MTT supports all standard characters, numbers, and symbols. In addition MTT supports non-displaying keys, calculator keypad, and virtually any combination of keys you can imagine(Ctrl+C+P). MTT even supports system level keys(Alt+Tab, Alt+F4, Ctrl+F4...). Our best suggestion is try to create a custom key with the combination you desire and see if it's recognized. For a complete list of keys see below.
Uppercase characters are a combination of Shift plus the key. MTT detects the actual keys you press, not the results. For example, MTT detects the "$" symbol as "Shift+4" where both the shift and 4 keys have to be pressed together. Capital "A" is "Shift+A" where lowercase "a" is the "A" key. Some keyboards layout their special characters ifferently than others. No problem, you can adjust MTT to detect that your keyboard requires pressing the "Shift+6" combination for the "$" sign. The pre-built keys in MTT use a standard 101 keyboard layout.
The Num Lock key makes a difference as to what
keys are detected when using the calculator keypad. If Num Lock is ON then the
keypad will work just like the calculator you would expect. If it is off MTT
will detect the keys as "Home", "End", etc.
It allows you to use the keypad any way the keypad was designed to work. The calculator
key * is "Multiply" not * symbol(Shift+8). Keypad numbers are prefixed with the # symbol so you know which
number to press(keypad or keyboard).
MTT attempts to detect any key your system says has been pressed. The following keys have been confirmed. You might not even have some of these keys on your keyboard. MTT supports combinations of any keys it detects. If the key you need is not listed it is probably still supported...try it.
