shift kills caps lock after shift-modified key is typed out #66

Open d3aWrVVmn opened 1 year ago

using EPKL v1.4.1

for example: expected: CAPS "LOCK" actual: CAPS "lock"

if no shift-modified key is typed out, i.e. i'm only pressing shift without typing anything, the caps lock stays on i don't know if this is expected behaviour. if it is, i'm sorry; can it be disabled? i'm also sorry for using the issues page for tech support

The issues page is the right place for this, don't worry! Also, sorry for the late reply but I've been on vacation.

I cannot reproduce your problem.

Activating CapsLock (using Extend+Esc), then hitting Shift for the quotes, I get: CAPS "LOCK" exactly as it ought to be.

I reproduced this using both an eD (state mapped) and eD2VK (VK) layout.

If you keep the Shift key repressed while typing "lock, it will come out in minuscles, as expected.

ah, that so... i tested the previous versions, and v1.3.1 the caps lock stays on. v1.4.0 has shift killing the caps lock just like v1.4.1 also, i forgot, i'm sorry: i'm running windows 10 19044.3208

If you suspend EPKL and try it, it should be the same behavior: Caps+Shift decapitalizes letters again.

It also depends on your mappings if you use a state mapped layout such as the eD ones. The CapsBehavior or "CStat" number governs how each key behaves when using CapsLock; it's a bit map of the states that display this behavior.

ah yeah! i'm sorry again: i was using colemak(vk) (the default one). switching to colemak(ed) does stop shift from killing the capslock
