Does not work in all keyboard layouts though. One more reason to use US layout.

- spicybright 5y agoSurely you can re-map it though.
- jen20 5y agoYou can remap it in system preferences. For a UK keyboard it makes the most sense to map it to “section” which is directly above tab.
- samwillis 5y agoI map that key (without Cmd) to Escape on my Touch Bar MacBook... The best, yet should be unnecessary, key map tweak.
- drcongo 5y agoI did that on my old TouchBar Mac too, life saving. As soon as they brought out one with an escape key I replaced it. And again when the new ones came out with no TouchBar at all. What a farce the TouchBar was.
- spicybright 5y agoI can't recommend BetterTouchTool enough for touch bars. You can setup custom buttons, gestures, widgets, etc. On mine I do: - A button to show desktop at the top left, so I can tap it, start dragging something, and tap again to drag things into windows - some common function keys for editing - links to work webpages and note files I use frequently - Some shortcuts to system stuff: play/pause media, silence notifications, take a screen shot, etc. - swiping with 2 fingers controls volume, 3 for screen brightness, 4 for keyboard backlight. All of these have become second nature, and turned the touchbar from a nuisance to disappointment future macbooks won't have them anymore. Obviously it still may not be useful to you, but it might be worth trying the demo as long as you're stuck with it for now. https://folivora.ai/ https://folivora.ai/
