hello! im new at arduino i just wanna make two button macro key with arduino leonardo, one "CTRL+K" another is "Q" i can make it work separately but can not combine two codes. thank you in advance.

code for (CTRL+K)

#include <Keyboard.h>

char ctrlKey = KEY_LEFT_GUI;

void setup() {

pinMode(2, INPUT_PULLUP);

Keyboard.begin();
}

void loop() {
while (digitalRead(2) == HIGH) {

delay(500);

}
delay(1000);

Keyboard.press(ctrlKey);
Keyboard.press('k');
delay(100);
Keyboard.releaseAll();

delay(1000);
}

Code for (Q)

#include <Keyboard.h>

void setup() {
pinMode(3,INPUT_PULLUP);

Serial.begin(9600);

}

void loop() {

Keyboard.begin();
if (digitalRead(3) == 0)
{
Keyboard.press('q');
delay(200);
}
else { Keyboard.releaseAll(); }
Keyboard.end();
}

How are they supposed to work together?

Why would you do that in loop()?

Your code for 'Ctrl-K' is going to wait until Pin 2 goes HIGH. While it is waiting, Pin 3 is never checked.

You should look at the StateChangeDetection example to see how to perform actions when a button goes from Unpressed to Pressed or from Pressed to Unpressed. That will get rid of all of the delays and wait loops.
