Numlock and Screen Edge Transition

[mr_v]

Hi,


First I have to say that this program is fantastic! I have been using
it for the past couple days and it is very fast and works perfectly,
even with my wacom tablet. I do have a few questions about the program
though, and if possible having a few features added.

Num Lock is turned on automatically when i switch back and forth from
computer to computer. Normally this wouldn't be a big deal for normal
keyboards, but I use a half keyboard and the num lock changes some of
my letters to numbers (similar to that of a laptop) so i need num lock
off at all times. Is there a way for ID to not turn it on by default
when i switch back and forth or possibly have that be an option in a
future release?

The second issue i seem to be having is I cant seem to use the screen
edge transition from my master system to the slave systems, it seems
to only work going from the slave to the master. Is there something I
might be missing to enable this? I have "no screen edge transitions
unchecked on both systems" and have the shift set as the hot key to be
able to go between systems.

Thank you!

If you open up Input Director on your master and switch to the "Master
Configuration" tab, you'll see a checkbox "Master Keyboard LEDs
reflect the status of the directed slave". If you uncheck this option,
Input Director will stop manipulating the Numlock, capslock and
scrolllock keys.

Can you give me some more information about your setup:

- How many monitors do you have attached to each computer?
- How have you configured the position of the slave monitor in "Master
Configuration"?
- Are you using a mouse or another type of input device to control the
cursor?

Try change the side of the monitor that is used to transition from the
master to the slave (e.g position the slave monitor above the master
in the "Master Configuration" tab and see if that works).

Regs,

Shane.
