Can the programmable buttons be set / bound to individual keyboard keys such as A-Z, 1-0, Number pad, etc? Or is that done via the macros?

The included software is pretty handy when it comes to assigning buttons. The programmable buttons can be assigned to keyboard keys (not sure about NUM pad). Macros are also part of the included software and several profiles can be set up for simultaneous use. Hope that helps.

Yes, you are able to set the programmable buttons to whatever key on your keyboard. If you get the mouse, just go into the driver program that comes with the mouse, and you'll see the list of all the buttons on the mouse ordered 1-7. Just click one and choose the option "single key". Then just press the key you want binded, and that's it. Sorry if that was really on-going. I just wanted to be descriptive.

I can only answer for War Thunder which is the way I use it. The programmable buttons can be set inside the game and bound to the buttons on the mouse. I use both keyboard and mouse when I fly. It is a great little mouse. Some keys bound to the keyboard and some to the mouse. All inside the game. I have not use the program that came with the mouse except to set up the DPI settings which can be changed during flight if I need it.

You have to use the macro function to bind a specific key directly to one of the mouse's macro buttons. The key presses can be timed to as low as 0.2ms response upon programming.

Does this keyboard have keys for Microsort Word like ctrl-B for bold-face type, etc.?

Hello Marcelo Yes you can. I have one as Ctrl and one key as Shift. I use them in combination with the mouse buttons to select and move/copy items in Windows. In this case, the key must have only one code assigned to it (Ctrl OR Shift OR Alt) otherwise you need to supply the key-up code as well.

you cant, you'll have to bind it to one of the function keys. I've never had to do it, but this will probably help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc138531.aspx or just google bind keyboard shortcuts

You can adjust the "G" keys to do pretty much anything. Just download the software for the keyboard at Corsairs site. From there you can adjust each "G" key to do anything as in adding text to using macros, pretty much anything.

Not sure, but when you use the Logitech SetPoint software, you can program the buttons for certain commands. I have one button that pulls all programs into one screen. So you can certainly set up commands and whatnot.

I would imagine so.. it emulates your keyboard. You assign the keys to how you want it mapped. & it works great for macros.Many many profiles to create & use.I haven't used my keyboard for any game since I got it!!

All buttons other than the Left Click may be programmed as any key or combination of Keys (Macros)

No, there was no documentation. Just plug in the keyboard and it works. The shortcut buttons are auto assigned.

The mouse macro options in the software should allow you to program the buttons to activate keyboard keys, repeat recorded mouse actions, and mouse buttons. To open software, you could record presses involving the windows key, but it cannot natively open software.

Do you mean that (after programming it) you plug this into a usb port on your computer and the computer automatically thinks it's a keyboard?Yes, you can map it anyway you like and it the same as hitting that key on the keyboard. You can even map combinations such as atl+F or ctrl+V into one keystroke. Very handy.

Yes you can; the macro software available from the Corsair website - http://www.corsair.com/en-us/support/downloads - includes a .pdf manual which shows how to program and edit macros, both on the hardware and software sides.

Yes, you have to download synapse. But there you can make every button a macro if you want

The macros are not fully compatible with every program, So i do not know. Also keep in mind that its a gaming keyboard so its made mainly for gamers. I dont think the macros display on the LED screen on the keyboard, but they do have a separate program that lets you see all your macros that you program. Honestly though, this keyboard isn't as fantastic as it sounds, the youtube app doesn't even let you browse for certain videos :/

You can save it to either the cloud or to your pc. I recommend both. When I had to wipe my pc I easily logged back in to get all my macro's back the way they were in seconds. The d pad can be what ever you want it to be. it goes from 4 to 8 buttons which ever you want it to be.

Hm. I'm starting to wonder if you play DayZ.Anyway, yes. Any of the buttons on the mouse can be remapped to any function (such as a keystroke or macro) that you wish via the included configuration software. I'm kind of surprised I haven't done that yet, myself.
