XP-PEN ACK05 Bluetooth Shortcut Keyboard with 10 Keys and a Wireless Dial for Digital Drawing, Photo and Video Edit, Programmable Quick Keys More Effective Keys for Graphics Tablet, PC, Mac

Q: Would it work with another brand graphic tablet?

yes, I'm using a Wacom tablet at the same time. I'm running Windows. I only installed the XPPenWin_ShortcutRemote (Shortcut Remote driver), not the XPPenWin (full driver package) drivers.

Q: Can a single key be programmed to type a sting of text such a s password?

I just tried it and it did work; it looks like it can do a full complicated password or sentence. I personally wouldn't recommend it, since it is not a secure way to save a password. Anyone who opens the program for the express keys can see what each key is labeled as and what it types. There is also the chance that you could accidentally press that key while in another field, chat, or email and cause your password to leak that way. Again, I don't recommend it, but it can be done.

Q: Can you pair it with macOS and windows at the same time like one set for Mac and another set for Windows?

I tried, and you have to pair one system at a time, you have to basically disconnect from the PC first, then connect to the MAC and vice versa. It doesn't control both at the same time. The pairing is fairly quick and easy but I would not call it seamless. Hope that helps.

Q: Can the buttons be programmed to adjust things like exposure, contrast, temperature, and sharpness in Adobe Lightroom?

If you can find the keyboard shortcut to those settings, then it could be programmed to adjust those settings.
