Alt + Tab using an IPAC?

alt would already be a one of the player buttons so that's not a problem.  i'll be switching between mame and wincab. 

i guess i'll have to have an additional button for TAB

AlanS17:

If you're just mapping the buttons to the seperate keys, why do you need macros?

eggedd2k:

i was just wondering if there's another way of mapping a TAB button. obviously ALT is part of player one's control set.

it's for switching between programs on the cab

Assume this is a general question (not specific to this thread)???

You might want a dedicated button on the cab for Alt-Tab, rather than having to remember to press P1B2 and (whatever you assigned to Tab).

Also many programs use ALT-F4 to exit (or ALT-X), or.  It's more convenient to load a custom codeset for these games with ALT-F4 mapped to your Escape key than to have to remember to press P1B2 and (whatever you assigned to F4) for these games only.
