Idea: Add modifier key combos to the Basic key list (grouped with the existing single-key modifiers)
Expand the Basic key list to include common modifier combinations (⌘⌥, ⌘⌃, ⌥⌃, ⌘⌥⌃, Hyper, etc.) as default/pre-built keys. That way, Actions can be built by selecting a single modifier combo instead of adding each modifier one by one.
Productivity gains + improved UX
Hyperkey ‘Actions’ reduced from 9 steps —> 3 steps
This would remove 16 steps from the Framer preset found on Input
Remove need for redundant tedious steps
Optimize most common use case format (modifier[s] + key)
Consistent process for most common use-case regardless of modifier key combo
Reduce repetitive setup at system level
Better readability + debugging
Actions are easier to understand at glance (good for community)
Easier to debug, revise in future
I confirmed that this method sends the expected key codes via Karabiner Event viewer.
i.e. Sample action below sends 5 down keys following by 5 up keys.
