I "flipped" my shopbot around about a year ago. Consequently when I use keyboard arrow controls I have to push the opposite key to make it move in the direction I want. I have gotten fed up with actually having to think about which arrow to push. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks,
Gregg

I used a small, simple program - Key Tweak. Works well. If you want it, I can send it to you.

I just downloaded it and will give it a try.
Thanks for the tip.

My solution was far less technical...

Not the model I have, but you get the idea. A couple well placed -> labels and I was good to go.

Good thought on the labels but its a non-starter for me. I have two bots and they are set up so the keyboards are in the same relative position as the shopbots. I don't actually look at the keys when moving I just push the button in the direction I want to go. I would have to turn my keyboard around 180 degrees. That would fix the directional problem but all other typing might be a bit harder
