<h2 dir="auto">Feature Request for Keyboard Manager</h2>
<h3 dir="auto">Context</h3>
<p dir="auto">Hi, only recently came across PowerToys and already fond of the wealth of utilities present. Many thanks for making these available!</p>
<p dir="auto">Due to limited hand mobility, I’m heavily reliant on key-remapping and macros for keyboard interaction. As such, <a href="https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys">SharpKeys</a> and <a href="https://github.com/Lexikos/AutoHotkey_L">AutoHotkey</a> are ideal for remapping keys on a registry-level and scripting complex macros, respectively. I don’t expect Keyboard Manager to have feature parity with either of these dedicated solutions; I’m drawing inspiration from them. For example, AutoHotkey supports <a href="https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/KeyList.htm#mouse" rel="nofollow">mouse input</a> which is super-useful to me (worth raising a different feature request? :).</p>
<h3 dir="auto">Summary</h3>
<p dir="auto">As part of <strong>Remap shortcuts</strong>, I was surprised to find it could only remap to another shortcut starting with a modifier key. What about remapping shortcuts to another key‽ Such as <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>?</kbd> = <kbd>‽</kbd>. Or <kbd>Alt</kbd> + <kbd>Left | Right</kbd> = <kbd>← | →</kbd>.</p>
<p dir="auto">Additionally, as per the examples, I don’t even see any way to map to the chosen Unicode characters. Is there any plans to allow inclusion of the wider Unicode characters range?</p>
<p dir="auto">Thanks for your time, really appreciate it.</p>
