rkanders Posted March 21, 2008 Report Share Posted March 21, 2008 I do like the auto tool, but still quite often end up using TAB to change tool selection. This often leads to pushing Cap Lock instead . Caps Lock also is fairly useless so here are some tips on how to remap it. http://johnhaller.com/jh/useful_stuff/disable_caps_lock/ I remapped mine to Tab. Tab scancode is 0f, here is .reg file contents that do Caps to Tab remap. Reboot after adding this to the registry (log off/in might work as well) Reinis #put this in .reg file: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Keyboard Layout] "Scancode Map"=hex:00,00,00,00,00,00,00,00,02,00,00,00,0f,00,3a,00,00,00,00,00 Quote Link to comment

It must be like sitting behind a german computer (entschüldigung) where I tried to type in my password, which contained a 'q' you know under the 1. Uhm, no that's where the 'a' is located...

Uhm, no that's where the 'a' is located... That must have been a Belgian (AZERTY) keyboard instead. German is QWERTZ And are you saying you use the Caps Lock at all? For me that is the most useless key on every keyboard and since I use LabVIEW (and have not adapted to auto tool selection) the one that causes probably the single most sh.. exclamations by far.
