Please add support for the following device:

Device Name: SteelSeries Apex 7

Device Website: https://steelseries.com/gaming-keyboards/apex-7?switch=red

Currently works best through generic keyboard (preferred keyboard: none), however the ? and the ` keys cant seem to be controlled and stay locked to their previous colour. I did try the currently supported steelseries layouts however the closest one, Apex M750, results in the steelseries (APP/FN key) also becoming disabled.

OpenRGB appears to have support for this keyboard already, and I have it installed, but I do not use it for my keyboard lighting. I am specifically using Aurora to steelseries GG direct.

Did you try different "Preferred Keyboard Layout" options?
Also that part is a bit bugged and some selections may need restart of Aurora to work best

United States is what matches my layout correctly. However I have run through others and it still makes no difference. I have also gone through all the keyboard layouts too, with no luck. In all cases the "?" and "~" keys still fail to be recognized.

Trying the RGB.net device seems to have all keys light up including the steelseries one. But then no further animation, just what the initial setting was.
OpenRGB works fine except the steelseries key and I do have to disable any lighting via SteelSeriesGG or it will flicker between them.

I don't know if this is any help but the below is what appears in the RGB.net remapper (although no remaping can be done)
