Hello, You're welcome. Thank you for the attention. Yes I am also using onboard in 10.10 and I also do get the color change on button press.
Do you think it would be overzealous to globally add such a function as proposed ? I know it is a very special use case but if you think of the evolving tablet (or other large touchscreen-) devices it may be used broadly soon. I might test it on my device and see if it works well. The problem is I don't have much coding experience and have no idea where to insert it. Where are the lines that make the pressed key go black located ?
