composed character modifiers (^ , ' , " , ` , ~) not working

Post by ocf81 » 27 Jan 2013, 15:13

I've noticed that certain keystrokes will not work the way they normally work whenever I run HIDMacros. This even happens when I have no macros defined.

I've come to the conclusion that characters which are usually used as modifiers to accent certain letters in the Latin alphabet ( for instance,, ` + a would normally render à, but now renders ``a instead) are dumped immediately. I don''t know the code, but I think this is most likely due to some kind function or error in the code which makes this happen when the keystroke is detected. It would be great if this could be fixed. If this somehow isn't possible Is there a way to exclude certain keyboards so that this doesn't happen with my main keyboard?

Yes, known bug.
You just increased its priority a little bit on my TODO list.
