Solaar: Logitech Craft - no Fn switch
arch linux, solaar git master. We have basic info but no Fn switch. The screenshot is like that shown in #404
Will we have (interests for ) it supported? Let me know if you want to see more infos...

Craft even has an official sdk but not Linux-friendly...

I also have a Logitech Craft, and indeed I cannot find a way to switch Fn-Keys. Not via Solaar nor via any other method. Any information about this?

If you press the FN key and ESC at the same time, the keyboard will change the default behavior.
however, i have a local WIP branch with a initial support for craft, i will push it soon.

@spaced Has anything happened regarding "initial support for craft"? I just got such a keyboard and even if it looks and feels nice, not being able to switch desktops with Ctrl-Fn renders it second class. That's the first time for me with a Logitech product that I as a Linux user get screwed.

@spaced I got your advice now: press the "Function Key" fn and esc, which toggles the way F1 to F12 send scan codes, i.e. Ctrl-F1 for example switches to Desktop 1.
Thank you for your advice.

Can I get some confirmation #587 works?

@FFY00 works as expected, confirmed with my own craft keyboard. BUT: if you use the way pressing FN-ESC together on the keyboard, then the toggle in solaar has no effect anymore.

That seems like a firmware issue, if it's an issue at all.
