Description

@Fred-IV

Before opening the issue, have you...?

  • Searched for existing issues
  • Looked through the wiki
  • Updated MonitorControl to the latest version (if applicable)

Describe the bug

My volume keys are working in Mac OS using the fn keys F9-F11.
The brightness keys in this app cannot be set for the fn keys.
This is interfering with games and other apps.
I've tried all the settings, and it seems to ignore the fn keys completely.

Steps to reproduce

I've tried re-binding the keys in the settings, but it cannot recognize the fn key.

Expected behavior

Bind keys using the fn key, for example fn F14-F15

Anything else?

    Are you trying to create custom keyboard shortcuts? If so and it does not recognize these keys, you can file a request here:

    https://github.com/sindresorhus/KeyboardShortcuts#localization

    MonitorControl uses this opensource tool to handle custom keyboard shortcuts.

    Btw F14/F15 should be handled by the Standard (non custom) media key settings. There is a good chance that switching to that will fix the issue:
