if you had even bothered to read the thread you would have seen that the keys are working fine with xbindkeys, it's the process of autostarting xbindkeys with openbox that doesn't work.
    However, I've now started using the built in keybind function in openbox, though for some reason I can't execute mpc commands (ie: mpc stop), it just won't work. Instead I have to use Sonata (ie: sonata stop), could the reason be that mpc outputs info while Sonata does not when you use those commands?
    EDIT: It wasn't, I added the --no-status switch but it still won't work with mpc.
    Actually i read every post in this thread before posting, sorry if came of sounding mean (sv:elak) or something. Thought you just wanted to know what apps ppl were using to get multimedia keys to work (alot of ppl seem to be having problems with this), didnt realize that you wanted help. Maybe choose a better title if you dont want too confuse ppl like me. Again sorry:)

  • Bank Control Key for Spain

    Does anybody know how the Bank Control Key works for Spain.
    The help on the field LFBK-BKONT is not that helpful.

    Hi,
    This is a key for checking the combination of bank number and bank account number. Permitted length, characters and other country information for Spain are :
    The bank key has eight digits (4 positions stand for the bank number + 4 positions for the branch), is numerical, and without gaps.
    The bank account number has 10 digits, is numerical, and without gaps.
    The control key has 2 digits and is numerical.
    The bank key, the bank account number and the control key are checked simultaneously.
    If an error message is displayed when entering bank data, you should check whether data has been entered correctly. Here's a sample.
    Country           Bank key         Bank account       Control key
    Spain              00120345            0000067890            03
    Hope this helps. I had copied this from a note long back and can look for the actual note if required.
    Cheers !

    if we activate Control Key for Quality Management in Procurement in material master then wether we need also store a control key at the plant level for quality management in procurement.
    I am not clear about your question. But I guess you want to know about control key function. You activate "proc. asctive" box in QM view of material master, that is always at plant level. When you activate this, system automatically asks for a control key & cert type, thats mandatory field.

  • Control key for external process operation & internal.

    Hello,
    We have created one control key (ZP01) T code OP67.
    In the customisation (OP67) for "External processing" selection field we select "X" i.e. "Internal processed operation / Extarnal processing possible.
    If this field is blank then it is a "Internal operation"
    If this field is "+" Then it is external operation, in this case system creates the purchase requisition after release the production order.
    We want to know,
    If this field is with "X", then what is the proceedure to create the purchase requisition for external operation.
    Thanks in advance.
    Best regards
    Nilesh

    Hello Brahmankar,
    Thanks for your prompt detail reply.
    As per your suggestion already we have that setting for another controll key (PP02)
    It is std for SAP it is working fine, in this control key the setting is "+" for external proceesing in OP67.
    Now my requirement is instead of "+" I made it "X" i.e. Internal processed operation / External processing possible. In this case system is not generating purchase requisition after production order release.
    I want to know for external processing whether I have to create purchase requisition manualy?
    or any other process we have to follow?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Nilesh..

  • Detection of the control Key down when application start

    I need to detect if the control key is down when my program start. This program was created with CVI 5.0. Would you tell me how to do it under WIN 9x et NT/2000. Regards

    Normally, for any other key you could just set up a callback function for your panel and set up a case statement for the EVENT_KEYPRESS value for the event type. Or do the same on the initial control that has focus. However, this does not work for the control key, because it does not generate an EVENT_KEYPRESS. Therefore, giving you no option through the normal CVI user interface capabilities.
    Now, you might be able to detect the keypress through windows messaging if you use the function InstallWinMsgCallback found in the Programmer's Toolbox library (toolbox.fp in cvi\toolslib\toolbox) and set up a callback function to look for the message that the control key generates for a window. Other than that, you might have to use some Windows SDK functions, that wait for a keypr
    ess to happen.

  • Has anyone else had a control key act stuck?

    I couldn't type in my password the other day after some basic trouble shooting and calling Apple everyone was at their wits end.  Then I saw it, in the lower left of safari in the grey boarder it said "display a menu" a quick search on my phone showed me it was the control key.  After tapping this key a few times it went away. I currently have changed in the modifier keys section of the keyboard so caps lock is the control key and the control key functions are controlled by the caps lock.  interesting thing is that caps lock isn't on all the time, i.e. just like how the control key was acting.  I can't feel anything under the key, nothing has been spilled, the key works fine as CAPS LOCK, its just when the control is assigned to do control functions and only then, even assigning no action to it works.  should i reinstall the last update? should I reinstall the OS? I did a time machine back up too, that didn't fix it.

    Does it really matter whether anyone else has? If you have, that's a problem for you whether or not anyone else has experienced the same issue. Call Apple tech support or take the iPad to an Apple Store, if there's one in your area, and they'll replace the iPad unless it's determined that the problem was caused by some sort of accident rather than a factory defect.
