Optional Alternative OSK Method - HOW ?

**grnikolis** · 05-03-2005, 05:34 PM

Hello Ninja,

in the latest update of MM you note:

>In the skin.ini you can now specify to use an alternative
>method for sending the key. This will help in cases where
>certain foreign keys are sent incorrectly (e.g. í)

How can we do that? What is the alternative method and how is it activated?

Thank you.

PS
Shaun, I haven't forgotten you, just getting the requirements from those that are interested in the project I told you.

Would be glad to know that too..

Place an extra value of "1" after the key you want to use the alternative method, for example instead of:

A=86,43,43,43,065

use

A=86,43,43,43,065,1

OK thanks,
but what is the difference between 'normal' and alternative mode?

Under normal mode some people were having trouble with foreign characters not registering, so this uses an alternative API method to send the key... nothing interesting really!
