Capslock issue

[Guest tmcradnet]

I am having a problem with caps lock. I have an app that registeres a hotkey when you are in one application but (theoretically) frees up the key when you are in any other application. Right now it works fine until a user pushes caps lock. When a user pushes caps lock all letters are in lowercase. I saw some examples on this forum but it doesn't seem to work. I simplified my code to test this out, basically if you are in freecell the message box pops up but once you go into word the capslock doesn't register.

Thanks

WEnd



Func FunOne()
If WinActive("FreeCell") Then
        MsgBox(4096, "MenuBox", "You are in FreeCell", 10)

    Else
            HotKeySet("i")
            Send("i")
            HotKeySet("i", "FunOne")

    Endif

EndFunc

That didn't work, infact it made it so that I can't use the shift key to capitilize it.

Any other suggestions?

Is there a way I can pause a script when a window isn't active and then reengage it once it is selected?

Try this:

HotKeySet("i", "FunOne");inverts image
HotKeySet("+i", "FunOne")

While 1
   Sleep(100)
WEnd



Func FunOne()
   If WinActive("FreeCell") Then
      MsgBox(4096, "MenuBox", "You are in FreeCell", 10)
   Else
      HotKeySet("i")
      HotKeySet("+i")
      Send("i")
      HotKeySet("i", "FunOne")
      HotKeySet("+i", "FunOne")
   Endif
EndFunc

This script basically does that. It keeps running (in the background) until the window is active. However, if you just want the script to pause, take a look at WinWaitActive() or WinExists().

Edit: code looked strange
