How do I remap key F11 to END+PrintScreen?

20 September 2015, 16:46

I want to make it so that if I am playing a game and I press the F11 key it will automatically save a screenshot. How do I do this? From the GUI menu I click on "Input," then I click on the drop-down menu on the top-left and I choose "Configuration #1." I scroll down to F11, which currently has an Input Target of "<none>." I click that F11 row, and there are two drop-down menus below: a "1" and "<none>". What do these mean? The first drop-down menu has a choice of 1-8 and the second it looks like you can choose which key is the remapped one. Is that correct?

Simply remap F11 to "Save screen (file)" input event, it is somewhere bottom of large input target list. (END+Printscreen is built-in mapping to same function)

1-8 are sub items. Allows more than one input target mapped to same input source (for example key press and release to single button)

When I go to the GUI and go to Output and click on Save Screenshot it saves the image file as expected. But when I press F11 nothing happens.

I think I have the mapping correct: when I go to Input, "Configuration #1" is active, and when I scroll under "Input source" to F11, the Input target is "Screenshot (file)" as expected. Is there anything else I may have missed?

It should not need anything else. You can test that remapping works by mapping F11 temporarily to some other event (that is more "visible" than screenshot, for example some Amiga key, quit or reset etc)

Attach you config if nothing works
