Natural keymap doesn't work as expected when the OS is forcing alpha caps #324

Closed adriweb closed 5 years ago

For instance, when creating a new program, the OS locks alpha caps for the program name. If the user is using the Natural keymap, then he can't type letters directly, he has to press shift+[letter] so as to send a capital letter (then it works). While it is indeed "normal" technically, it's a bit annoying. Is there any way around that? Detecting the current OS-capslock and pushing caps to the OS in this case even if the user didn't press shift?

Note: just tried on a USB keyboard plugged to the calc, it behaves the same, user-unfriendly, way.

Closing since this turned out to be the normal (yet not user-friendly) behaviour, see previous comment.
