Having both of these available is nice, but I don't need separate keys for them. On Apple keyboards there is a \"fn\" key, and pressing fn+⌫ is the same as ⌦. The fn key also affects the behavior of F1–F12, making them \"pure\" function keys for programs to interpret, instead of activating special features like brightness adjustment.\r\n\r\nBut I can't figure out how to add a fn key to my keymap. I didn't see any \"modifier\"-like constant defined for it, and `xev` doesn't show any events when it's pressed/released. However, the OS X \"Keyboard Viewer\" is able to show when the fn key is pressed and released, and the \"EventViewer\" included in [Karabiner](https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/) shows a FlagsChanged event with code 0x3f for the fn key.\r\n\r\nDoes anyone know if there's a way to do this, or should I just \"fake it\" using a custom layer that has the keys I want?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jackhumbert/qmk_firmware/issues/comments/224148730","html_url":"https://github.com/jackhumbert/qmk_firmware/issues/378#issuecomment-224148730","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/jackhumbert/qmk_firmware/issues/378","id":224148730,"user":{"login":"ezuk","id":1092548,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1092548?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk","html_url":"https://github.com/ezuk","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ezuk/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-06-07T02:27:25Z","updated_at":"2016-06-07T02:27:25Z","body":"Looks like this is as resolved as this is going to get! :) Closing it for now.
