Bug: remapping arrow keys and sixpack results inn numberpad keys being pressed. about kanata HOT 4 CLOSED

Can you try the winiov2 or scancode_experimental variants?

from kanata.

@jtroo Both of these variants fix the problem, the expected now happens. I wonder if NVDA is trying to use the same mechanism as Kanata to intercept keyboard input? Odd since it has an option to deal with input from other applications, I may have to see if this is the case and see what can be done so this issue doesn't arise in the future for others.

I don't think it's an issue with NVDA. It's a Windows issue with scancodes that have a variant that is extended and non-extended, when using virtual keys instead of scancodes for output.

Starting from 1.7.0 onwards the default kanata binary on Windows will be using scancode output.

@jtroo Good to here, I was not looking forward to getting back into Windows annoying accessibility stack. Thank you for your help, I am closing the issue as it seems that the problem is resolved.
