Capslock rebind #35382

Open Programmer13-robotics opened 1 month ago

Programmer13-robotics commented 1 month ago

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Caps lock is kind of useless, being able to replace it with a shortcut could provide useful.

Scenario when this would be used?

E.g. instead of alt + tab, using the caps-lock key, to improve productivity

Supporting information

Many other software contain the ability to rebind keys, and have proved rather helpful and popular.

You can do that already, with the keyboard manager. Select remap a key. Click left select button press caps-lock. Click right select button and press alt tab, and then save it.

For some reason, it seems not working on my PC. Well even if I rebind and click continue anyway, the bind neither show up in the bind key section or work. I guess it might be a bug? Windows 11 pro workstation system.
