Setting up a bluetooth device to send keyboard commands, I feel like I’m missing some documentation.
- How do I send key combos, e.g. “Ctrl-A” or “Alt-Shift-T”?
- In the “Send Key” command, what does “+ GUI / meta key” mean?
Thanks!

Thanks!
I gues you mean Bluetooth instead of IR? To send combinations of keys use the „send command“ command. There are some examples on GitHub: core-api/doc/bt/README.md at main · unfoldedcircle/core-api · GitHub
The LGUI/RGUI keys are the Windows Key.
You’re right, sorry, I’ve edited my original post to correct that.
For #2, I’m referring to the “+ GUI / meta key” toggle that appears in the “Send Key” command editor:
Is there any documentation on that? The Github docs include how to set it, but don’t say what it does.
The GUI/meta button is the Windows Key like I mentioned in my post. I don’t know why UC is not including this info here. I think it’s because that’s the name of that Button according the official Bluetooth documentation.
The GUI/meta checkbox option should do the same as using send command with LGUI+Key
Got it, thanks. I assumed we were talking about two different things because I can’t wrap my head around including a handle toggle just for the LEAST-USED modifier key on the board.
It’s exacly like I wrote (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70032237/why-is-the-windows-meta-command-key-called-gui). Maybe the GUI key was included because you can start pinned apps on the taskbar with it Win+1, 2, 3 etc.
