Simulated Sticky keys don't release properly since upgrade
Posted: Wed Aug 23, 2023 10:25 pm
XMBC Version: 2.20.5
Installed or Portable version:Installed
Windows Version: Windows 10 Pro 22H2 Build 19045.3324
Mouse Information (brand/model): Logitech ERGO M575
Relevant Computer Information (CPU, RAM etc): Intel Core i5-7600 64-Bit, 3.5GHz, 16GB Ram
Did the problem occur after an upgrade of XMBC? (If so, from what version?): Yes. Unsure of previous version, upgrade was automatic. Uninstaller showed 2.19.2
Did the problem occur after a Windows update/upgrade? (If so, from what version?): No
How long have you used XMBC?: 2 Years
What language and keyboard layout do you use in Windows?: English(US)
I have a profile for for my CAD program which sets Mouse5 to a Simulated Keystroke of Sticky Shift-MMB and have my settings set to Reset sticky buttons when any other key or button is pressed (both options are checked). This lets me Orbit without having to hold any buttons and I can use LMB or whatever to exit. Up until now this worked great except for rarely locking my mouse input to the CAD program.
Ever since the auto-update to 2.20.5 2 days ago it won't release properly unless I click Mouse5 again. My usual habit is hitting Mouse5 to orbit and then LMB to exit but any time I do that only the mouse button releases but keyboard and mouse input are both mostly locked out: mouse is limited to cursor movement and keyboard only has function and modifier keys. I found I can press shift to release the input locks, but mouse input is still limited to only my CAD window, even the scroll wheel. Pressing Mouse5 twice again in CAD is the only way to completely reset the inputs and give me full access to my system.
I tried restarting the PC, recreating the Profile, uninstalling XMBC and reinstalling with a "reset" of the settings, nothing has worked.
Hopefully the problem's just a setting I've overlooked that got switched during the update because learning new habits is time-consuming and frustrating. Thanks in advance for any help.
Edited to Add: Simulated Keystroke is set to mode "8 Sticky"
