Additional number pad keyboard and keyboard macros
Posted: Sat Apr 24, 2021 12:01 pm
Hello, I am currently considering whether to place an additional numeric keypad between the space mouse and the keyboard.

I work a lot with keyboard macros, so that the majority of commands are called up with the left hand via the keyboard and the right hand remains mainly on the mouse. However, there are a few work steps where the right hand constantly switches back and forth between the mouse and the numeric keypad, e.g. when dimensioning sketches and for all functions that require numeric input.
Has anyone tried using an additional numeric keypad?
What about the keyboard macros that you have on the "normal" numeric keypad? Are they also started when you press the corresponding key on the additional numeric keypad?
