<h1 dir="auto">Summary of the new feature/enhancement</h1>
<p dir="auto">My laptop vendor didn't included simple media keys on keyboard. I use PT to create shortcuts to virtual keys like Media Play/Pause, Volume Up/Down.</p>
<p dir="auto">In Keyboard Manager there are two options: Remap Keyboard (key to key) and Remap Shortcuts (key combination to key combination). But when I try to create shortcut like this:</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Ctrl + Alt + Up =&gt; Volume Up<br>
Ctrl + Alt + Down =&gt; Volume Down<br>
Ctrl + Alt + Right =&gt; Media Play/Pause</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I always get an error <code class="notranslate">Shortcut must start with a modifier key</code> over target shortcut key. But in this case, there's no modifier key needed. So I end up with same combinations with Ctrl, as they work ok:</p>
<blockquote>
<p dir="auto">Ctrl + Alt + Up =&gt; <strong>Ctrl</strong> + Volume Up<br>
Ctrl + Alt + Down =&gt; <strong>Ctrl</strong> + Volume Down<br>
Ctrl + Alt + Right =&gt; <strong>Ctrl</strong> + Media Play/Pause</p>
</blockquote>
<p dir="auto">I would like to define shortcuts (especially for media keys) without needing to fake shortcut with Ctrl.</p>
<h1 dir="auto">Proposed technical implementation details</h1>
<p dir="auto">I think the right side of shortcut shouldn't require modifier key. Even standard keys can be mapped as destination without modifier - if someone want to type <code class="notranslate">X</code> by pressing Ctrl + Alt + Shift + z, this should be allowed.</p>
<h1 dir="auto">Summary of the new feature/enhancement</h1>
<p dir="auto">Ability to remap a single key (² for example, sleeping in the top left corner of my KB), and assign it for example to alt+space, in order to open powertoys run, or to "open a new terminal", or whatever</p>
