Space Pilot Pro - Print Screen and NX

Post by Matthew2323 »

I'm trying to set one of my Space Pilot Pro keys to utilize the "Print Screen" button. Since the function does not exist (that I can find) I tried to create a custom function. When I select "New" under Custom Functions and select the "Print Sreen" key is does not appear in the dialog box. (Other keys do appear when typed.)

Has anyone else tried to add this key and been successful?

I'm trying to add this while running NX 8.5 on a Dell laptop with Windows 7 (64-bit).

Thanks,
Matthew

Dear Matthew2323,

The 'Print Screen' Command is a Windows's GUI, Graphical User Interface Command. This is an application that does not make use of the input from our devices and so is not an application that uses our buttons for its commands. Only applications that make use of our devices would make use of mapping their commands to the buttons on our devices.

Sincerely,
Bryan
