Thanks for reporting It could be that Starcraft 2 on Windows is unable to recognised CapsLock as a keyboard event in case of CapsLock is disabled in this way Have you tried to use the GUI hotkey to fix it? It might be possible that CapsLock keypress with your setup is recognized in-game by another keyboard event
I don't think I know what the GUI hotkey is, but I'd like to give that a try. Can you give me more information about that?
If you're using unmodified current TheCore Lite those lines are to be modified CameraCenter=Alt+Tab,Alt+CapsLock,Alt+Grave,Alt+Shift ControlGroupAppend6=Control+Alt+CapsLock ControlGroupAppendAndSteal6=Control+CapsLock ControlGroupAssign6=Shift+Alt+CapsLock ControlGroupAssignAndSteal6=Control+Shift+CapsLock ControlGroupRecall6=CapsLock
Example with "ControlGroupRecall6" to find proper keycode:
Maybe CapsLock physical key press with your setup gives a different Starcraft 2 key code. If you get this work, you can change all CapsLock to the proper key code in the .SC2Hotkeys for all occurences
Ah, I understand what you mean now. This would work for me, but I actually want to use CapsLock so I can stick with the default settings for TheCoreLite. I was just wondering if you have a way on Windows to prevent using the hotkey from toggling between caps and no caps for the system.
I think there are various ways: https://www.wikihow.com/Disable-the-Capslock-Key-in-Windows (using regedit or relying on external software)
The point is that you want a "CapsLock" event detected by SC2 at Capslock key press, while "Caps Lock" behavior is inhibited. Maybe there is a setup that would enable that, maybe not.
Unfortunately I cannot help further, as I'm a Linux user, with no Windows at all…
Thanks for your last reply! Sorry, I thought I had closed this already. I'll share back any findings I have here when I make time to research.

Hi there,
I'm using The Core Lite on both Windows and Mac. On both OSes, I've disabled caps lock, but in Windows I had to use a registry edit to do so. That makes a Caps Lock keypress not register in Starcraft. Is there a way to use Caps Lock in SC2 without turning on and off caps lock mode?
As an aside, thank you for keeping this up to date! I'm still got more to learn with this keyboard layout, but it's already making a big difference in my mechanics.
