Can I move multiple keys at once? I'm editing one of the full US keyboards to look like my Alienware because it seems like the easiest way to go about it. Your method is probably better @joao7yt, but I am a massive noob with Nohboard, so most of that went over my head. It sounds like you were telling me to cut up a real life picture of my keyboard to use as my onscreen keyboard? Maybe? I want to get to that eventually, but for now, I'm just trying to get the layout to look similar to mine.

I'm at a decent start, but the going is slow. I want to move the entire number pad towards the keyboard; can I do that all at once? Or do I have to move each key individually? I have tried to figure it out myself, ctrl-clicking, shift-clicking, and clicking and dragging, but I have not found a way to select more than one key.

You can move all keys at once holding alt, but i think it would not help you. You can use arrows to move more precisely, tho.

About the image: I thought you also wanted the textures of your keyboard... you can see on my styles, in “joao7yt” category, that they have images on each key... but now i got, you just want the layout.

It takes time to get used to it, there’s a lot of features... they are really intuitive, tho, just ask any doubt here :)

@joao7yt I saw your keyboards right after I sent that message; those look awesome. I definitely want to do something like that for mine. I'm just wanting to do the basic layout for right now because I'm supposed to record a video with someone soon and I don't think I have time to make it before then.

This second paragraph originally contained a question you already answered. Thankfully I went back and re-read your message before I posted it. The message that I said went over my head makes perfect sense now. I need to use Photoshop to crop out each different key shape from a picture of my keyboard and use those images to replace your images. I really want to do that as soon as I have time.

Thanks for the help.

Unfortunately I don’t have the keypad on my keyboard because of space issues, i prefered to bought a keyboard without it, so i cant test it myself... but check if the keycodes on that keys are the right ones. Try to load another keyboard configurations too

With .lua scripts and the like added to OBS Studio, will this open new possibilities for this project? or allow it to be more streamlined?

Hi, @joao7yt. I am trying to use Nohboard for streaming but it doesn't work for me. Every time I alt-tab for a game (which is running in windowed mode), the Nohboard, which is set in background or minimezed, don't follow the keys input. While I'm using a browser or smth that is not a game, the Nohboard works fine and I can capture it through OBS and see it in my stream. But when I switch for a game, it just don't follow any input I make. Don't quite understand what the problem is.
