Title: Annoying: Ctrl-Shift-Esc not working (FC660M)
Post by: JackMills on Tue, 16 December 2014, 04:58:10

I have a Leopold FC660M and I am using the standard layout, but switched the CapsLock and LCtrl with a dipswitch.

Today I found something very annoying, Ctrl-Shift-Esc is not working because Shift-Esc is mapped to the tilde ~.  The moment I activate Shift-Esc scancode SC0029 is sent which should be tilde ~.

Nothing really incorrect in the behaviour, just very annoying, because I liked the Ctrl-Shift-Esc on Windows to open the Task Manager.

Would there be a way (AHK probably) to have a distinction in action between LShift-Esc and RShift-Esc?

And another thing, the LED on the insert doesn't work anymore after taking the cap off and placing it back. Probably damaged something during that action.

Yeah, that was one of the issues that I really didn't like about my FC660Cs. You should be able to use AHK like that, check the docs.
