Hello, Is there a way to Cycle key presses for example when i press a key it will then change to another binding ready for the next time i press it so when pressing the key it will look like this: 1 2 1 2 1 2 Or did they leave this out of there software so they can sell the game board that has a secondly key press option, Witch is something i find unusable unless they add a click at the end of the key press to activate the second key. Lets hope i am just being over sceptical and there is a software answer to this :) Thanks!

I was looking at how to do the same thing, and came across this thread. Of course, 2 years have passed, and no answer, which suggests Synapse can’t do this - but I kept looking and found out how to do it.

Basically the process follows the same methodology as is explained here: https://www.reddit.com/r/razer/comments/1c0p2bx/here_is_how_to_make_a_true_toggle_key_on_razer/ but it works with toggling between two completely different functions as well. I’m using it for keybinds for photoshop - I wanted to click one key to switch to the eraser tool (basically like binding it to E key), then when I pressed it again, I wanted it to switch to the brush (binding to B key).

So, I made one macro with the keybind for E down/E up, and then one macro with the keybind for B down/B up. Then, I created a third macro, clicked the dropdown button beside Record and set it to “Sequence”. Then I clicked on the dropdown button beside Insert, selected Macro Group, selected my E macro. Then repeated the process with my B macro.

The Sequence setting apparently makes it move to the next step each time you click the key, so this can be used to have a key toggle between two different keys/functions, or however many you want.

In case anything I explained is unclear, go through the steps from the reddit link (which is meant to set up something being held on the first press, then released on the second press, which is similar to what we want but different) and it should clarify each step I described.
