Send("{CAPSLOCK off}") does not work?

[Dirk98]

Guys, no problem with {NUMLOCK off}, {SCROLLOCK off}, but the CAPSLOCK does not change from On state to Off. Could you please suggest a solution?

Many thanks.

I can only add that it doesn't work for me either; I can't get it to work for or off or toggle, although sometimes toggle will make the CAPS LOCK led flash on briefly. Looks to me like the function is broken. Tried on a laptop and a PC but no good.

If other people have the same problem then try reporting it as a bug.

EDIT: the following post show that I just didn't know what I was talking about. I didn't know about Opt("SendCapslockMode",0).

Opt

SendCapslockMode Specifies if AutoIt should store the state of capslock before a Send function and restore it afterwards.
0 = don't store/restore
1 = store and restore (default)

Opt("SendCapslockMode",0)
Send("{CAPSLOCK OFF}")

Opt("SendCapslockMode",0)
While 1
    Sleep(300)
    Send("{CAPSLOCK toggle}")
WEnd

Beaten: yeah, like Manadar said.

hehehe

Opt("SendCapslockMode",0)
Send("{CAPSLOCK OFF}")
Send("{NUMLOCK OFF}")
Send("{SCROLLLOCK OFF}")
While 1
    Sleep(100)
    Send("{NUMLOCK toggle}")
    Sleep(100)
    Send("{CAPSLOCK toggle}")
    Sleep(100)
    Send("{SCROLLLOCK toggle}")
WEnd

Thank you very much, Manadar and Nahuel.

Nahuel, I'll use your code on Christmas eve.
