Stream deck wow7/3/2023 ![]() (2) It seems that without using KM as an intermediary app, there is no way to attach scripts that runs on DT directly. limit a set of buttons to apply to DT only? (1) It appears that there is no app-specific setup. BUT using hardware buttons (the stream deck) is probably way cooler!Ĭan’t make a purchase decision because of: (if my understanding is correct) (4) A much cheaper solution than buying the hardware. (3) Solve the problem of me forgetting those occasionally used key short-cuts. (2) Adding buttons is very easy, and icon and label on buttons are highly customisable.

I have used the Elgato mobile app for a few hours (3 days trial) to set up buttons just as hotkeys for short-cuts. So you can make your own page on the Stream Deck hardware for PDF annotation, for your favorite documents, and for any other tasks in DT3 that you regularly do. Best of all you can very easily create icons containing photos or text or graphics and these change as you work through your customized Stream Deck pages. Though there are “only” 15 keys, it can be programmed with subfolders or alternate profiles and thus the number of items you can include is basically infinite. The end effect is that you can use the Stream Deck to have keys dedicated to any keyboard sequence or internal x-link or menu item you wish in DT3. There is a plugin to the Elgato configuration software so it works with Keyboard Maestro. It is primarily marketed toward gaming streamers, but there is actually nothing about it specific to gaming. But the downside is you need to remember the shortcuts you create.Įlgato Stream Deck is basically a customizable keypad where software can change both the images on the keypads and the function of each key. It’s extremely capable in working with DT3. Keyboard Maestro has long been the go-to standard for automating any task or application on the Mac. The combination is stunningly useful to customize DT3 in order to fix any UI quirks and to overall improve productivity using DT3.
