G'day All,
My Microbloat keyboard has developed an interesting condition. The y key will work in lower case, but if Caps Lock is active nothing appears on the screen.
This is annoying as I have my own flight planning software that requires airport identifiers, most of course beginning with a Y. For ease of readability I like my idents in CAPS.
I need to switch to lower case text, shift Y, caps lock on, and type the rest of the identifier, each time I enter a new waypoint, or hold the shift button while entering all idents.
Trivial I know, but the y key must be OK as it works in lower case, why would it not work if CAPS LOCK is on?
Maybe I just do too much planning and have worn out the y key, time for a new keyboard.
Regards,
Two Dogs
