Print screen on button spacemouse pro (Windows 10)

Post by GerardfromMoba »

Is there a way to add Print sc to a button on my space mouse pro?
I tried to add it as Macro, but instead of filling the macro field, a screenshot is made..

I found a workaround
If I press Windows+shift+S a screenshot will be made with the snipping tool. That is exactly what I want my button to do.
But if I press Window+shift+S while recording the macro, the [Press S] will not be registered, instead a screenshot is made.
I made an export of my settings and edited the XML file as following:

<MacroEntry>
<ID>Print screen</ID>
<Sequence>
<KeyPress>E3</KeyPress>
<KeyPress>E1</KeyPress>
<KeyPress>16</KeyPress>
<KeyRelease>E1</KeyRelease>
<KeyRelease>E3</KeyRelease>
<KeyRelease>16</KeyRelease>
</Sequence>
</MacroEntry>

Then I imported the settings and now it works :D
