Remapping of NumPad actions (NumPadMinus)


 

I am trying to get away from using the mouse during a contest more than I absolutely need to.
I want to be able to zoom the focused Bandmap in/out by just pressing keys. From the docs I see that there are keys on a Number Pad (+ and -) that do just that.
The problem is that neither of my keyboards have Number Pads, so I was looking at remapping them to the Pg Up and Pg Dn which seem to be free.
The NumPadPlus command works fine when actioned by either PageUp or PageDown keys, but I cannot get the NumPadMinus command to work. What I have so far...
?
!! Active Bandmap Zoom +
PageUp NumPadPlus
!! Active Bandmap Zoom -
PageDown NumPadMinus
?
Maybe it is not possible.

Stewart,

Use NumPad- not NumPadMinus.

I saw that N3RD already solved your problem, but I have a question (just ignorance-powered curiosity).

I use the?Page-up/Page-down keys to control Morse speed.? Will your mapping into Bandmap Zoom functions eliminate the Morse speed function?? If yes, how would you control Morse speed?

(It might not matter to you, but I do mostly CW and I do not use a Bandmap.)

Hi Art,
?
Yes, I had spotted that, and you are right. It kills that functionality. I rarely do CW contests, SSB with the Bandmap is my MO.
