 Custom scripts for Karabiner Elements on MacOS.

 

## Scripts

### Use Function Keys as F1-12 in specified apps

`Use-F-Numbers-Selected-Apps.json`

This uses specified app bundles to switch the function keys to the F1 – F12 key without the need to press "fn".

This is particularly useful in cross platform and specialist apps.

Included in this script are the following:

- Vectorworks

- ETC EOS Nomad

- Premier Pro

- Photoshop

- After Effects

- Terminal

- Xcode

### Adobe Digital Editions Arrow Keys

`ade-arrow-fn.json`

Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) plays the MacOS Error sound (Boop) when navigating using the arrow keys.

For an easy way to page down in this app, the arrow keys are transformed into the arrow + fn. 

This makes navigating in this frustrating App slightly easier.

## Testing

Tested on: 

- Karabiner Elements v15.5.0

- MacOS v15.5 (24F74)

- ADE 4.5
