It's probably a long shot, not sure if it can be done either from Sierra Settings or ACSIL? Thanks in advance. |

You can in ACSIL. Convert the Windows Key Code for Caps Lock in hex (0x14) to decimal (20). if (sc.SetDefaults)
{ //Other Code sc.ReceiveKeyboardKeyEvents = true; return; } int pressedKey = sc.KeyboardKeyEventCode; if (pressedKey == 20) { //Do Something } pressedKey = 0; You might be able to check for the hex value directly, but this was so easy, I never tried to work the hex-check out.

Hi ondafringe, Thanks so much for your reply! Unfortunately, I am not able to use sc.KeyboardKeyEventCode after version 2439 (sc.CharacterEventCode works fine), most likely it was my Linux+Wine issue, I haven't figured out why ever since. Also, I am hoping to have a sign telling me the current on/off state of Caps Lock. Thanks all the same. cheers, |
