Any way to make the text just be in a set position on the monitor?

Also mouse clicks only appear for a breif moment.

Also the nearly opaque black bar is HORRIBLE. How to make this just be behind the text?

To set the position, go to settings, OSD appearance, and set the position of the OSD.

The mouse clicks delay visibility can be set at mouse options.

Only works once. After being closed, it is only showing keystrokes when SHIFT, ALT or CTRL is pressed. Doesn't show normal keystrokes or mouse clicks.

@crazycrinkle

You have it misconfigured. Go to keyboard section of settings and select what type of keys to display.

KeyPress OSD is an ample /big project. I doubt I'll ever port it to ahk v2. I see no added benefits to upgrade it to v2. I would only be better at (re)organizing the code.

If there are people who are interested to contribute to porting it to v2, I'm open about it.

PS. The project is still in development/maintenance, but for now, closed source [commercial edition]. Before I die, and if it is not going to be a sudden death, I plan to release it open source again.

Best regards, Marius.
