Disabling the "Ctrl + Alt" combination #44

Do you have the latest copy of this repository downloaded? Ctrl Alt seems to be disabled now by default, I'll update the documentation to reflect this. How to enable/disable alternate configurationIn the windows-desktop-switcher/user_config.ahk Line 58 in b0a8008

Thanks a lot for the quick answer. Indeed, the script I downloaded on Sunday seems to be an older one. I love your software so much that I was ready to re-map my keyboard again if needed. Your documentation is extensive, and had enabled me to customize the user_config file already. I was using Virtual Desktop Enhancer before. Your program is more lightweight, and hopefully more robust. Hopefully we will be able to use it for as long as possible! |
@justmapping I'm glad you've solved the issue and thank you for kind words! Much appreciated. Regarding the tray icons, I've looked into it before and it would require more in-depth restructuring of code and testing + we think it may start to lose the lightwightness at this point, so I've left it out for now. Let me know if there's any robustness bugs, as I've developed some quickfixes for the ones I've encountered, but I am not sure if they're related to this particular repo, so I've not publicized them yet. Thanks again! |
Oh, and regarding the "working in the future", the only feature that at risk of this, is the one that uses the DLL - moving windows between desktops, other than that it should be well future-proofed |
Ok then thank you so much for going the extra mile with the DLL. I was so desperate that I almost gave up looking for a native solution. Right before that I even considered a non-native 3rd party solution (goScreen). Thanks so much again |
Thanks a lot for your great tool that has been a lifesaver so far!
I was using a similar software that is no longer maintained.
Is there any way to disable the "Ctrl + Alt" feature described below?
Using Ctrl + Alt instead of CapsLock also works, without any additional changes necessary (e.g. use + + 1 to switch to the Desktop 1, just as you would use + 1)
It keeps working even when disabling the CapsLock shortcut on the user_config.ahk file !
Many symbols require the "Alt Gr" (@, #, {) on FR keyboards.
Moreover "Ctrl + Alt" is equivalent to "Alt Gr" on such keyboards.
Therefore this default behavior is interfering a lot with my typing!
Is there any way to disable it?
You will see what I mean by referring to the AZERTY layout.
Many thanks!
