•But it could work in theory with two differents keypad product (and probably require a lot of planning too 😅 ).

•Hi Deevad, I just want to point out that USB VIDs are not unique to every keyboard but every product at best and every product that uses a certain microcontroller at worst.
That said I'm not sure what a better solution would be 😀 Just keep it in mind that someone could theoretically lose the draw and have two of the same VIDs

•Great!
Also not sure why I called you deevad haha 😀

•This is freaking awesome, David! Thanks!
I'm intrigued what editing and motion graphics things I could do with this idea...

•Also available in Debian and Ubuntu, but not the latest version, I suppose.
It can also assign keycombos and keyboard sequences to keys. Super cool tool!

•I'm also using a similar setup in Blender, and the nice thing there is that you can use any key as a modifier, so 0+keys can be used for example for additional stuff.

•And oddly enough the Delete key starts Firefox for some reason 😁

•that is a nice idea…
now I'm thinking about if it were possible to use a bluetooth one as a remote for #HomeAssistant…

•I also got feedback about an utility 'input-remapper' that makes all of the setup easy with a GUI. So it should work with bluetooth keypad as well following the same method. I updated the article.

•Nice. Thanks for the evdev writeup (and FWIW, the package name in Arch-alikes is 'evtest' instead of 'evdev'). I knew that kind of thing was possible, but had never put in the time to figuring it out.
And the paintjob is fun. I bet doing it that way actually helps burn the connection into your brain, too.

•This is great, nobody should have to buy Stream Decks and the like!
I got myself a FaunchPad and a Butter Stick from gboards.ca a while back for similar purposes, but they seem to be down. :/ They offered some affordable small keyboards runnig QMK!
David Revoy
•I just tested the setup with a https://www.8bitdo.com/zero2/ (it has a keyboard mode that evtest or input-remapper catches); because it is wireless and its size, it's a good mini remote command for shortcut. I think I'll paint mine this week-end. 😆

•Génial ! C'est tout ce qui manquait pour vraiment profiter du mode tablette du thinkpad.
Merci!

•@raghukamath 😉 Cool!
Here I'll customize also an https://www.8bitdo.com/zero2/ gamepad I have. I saw the event listed on evtest this morning. Because it is super small and wireless (and also less buttons), this one will be for my desktop computer, when I have my left hand in a position not on the keyboard or the shortcut keys of the tablet.

•@yoyunix Thanks for sharing this tool!
But I think I found the ultimate tool for macro: the one I tested this morning https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper thanks to the comment of Moini (and added it to the article, you probably saw it). It's X11/Wayland compatible, has a GUI , presets and can also do complex macro (even mixing keyboard and mouse click, or macro with 'wait' between actions so I can do combo of shortcut keys.

•cooool, j'avais pas vu passer cet article 🙂
Moi j'utilise les touches les plus à droite de mon mini clavier MIDI (bon du coup je les ai pas décorées vu que ça me sert aussi de vrai clavier de piano, mais bon), avec un script qui map le signal MIDI vers une combinaison de touches reconnue dans Inkscape (annuler, changer d'outil, etc.).
