Default Irreplaceable full sized keyboard keys

Hey guys,

What is in your opinion keys that can't be replaced with another alternate command beside the standard full keyboard layout, minus the numpad, page up, down and end?

I just got an MX Keys Mini and am really happy with it.

I'm afraid I don't understand your problem the way you have it worded.

He doesn't have a num pad or arrow keys on his min-keyboard and wants to know if there are other keys that will perform the same shortcuts or how he can make shortcuts to replace their shortcuts. There might be a few alternative keystrokes and Avid have given us the ability to make our own custom shortcuts. Start there OP if you have the latest version.

Another option is to pick up a USB keypad with the number keys

Actually I have arrow keys, I just wondered whether i can go without the page up and down, end and numpad area keys.

Below is the keyboard I'm interested in.

A "QWERTZ" keyboard? (Not qwerty)

Never seen that before.

Awkward for cmd-Z, undo, though.

Definitely. As I often joke the thumb and index finger of my left hand are semi-permanently bent into the position for cmd-s for save and cmd-z which is right next door.

Are there shortcuts / button combinations with the page up / down, end and numpad area that I wouldn't be able to live without?
