CapShift - NumLock on IBM ThinkPads
(1/1)
Kruskal:
On a ThinkPad (maybe other notebooks), NumLock shares a key with ScrollLock. You select Numlock by Shift-ScrollLock. CapsShift doesn't see the NumLock. I'm guessing that it comes in looking like a Shift-NumLock.
Similarly, but less importantly, CapShift doesn't see Shift-CapsLock.
Windows treats both Shift-NumLock and Shift-CapsLock as though they were unshifted.
Thanks for the great gadget -- Vincent

:) I never thought of the possibility. Are you saying that when you press Shift-CapsLock, CAPshift starts counting? On my PC it toggles CapsLock directly, being ignored by CAPshift.

No, I'm not saying that. As I said "CapShift doesn't see Shift-CapsLock". My Shift-CapsLock acts just as yours. Is that really your intention?
But my main point was that CapShift doesn't work with the only NumLock I have on my notebook PC. I was guessing that it is because the only way I can "press" Numlock looks like Shift-NumLock. I'm not sure. What I know is that CapShift doesn't work with NumLock and I "press" NumLock using Shift-ScrollLock. (Maybe this is why the newer Lenovo ThinkPads have switched to Fn-ScrollLock.)
Thanks -- Vincent
