Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

Hello,
The simplest approach for now is to plug in a windows style USB keyboard.

 Hi Megan,
 
 A new version of Karabiner is being developed for Sierra. Currently 
 however, you have to remap the key by creating a configuration file 
 manually. Here is the info in case you’d like to give it a shot: 
 https://github.com/tekezo/Karabiner-Elements 
 
 
 Until it’s released, I’ve gone back to using the accent key as my screen 
 reading key as E.T. has suggested. But I really do miss having the caps 
 lock key working as the screen reading key.

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Jonathan Mosen 
I've taken a read of what's available about the new Karabina Elements, as I'm 
really keen to get this functionality back. I wasn't able to work out how to 
create a configuration file that remaps the capslock key. If just one of us 
could get to the bottom of the way to do this, we could make the config file 
available. I've written to the developer but haven't had an answer as yet.

2016-09-24 Thread Grant 
Hi Traci,

I don’t see why not as this is exactly the kind of use case for Karabiner. But 
I’m going to wait until the Sierra version is a little more mature before 
giving it a go as it’s only in the pre-release stage and everything has to be 
edited manually in configuration files. On their website, there is info that 
you can read through to learn how to build the configuration files.

Hi, would this manual remapping work to remap the right command key into right

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Grant 
Hi Scott,

Unfortunately not, the caps lock key is not passed directly through to a 
virtual machine unless you use a third-party utility to remap it to something 
else. A few of us were using a couple utilities called Karabiner and Seal to do 
this, but those do not yet function under Sierra.

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread Grant 
Hi Megan,

A new version of Karabiner is being developed for Sierra. Currently however, 
you have to remap the key by creating a configuration file manually. Here is 
the info in case you’d like to give it a shot: 
https://github.com/tekezo/Karabiner-Elements 


Until it’s released, I’ve gone back to using the accent key as my screen 
reading key as E.T. has suggested. But I really do miss having the caps lock 
key working as the screen reading key.

Why wouldn’t you just use sharp keys?  Is that not effective for the changes 
you mention?

Re: Have any VMWare fusion users found workarounds for remapping their caps key now that Karabiner and Seal don't work on Sierra?

2016-09-24 Thread E.T. 

Megan,
   I am not yet running Sierra. Unless the scheme changed in the latest 
Fusion, you can remap the NVDA key in VMware Fusion settings. I remapped 
to the accent key which is above the capslock key.
