If only I could access them with it running…įilco Majestouch 2 Tenkeyless: This USB native, non-programmable keyboard has Caps Lock and Scroll Lock lights, but no Num Lock. Nothing I couldn't resolve with my own device_if complex rules in Karabiner, however. The lock light behaviour is a little different on different keyboards. Hooking up several keyboards, like a crazy person, I can report how this almost works. So how about it? Can we get commands to turn on and off the Num Lock and Scroll Lock lights in Karabiner? I'd use them to show me layer state, like I just mentioned.

But again I'd really like a light on the keyboard (which always has one already!) to warn me which mode I'm in. I toggle it on and off with the Num Lock key. I have rules to convert my fullsize keyboards' numpads into a virtual mouse, with diagonals and wheel scrolling all setup on those many keys. And why not the Scroll Lock light as well, on all those fullsize keyboards which have all three?Īnother trick I play with numpads is using them for mouse control. I'd just love to be able to send it commands for myself. But it would be much nicer to have the LED on the keyboard light up when this mode of mine is engaged. I can, and do, make my own numpad layer in Karabiner. Well, I'd like to fix this.īesides, Apple did exactly the same on the aluminium PowerBooks: Sadly, you get neither on the Mac: no numbers and no light. This works great in Windows, where the LED inside the Num Lock key will shine when engaged. You can see the front legends on the image above. This tenkeyless keyboard has an integrated numpad (like the IBM SSK and indeed my PowerBook) with U I O becoming 4 5 6 etc.

But I would like to be able to control those two LEDs on PC keyboards from Karabiner, for my own purposes.

I know the Mac has no Num Lock or Scroll Lock modes.
