G-Series Gaming Keyboards

Hi, interested in getting a G510, but I would like to know whether the G keys can map Alt+Tab for easier task switch?

Also, is there a user manual for G510 to download?

Thanks.

hi ..

1. ALT-TAB .. yes you can ..

record a macro (macro recorder) using delays (checkmark the box), assign it to a G-Key (drag it to the G-key)

(NOTE: the delay while TAB is down must be approx. 20-50ms to take effect - maybe even longer. you can edit it manually after recording by rightclicking the delay!)

2. MANUAL .. what for??  (sorry this is a running gag .. unfortunately there is none)

Be aware of the pitfall of Alt-Tab as a macro.   If you have a profile activated when a specific program runs, when you alt-tab out, the profile will deactivate not allowing you to Alt-Tab again.  You'll either need the profile to be default, and not have a profile associated with any of the programs you alt-tab through, or you'll have to make the profile persistent.

Thanks. I just want to read the user manual before deciding to buy.
