5. If you have trouble entering shortcuts that require modifiers like the Command ⌘ or Option ⌥ keys such as [ ⌘ + Tab ], [ ⌘ + Shift + 5 ], or [ ⌘ + ⌥ + Esc ], try entering the [Command ⌘ or Option ⌥] + second key at the same time, followed by the next keys.

Using [ ⌘ + ⌥ + Esc ] as an example:

  1. clear and click the Macro entry box

  2. press ⌘ + Enter

  3. press ⌥ + Esc

6. Update Device to flash the change to the ChonkerKeys
