Synapse 4 cannot make the distinction between Enter and Num-Enter

I have a Deathstalker Pro. Using it with default keybinds is fine. For programs that make the distinction between Enter and Num-Enter, it works as intended.

However, if I want to re-program a key or mouse button to ‘Enter’ in Synapse 4, the software will always recognise it as ‘Num-Enter’. 

Input: Enter
Output: Num-Enter

This isn’t my area of expertise, but I believe Enter and Num-Enter share a code, and therefore the distinction has to be made by a secondary parameter. Or maybe you need to sacrifice a lamb to an old Macintosh? I don’t programming. 

 

Considering how commonplace the distinction is in software, this severely limits the usability of programmable keys..

QUESTION: Does anyone have a workaround? Is this something that could be solved reasonably easily?

Yeah, same thing is happening to me. Keeps showing as number pad enter when I try to assign the regular enter key.

 

Workaround:

Create a Macro just for hitting ENTER key.

Assign your key to that macro and it’ll work.

Can’t believe that didn’t occur to me! Thanks, man.

Edit: Actually, I can’t believe that worked. I take it the Key input and Macro fields are coded differently? Strange.
