Screenshot feature will smaller keyboard

Unread post by chanunnaki »

So you can take beautiful pixel-perfect screenshots with MiSTer... but you need a keyboard connected with an F13/Print key.

Is there a way to remap this to something else? For example, I've got a small USB Apple Keyboard connected and it only goes to F12, making screenshots impossible.

Here's a couple of screenshots I took earlier. So nice.

I figured it out. I used my full size keyboard and remapped the PRINT key to P... then I renamed the the map file to my smaller keyboard and now instead of pressing Fn+Print+Win, I can just press Command+P.

Now, if I could just figure out how to make it a single keypress to make a screenshot... that would be awesome :)

I'd really love to be able to map this function to some sort of controller button-combo, à la Steam. Is there a way to jury-rig this on the current firmware that I'm just not seeing?
