Home End buttons like PC in Karabiner-Elements

[nka...@gmail.com]

Hello,

does anyone know how can I change the home & end buttons in karabiner-elements in sierra ?

I have done this method as described here:

http://heisencoder.net/2008/04/fixing-up-mac-key-bindings-for-windows.html

but it doesn't work correctly as in karabiner (from what I remember).

For example if you want to select only a sentence, you press shift and then the home or end but if there is more text to it, it selects ALL the text above or below this sentence !?! I would like to select ONLY this sentence.

Which configuration can I use in karabiner-elements so that it will work like before ?

Thanks !!

What exactly doesn't work?

I use this setup for myself:

    /* home */

    "\UF729"  = "moveToBeginningOfLine:";

    "$\UF729" = "moveToBeginningOfLineAndModifySelection:";

    /* end */

    "\UF72B"  = "moveToEndOfLine:";

    "$\UF72B" = "moveToEndOfLineAndModifySelection:";

    /* page up/down */

    "\UF72C"  = "pageUp:";

    "\UF72D"  = "pageDown:";

This gives:

fn+left/right to move cursor to start/end of line (or select with shift)

fn+up/down – to move cursor one page up / page down

Hello my friend !

yes, you are right !

I had these:

{

"\UF729" = "moveToBeginningOfLine:"; /* home key */

"\UF72B" = "moveToEndOfLine:"; /* end key */

"\UF72C"   = "pageUp:"; /* PageUp */

"\UF72D"   = "pageDown:"; /* PageDown */

}

which were not good enough for what I wanted.

I tried yours and it's working perfectly fine!

Thank you again !!!

where do I put this code in Karabiner Elements?

Same here. Karabiner-Elements doesn't allow you (as far as I can see) to map Home or End to act like PC (to move to start / end of line), which requires to map to Cmd+Right arrow and Cmd+Left arrow.  You only seem to be able to map single keys to single keys.

The old Karabina was fine and allowed this. Or am I missing something?

Thanks.
