Ctrl key sticks?

[Louis Manfredi]

Hello All:

Sometimes when I'm working in LabView, it starts acting as if the Ctrl key on my keyboard is stuck.

Sounds an awful lot like a hardware problem, doesn't it :question:

But it only seems to happen with LabView.

Sometimes clicking the ctrl key a lot makes the problem go away, sometimes I have to exit LabView to get rid of it.

Anyone else see anything Like this?

Best Regards, Louis

I had a similar problem back when I was working with LabVIEW 5.0. I believe the problem went away when upgrading to LabVIEW 5.1? (it was a long time ago, so hard to remember accurate details)

Thanks to a corporate email server upgrade, I no longer have the email I exchanged with NI back then.

Hi John:

Thanks for the info--

I'm running 7.1.1 now, but come to think of it, seems like this has been going on for a long time... perhaps off & on since I switched From Macs to Windows :ninja:

Perhaps I should check with NI support.

Anyone else having the problem currently :question:

Thanks, Lou

Nope, no problem here. never seen this. Do you have sticky keys enabled in windows? This is in the disability aids section.

Hi Michael:

Good suggestion about sticky keys, but not the problem in this case. I'll keep you posted if I figure it out.
