david, can you be specific? For example, there is no insert key on a MacBookAir, or any of the portable keyboards, so how do you map an "insert" key that doesn't exist? If you read my message carefully, you'll see that the procedure I am using, or thinking about using. Is this how its done? Specifics would be great, like which screens I need to get into and what buttons to press if not self-explanatory. Basically, just the "how to" of it.
Thanks for any help. On Mar 8, 2014, at 9:28 PM, David Taylor <e.david.tay...@icloud.com> wrote: > You can do the key remapping in Fusion's settings.
