grave not working on custom remote

[momar33]

I am making a custom remote that requires the grave key (the other character on the tilde key).

I set it to grave as found on the available keys list, but it does not work.

Here is my remote.lua code:
`local kb = libs.keyboard;

-- Documentation
-- http://www.unifiedremote.com/api

-- Keyboard Library
-- http://www.unifiedremote.com/api/libs/keyboard

--@help Full Screen
actions.fullScreen = function ()
kb.stroke("f");
end

--@help Pause
actions.pause = function ()
kb.stroke("space");
end

--@help Switch Screens
actions.switchSCreens = function ()
kb.stroke("grave");
end`

So I apparently looked in the wrong section for the keys. Windows does not have a grave.

How can I set a button up to use a tilde, also how can I set a button up to use the backtick?

Wow, I had always called it a backtick. TIL. I have a windows keyboard though, and it's on there?

Sorry for the shot in the dark, but does this not do it? kb.stroke("`");

[momar33]

kb.stroke("`"); does not work.

[ghost]

for the "tilde" or "backtick", (which.is "grave accent") instead of using
kb.stroke

Instead, use the function
kb.character

The kb.character uses the "character.keyboard" library found in unified remote, which uses UTF-8 hex coding (refer to the link at the bottom for details), but the coding is 0x60

So instead of
kb.stroke("'");

our output will be
kb.character(0x60);

Full string would look like the following:

actions.command1 = function ()
kb.character(0x60);
end
