Key Combos

[philipt18]

How do I enter a key-combo like Command-Option-Shift-V (which is Paste and Match Style in an app I use)?

I see ZMK can do something like &kp LCMD(LALT(LSHFT(V))) but I don't know how to enter this in the editor.

And is that the same thing as setting the first three as modifiers and tapping the V? I assume that would use &mp although I'm not clear how to do that either.

Thanks.

Maybe that would properly be: &kp LG(LA(LS(V)))

Based on: https://zmk.dev/docs/codes/modifiers#modifier-functions

How do I get that into the editor?

I really got surprised that we can do that in keymap editor...Nice feature

is it possible to do this with &mt bindings? doesn't seem like it.

Not at the moment. When I initially added &mt it was with the understanding that the first parameter was a single modifier, but the implementation of the behavior technically allows for any keycode (which includes modified modifiers, like LC(LALT) for example).

I should probably just change it to allow any keycode, but in the short term you can get around this by making your own hold-tap behavior that uses bindings = <&kp>, <&kp>; and it will interpret that to be keycodes.

I ended up just tapping it in myself into the key map file but I guess from here on out the editor will wipe out my binding lol

It Shouldn't™.

Unless you touch that specific key's binding (not sure if changing the tap parameter would trigger this) the keymap editor generally will just leave it alone and complain with red highlighting that it doesn't seem to be a correct value type.
