I actually want to set hotkey shortcut, I have dell keyboard and desktop, when I press Fn key on keyboard it does not work. I wanted to assign Fn + f4.

Hi @abhimm5, Fn keys are not tracked within Windows, and so they can't be tracked within Twinkle Tray. See #291 for more information.

@xanderfrangos thanks, doesn't it completely track? because I usually take screenshot and search using Fn key.

@abhimm5 Fn keys are not sent to Windows. Instead, the keyboard will tell Windows directly "take a screenshot" or "open search". Windows never knows that a Fn key was pressed, and so it can't be tracked by apps.
