Included Programming Software for Windows and OS X MacroWorks 3.1 for Windows features a wide range of macros including shortcuts to frequently used programs, folders, and files. Keyboard Mastro for Mac OS includes support for all of X-keys programmable keyboards. The joysticks, T-bar, Jog & Shuttle as well as some KVM models are excluded. Keyboard Maestro cannot control our LED’s either, however, users can change the LEDs on a Windows computer in Hardware mode. MacroWorks 3.1 is included as a free download with all X-keys USB devices. Keystrokes and combinations may also be written into the X-keys memory to emulate a USB keyboard or mouse function on any operating system. Use MacroWorks for Windows to take advantage of this feature. Application Specific Layers and Special Functions Using MacroWorks for Windows, each application on your system can have its own set of dedicated keys. This allows the same key to trigger different macros in different programs. For example, the Move tool shortcut in Photoshop is V but in Sketchup, it is M. Using an application specific layer, the same key will send V if Photoshop has focus and M if Sketchup has focus. An array of special functions including F13-F24 keys, multimedia commands (Play/Pause, Volume Up or Down, Previous or Next Track, etc.), Time and Date insert, and more are selected under the Functions tab in MacroWorks. Complex macros may be constructed and edited line by line including delays, repeats, and separate macros on press and release of an X-key.
