I set the Left ⌥ to Right ⌥ for an input method need and set Right ⌥ to a mouse key as a KM trigger. This way, I can also use the other Right Modifier keys in combination with the physical Right ⌥ key as KM triggers.
The USB Device key trigger is best if we use it to trigger macros and limit to a specific device.
Karabiner-Elements can do more if we want to have more options, for example:
In addition to limiting the remapping to a specific device, it can also remap the keys for all devices. This is useful for multiple keyboards.
As shown in my previous post, If we remap a modifier key to a non-modifier key (or a mouse button), we can use it to work with the other modifier keys as KM triggers.
As shown in my previous post, I can remap a modifier key to another modifier key (Left ⌥ to Right ⌥). I'm not sure KM can do it.
The problem is, I am not being able to figure out how do I use this in combination of another key.
For instance, I wish to trigger macro 1 with left command + A and wish to trigger macro 2 with right command + A.
