Text of the page (random words):
yers each modifier combination is a separate layer ctrl alt shift win ctrl shift ctrl alt shift alt and so on the same physical key can have a different action on each layer ctrl e and ctrl shift e are entirely independent assignments bare keys app specific profiles only in a profile linked to a specific app you can assign bare keys with no modifier pressing f alone fires the action this only works when the linked app has focus so it does not interfere with normal typing elsewhere ideal for cad software games and tools where bare key macros are standard win key the windows key can be used as a modifier in the hotkey capture ui click the win button to add it to a combination win key combinations are captured and fired exactly like any other modifier layer right click options on assigned keys right click any assigned key on the canvas or card in list view to access rename duplicate copies the full payload including double press and hold config and clear with inline confirmation system shortcut conflicts keyfire overrides key combinations when it captures them avoid assigning combinations that windows uses globally such as win d ctrl alt del cannot be overridden by any application keyfire user guide keyfire app 06 mapping triggers mouse hotkeys bind modifier click combinations and side buttons to any action switch to the mouse tab to see a visual mouse diagram click any button to assign an action modifier layers work the same as for keyboard hotkeys screenshot slot mouse canvas mouse tab active with the silhouette visible modifier selector at the top and at least one assigned button highlighted available mouse triggers button description left click standard left mouse button right click standard right mouse button middle click scroll wheel press side 1 side 2 side buttons mouse 4 and 5 if your mouse has them scroll up scroll down scroll wheel direction fires once per scroll tick setting up a mouse hotkey 1 switch to the mouse tab 2 select your modifier layer ctrl alt shift etc 3 click the mouse button on the silhouette configure and save as normal bare mouse buttons assigning mouse buttons without a modifier is only supported in app linked profiles you would not want left click triggering a macro everywhere side buttons not firing if your mouse has manufacturer software logitech g hub razer synapse etc it may be translating side buttons to other inputs before windows sees them open the mouse software and set side 1 and side 2 to their default mouse button mapping then keyfire can see them keyfire user guide keyfire app 07 mapping triggers trigger modes one key can fire three different actions depending on how you press it every assignment can have up to three distinct actions on the same key fired by different press patterns single press tap the key action fires double press tap twice within the double tap window the double press action fires instead hold pro press and hold past the threshold default 350ms the hold action fires setting up double press 1 open any assignment in the action panel 2 click the double pill above the action editor 3 configure the double press action independently it does not have to match the single press type 4 save single press fires the first action double tap fires the second setting up hold pro the hold pill appears next to single and double when you open an assignment hold triggers fire after the key has been held past the configurable threshold 200ms to 700ms default 350ms in settings pro feature hold triggers require a pro licence without it the hold pill shows a lock icon and clicking it opens the upgrade modal free users can still configure single and double press triggers how hold detection works when you press a hold armed key keyfire starts a timer if you release before the threshold the single press action fires if assigned or the keystroke passes through to the focused app if you cross the threshold the hold action fires and the key release is suppressed double tap window the interval keyfire waits for a second tap before firing the single press action adjust in settings compatibility double tap window default is 300ms three actions on one key you can combine all three modes on one key for example f8 single type a string f8 double open an app f8 hold fire a macro cycle through the single double hold pills to configure each hold only key indicator keys assigned only to a hold action no single or double press show a small stopwatch glyph on the keyboard canvas this makes them easy to spot at a glance versus keys with a regular single press action keyfire user guide keyfire app 08 actions type text instantly type any string at the cursor position type text sends a fixed string to the active text field the moment you press the hotkey works in any application input method three methods are available the default works in most situations change it only if you run into issues method when to use global default whatever you have set in settings compatibility suitable for most apps direct faster good for apps that process keys directly games cad tools directinput clipboard pastes via clipboard most reliable in apps that intercept standard key input may briefly affect clipboard contents unicode and special characters type text supports full unicode if a character is not typing correctly in a specific app switch that assignment to the clipboard method games and directinput keyfire uses scancode mode injection by default so keystrokes are visible to games using directinput raw input or other low level input apis if a hotkey is being ignored by a specific fps or simulation game raise it as feedback most cases work without configuration keyfire user guide keyfire app 09 actions send hotkey fire a specific keypress or combo into the active window send hotkey fires a key combination into whichever application is in focus this lets you trigger an app s own keyboard shortcuts from a keyfire hotkey useful when an app s native shortcut conflicts with something you have assigned globally example your cad app uses ctrl f for a tool but you have already assigned ctrl f globally in keyfire bind keyfire s ctrl g to send hotkey ctrl f and keyfire sends it directly to the active window hold mode the hold mode toggle changes send hotkey behaviour the first press sends keydown only holding the key and the second press sends keyup releasing it useful for gaming and cad workflows that need a sustained key press screenshot slot send hotkey panel with hold mode action panel for a send hotkey assignment hold mode toggle visible show the tray icon in red held state while a key is held the keyfire tray icon turns red and the tooltip shows which key is being held the held key auto releases when you press the same hotkey again you press any non modifier key physically you pause keyfire you quit keyfire hold mode is for polling apps not text held keys via sendinput do not produce repeated characters windows only repeats hardware keypresses use hold mode for games and cad tools that poll key state not for generating repeated text repeat mode repeat mode sends the target key or mouse click repeatedly at a configurable interval first press starts repeating second press of the same trigger stops it other keypresses do not stop it only the original trigger hotkey toggles it