Hi Zynh, and so glad you love your UHK!

It's not possible to enable or disable the num lock state of the operating system. You can only toggle this state with the num lock scancode.

If you want to implement a virtual num lock layer on your UHK, it's worth using non-num lock number scancodes, so the state of the num lock won't interfere with the function of these keys.

The crux of the question, Is there a way to lock numlock to on? or possibly turn it on in $onInit and not have to worry about it? or even just have an indicator of whether or not it is on without testing the keys?

Both Agent and the UHK firmware is developed in the open, so you can modify them any way you want. But you shouldn't need to delve into the source due to the myriad of configuration options of Agent regarding the UHK mouse functionality. Please make sure to subscribe to our monthly newsletter. I'd like to include a mouse demo video into our next newsletter.

Thanks for the kind words. Yes, I have also seen that picture. The thing is that I just have to see it with my own eyes; Because this could potentially be a game changer for me but it is also quite a big investment for me. Also I would like to ask you: If I hypothetically would figure out some way in which the mouse layer could be improved even further, do I have the means to do that myself then, since Agent is open source? In that case I'd be happy to help if I could...

Thanks for explaining your use case, and sorry to hear about your shoulder pain! The mouse layer is not a perfect substitute for all-day heavy-duty mouse use, but it's surprisingly powerful for what it is. So much so that it's even possible to create digital art with it. A mouse layer demo will come soon.

Awesome! Thanks so much for the reply Laszlo. I have extreme shoulder pain and I cannot use the mouse at all so if I could use the mouse layer for surgical media editing stuff that would be freaking amazing.

Will do!
