Thanks, I thought of doing that but Putting tape on a keypad looks janky and also the green would still show through Some of the other areas of the keyboard. Not worried about what is easier, just want it to look right. Still not sure why they can’t just add a toggle in the software. If they will add the option to the 2nd gen Keypad to always show the mode when plugged in I will switch back. I don’t remember seeing a bright green light on the 2nd gen Keypad when plugged in. Who knows, depending on if the take apart looks like it will break it I may put tape on it for now
