i defined these hotkeys

sometimes if i'd press >+<+u it would produce 'ü' instead of 'Ü'. whatever key gets disabled in this way, stays consistently disabled for the whole session. the only way to fix this, is to move the bugged hotkey up or down one line and reload the script. although the next session may work, it can become bugged on another one.

EDIT

SendPlay on Win7, Run as admin and disable UAC

unfortunately it didn't help. i also tried sendinput and send. in both cases the uppercase ä didn't work.

(i'm logged in as an admin and turned off uac a long time ago)

Those are some interesting hotkeys. What are they used for?

I ask both out of curiosity and because there's likely a better way to do this (whatever 'this' is).

they send unicode chars for german umlauts (äöü ÄÖÜ)
>+ is right shift, <+ left shift

i mapped them to right shift, because it doesn't trigger anything when pressed alone and ctrl is already in use.

On my system it always produces 'ü' until you move the >+u<+u hotkey up, then it always produces 'Ü'. This is the behaviour I had expected - you need to put the more specific hotkey first.

If you're still having problems, I'd suggest defining both hotkeys together and using GetKeyState:

Btw, my keyboard hardware is incapable of detecting "a" (or "sdfjkl;") when both shift keys are held down.

when i changed it to



i would be unable to type Ö and Ü.
but it works with getkeystate, so thank you for the advice.

I'll have to take your word for it, since it works perfectly for me. (Even Ä, since I'm now using a different keyboard.)
