Types of Mapped Key Actions in ISBoxer

Mapped Key Actions, as the name suggests, go in Mapped Keys. All Mapped Key Actions are created by right clicking on Actions in the desired Step of a Mapped Key, and finding the appropriate "New <action>" menu item.

The tables shown below are under construction. They will be filled in shortly, but most of the options should be self-explanatory.

Keystroke

A Keystroke Action is capable of sending a given keystroke to any particular Target. The keystroke may include modifier keys (Shift, Alt, Ctrl). The keystroke does not have to be the same as the Hotkey on the Mapped Key, and does not have to have the same modifiers as the Hotkey, even for the current window. For example, if your Hotkey happened to be Shift+Alt+Q, and it was instructed to send F to a Target that includes the current window, the F will be interpreted as F, and not Shift+Alt+F.

Keystroke Action Options
Target The Target of the action -- the recipient of the Key combination
Key combination The combination of keys that will be received by the Target. The key combination will be interpreted by the game itself, so make sure to select a key combination that the game knows how to interpret (in other words, probably not a key on a G11, G13, G15, X-keys device, Nostromo, etc).

Key Map State

A Key Map State Action can be used to change the state of a Key Map on any particular Target. A Key Map can be toggled, turned on, or turned off. If a Key Map is already enabled, and is set On by a Key Map State Action, all Mapped Keys in the Key Map will be reset to Step 1.

Key Map State Action Options
Target The Target of the action

Light

A Light Action can be used to change the state of an M-light on a G-15 or G-11 keyboard, on any linked Computer. A light can be toggled, turned on, or turned off.

Mapped Key State

A Mapped Key State Action can be used to change the state of a Mapped Key on any particular Target. A Mapped Key can be toggled, turned on, or turned off. If a Mapped Key is already enabled, and is set On by a Mapped Key Action, it will be reset to Step 1.

Send Next Click

A Send Next Click Action can be used to trigger a Send Next Click to any given Target. Send Next Click has the option to block the click from the current window, also known as KVM Mode. Send Next Click will temporarily enable Mouse Repeat to a given target (also includes modifier keys Shift,Alt,Ctrl), until you click and release any mouse button.

Window Zoom Action

A Window Zoom Action can be used to set the Zoom level on a non-main window (it must not be the active window, and Swap must be enabled in the Window Layout). This may be useful in conjunction with KVM Mode.

Window Zoom Action Options
Target The Target of the action
Zoom level


World of Warcraft Macro

A World of Warcraft Macro Action is exactly the same as a Keystroke Action, except that when exported, the ISBoxer Addon for World of Warcraft will generate a Macro and assign it to the given Keystroke. It is important to note that because it is the same as a Keystroke Action, if the same key combination is used for different Macros for any given Character, the same thing will necessarily happen each time the key combination is received by the game. Only one Macro can be assigned to any given key combination for any given Character.

See World of Warcraft Macro Action in the Special ISBoxer configuration for World of Warcraft page for more information on the capabilities of World of Warcraft Macro Actions, including the ability to generate different Macros depending on the Characters in play. Also note that any World of Warcraft Macro Action that uses generation conditions based on Action Target Groups will use the initial Action Target Groups assigned to the Character, and will not be re-generated if using a Target Group Action.

World of Warcraft Macro Action Options
Target The Target of the action -- the recipient of the Key combination
Key combination The combination of keys that will be received by the Target. The key combination will be interpreted by the game itself, so make sure to select a key combination that the game knows how to interpret (in other words, probably not a key on a G11, G13, G15, X-keys device, Nostromo, etc).
