Hi
On my new laptop the Enter key is too small, while below it the Shift and the Ctrl keys are very large... and useless. I frequently press them by mistake instead of Enter.
Could I somehow assign the Enter action to one (or both) of these keys? In Keyboard Application Shortcuts from Settings Manager I can't, because it asks for a command to be associated with a key or key combination. How can I remap Ctrl right?
How to assign Enter to Ctrl right key?
