Pinging the group if anybody found a work around for non-working Ctrl-Fn, Ctrl-Home, and Ctrl-End buttons. Is everyone simply not using those key combos or is my keyboard broken?

rshpountThere does seem to be something wrong, when I try to use CTRL-FN-Home the first time it only triggers CTRL-PU when you press the Page Up key again (leaving the CTRL and FU keys pressed) it then triggers the CTRL-Home function. So it seems to ignore the Function key the first time you press CTRL-FU-PU.

unorthodoxYeah I'm seeing the same thing. It's not really an issue for me since I never use that shortcut though.

LevelSteamWould Massdrop/Vendor please acknowledge that certain key combos simply do not work on this keyboard and that there is no fix or workaround? This should be part of the product description.

rshpountWell *technically* the key combination works, you just have to press it a second time for some reason. It seems like a firmware issue to me but I'm not sure if there's any way to update it on the board anyway.

LevelSteamWell "technically" telegraph key is keyboard. You just need to press it a lot of times and use the Morse code.
@Massdrop still needs to acknowledge it is not a fully functional keyboard. They either need to provide a way to fix it or provide a disclaimer. As it stands I can use this keyboard with my mac, where I do not use Ctrl-Fn, Ctrl-Home, and Ctrl-End key combinations, but it is annoyingly useless with PC, where I use Ctrl-Home and Ctrl-End to move to the start/end of the large documents.

rshpountNo I agree completely. I'm only saying that they probably scoot around saying that it doesn't work by the fact that it does on the second press.
It's not a terrible board for the price, but it is worth mentioning that it doesn't function exactly like you'd expect.

unorthodoxok so FN+PU is suppossed to be HOME. but when trying to do a CTRL+HOME by CTRL+FN+PU, you just get CTRL+PU. to get the desired result you need to press PU twice, hence, CTRL+FN+PU+PU?
