I seem to be having trouble getting Scroll Lock to be a trigger for a macro. I know how to send it (key J) but not to detect if it has been pressed or not.
Didnt work because in the trigger entry dialog, it interprets J as the letter j not as the ScrollLock command
The second option works but I thought it would be better to find out what the status of the Scroll Lock key is - Many keyboards have a light indicator for that. Is there a way for QM to determine that? If so, then I can run a context-sensitive toggle.
but since I want this to be true all-the-time trigger, I took the "break" statements out. It worked but CPU usage monitor went way up to around 50%. Normal triggers don't do that so there should be a better way.
Anybody have any ideas on how to make ScrollLock Key into a regular keyboard trigger?
I never used that window you showed in your screengrab. I feel kind of stupid. I was trying over and over to enter it into the regular dialog form Properties--Triggers->Keyboard but it wouldn't work via that route.
Thanks so much.

I can enter Scroll Lock in Properties, like any other key. If you can't, maybe some program uses the key, or the key is unavailable for some other reason. Then the trigger will not work, even if entered directly into the toolbar as J letter.