off setting description interval milliseconds between each repeat minimum 50ms default 100ms while repeating the tray icon turns red and the tooltip shows the repeating key and interval repeating auto stops when you pause keyfire or quit the app hold vs repeat hold mode and repeat mode are mutually exclusive enabling one disables the other both work with keyboard keys and mouse buttons mouse button targets send hotkey supports mouse buttons left click right click middle click as targets in all three modes normal hold and repeat select a mouse button from the pill buttons below the capture field keyfire user guide keyfire app 10 actions open app url folder launch applications websites and folders instantly open app launches an installed application click browse to select the exe or type the path manually keyfire stores only the executable name not the full path making profiles portable across machines open url opens a url in your default browser include the full url with https works with websites app deep links and internal network addresses open folder opens a folder in windows explorer click browse or type the path manually supports environment variables like userprofile and appdata combining with macros need to open an app and immediately do something in it use a macro chain open app wait 500ms type text or press key to give the app time to load before sending input keyfire user guide keyfire app 11 actions macros chain multiple steps into a single keypress loop them if needed a macro is a sequence of steps that keyfire executes in order when you press the hotkey mix any combination of step types in a single macro screenshot slot macro step builder multi step macro with at least 3 different step types drag handles on the left step type labels the full width type text sub row the add step button at the bottom the loop toggle available step types the add step menu groups steps into categories record macro sits pinned at the top of the menu and run ahk script at the bottom category step types record macro records your keyboard and mouse then replays the sequence as a single step see the macro recorder page existing action trigger calls another macro or action up to 5 nesting levels text expansion fires an expansion by its trigger string type keys type text types a string at the cursor full unicode support dynamic text adds token replacement at fire time date time clipboard selection and formula tokens press key sends a keypress or combo copy to clipboard paste clipboard and select all send ctrl c ctrl v and ctrl a mouse click mouse sends a mouse click with separate down and up variants so you can script drags click at position moves the cursor to screen coordinates and clicks mouse scroll scrolls up down left or right by a set number of notches open play open app open folder and open url launch things mid macro with a monitor picker for where the window lands play audio file and play video file open a media file in your default player also with a monitor picker timing wait ms pauses for a set time wait for input pauses until a chosen mouse or key event wait for window pauses until a matching window is in the foreground window focus window brings an app to the foreground minimise window maximise window and resize window control a specific window minimise all and restore all act on every open window system change volume sets nudges or mutes the system volume control panel opens the windows control panel sleep computer lock computer log off and shut down computer perform the matching windows action run ahk script executes an autohotkey v1 or v2 script waits for completion before the next step building a macro 1 click a key on the canvas then choose macro as the action type 2 click add step and choose the step type 3 configure the step repeat to add more 4 drag the handle on the left of each step to reorder 5 click save macro looping below the input method row the loop section lets the macro repeat itself two modes count run n times in a row forever run continuously until you press esc or re press the trigger an optional delay between iterations smooths out fast loops press the same trigger again while a loop is running and keyfire cancels it stop a runaway loop three ways to stop a loop press esc re press the trigger that started it or pause keyfire from the tray forever loops also stop automatically if you quit the app cancelling any macro press esc at any point during a running macro to abort it this applies universally looped macros one shot macros recorded sequences long wait steps anything mid flight the macro stops at the next event boundary which is usually within milliseconds useful as a kill switch when a macro is running away or you just changed your mind long wait steps inside a macro are chunked so they honour the cancel request promptly rather than blocking for their full duration focus window pick window the focus window step brings an app to the foreground instead of typing a exe name manually click pick window a dropdown appears showing all currently running processes selecting one fills in both the process name and window title automatically wait for input pauses the macro until a specified mouse or keyboard event supported input types include left click press release right click and specific keys useful when a macro needs to wait for you to click somewhere before continuing system steps change volume can set an exact level from 0 to 100 increase or decrease by an amount or mute the native windows volume display appears so you can see the change land destructive steps ask first sleep computer log off and shut down computer show a confirmation dialog before they run so a mis fired macro cannot shut your machine down unprompted window steps minimise window maximise window and resize window each take a target window via the pick window dropdown leave the target empty to act on whichever window is in the foreground when the step runs resize accepts a width and height plus an optional new x and y position add delays after opening apps open app open folder and the media steps already wait for their window to be placed before the next step runs but if a macro types text before an app has finished loading the characters can still get dropped add a wait ms step of 500 to 1000ms after an open app step to give it time to settle fire trigger and fire text expansion these two step types call other keyfire actions from inside a macro useful for composing complex flows from smaller reusable units keyfire enforces a maximum of 5 nesting levels to prevent infinite recursion keyfire user guide keyfire app 11a actions macro recorder capture a sequence of real keystrokes and mouse actions then replay them exactly as you performed them the record macro step inside any macro lets keyfire capture a literal sequence of your input every keystroke mouse click drag scroll and movement is recorded with its original timing then replayed later as part of the macro useful for any flow you can perform faster by hand than by chaining individual steps in the editor screenshot slot recording pill the bottom centre recording pill showing event count and elapsed time with stop and discard buttons recording a macro 1 in the macro editor click add step and choose record macro at the top of the menu 2 click record the bottom
