I am trying to get an input key, e.g. A, to send the sequence LEFT-ALT+Enter.
I have tried using a Macro as well as direct mapping. Neither works for me. Monitor shows only the Enter being sent.
The target is PathPilot on Mint 17. Alt+Enter is used to open the MDI box. Doing that from a keyboard works fine (left or right ALT work)
Do I need to use Expressions?
Any advice please?
With mappings like these the A key will send the Alt and Enter keys simultaneously:
If it’s important that Alt is pressed before Enter then you can use a macro:
Post the configuration you’re using if you’re still having trouble getting it to work.
Neither of your suggestions worked, however it got me to try a few similar configurations and this one works although not entirely intuitive: Thank you so much for your help, greatly appreciated.
That suggests it matters that Alt is released after Enter. You can of course also do it with a macro.

And yes, that also works.
