I just purchased a kinesis advantage and would like to remap the "delete" key (delete character right of cursor) to [shift] [Back Space] using [prgrm] [f12 Remap]. This failed as [Shift] is now performing the delete functionality. Is there a way to use modifiers when doing a remap?

As I'm using the keyboard on mac os x(10.9.5), I'm also interested to know whether I can reach a similar effect by modifying mac mappings.

Remapping only works for single key actions, you cannot map key combinations using this feature. To map a key combination to a single key, you need to use the macro feature.

In this case, you would do:

  1. Press Progrm + F11
  2. Press Shift + BackSpace
  3. Press Delete
  4. Press Progrm + F11

  • I was struggling to remap a key that was only accessible via shift as well, and this helped me a lot. I'd forgotten about macros..
