#Light bar toggle with key press

Hey,

I am trying to make the light bar toggle with a different key press similar to caps lock functionality.
Currently I have assigned the top right "Pause" key to F24 and am using that to Toggle Mute on Discord and want the light bar to show me the status.
It doesn't need to have any integration with discord, just a simple colour change for the light bar on each press.

Anyone know how to make that work?

Yeah I heard about that, but I more mean in general too

#

Like if its possible to assign the lightbar to toggle on a key press, not specifically for Discord only but just globally

#

Has some uses outside of discord

not that im currently aware of

#

the issue is that outside of capslock, numpock and scrolllock there is not really toggled keys in an os

ah okay, thought it could be possible just with the keyboards onboard memory

yesnt it would basically always desync anyway

#

profile switching or a quick unplug would mean that the state doesnt necessarily reflect what you want it to be
