Temporary disabling by CapsLock causes confusion
Opened this issue · 7 comments
This is more of a suggestion / feature request than an issue report but...
I had a issue with the extension seemingly not working and I spent quite some time figuring out why. Fortunately I stumbled upon your explanation of how to pause it using CapsLock...
Believe it or not, but I sometimes actually use CapsLock for its main purpose, hence the issue. Would it be possible to remap the extension pause to something else? I saw you yourself mentioned ScrollLock somewhere.
In an ideal world it might even become a configurable shortcut, but I guess this is more work...
BTW. Thanks for the great extension :D
@jarzec it will be a lot of work to create a setting where you could assign a key binding. The alternative is to switch CAPS Lock with Scroll lock. The only issue is that not all laptops have Scroll lock.
@eduherminio, @giggio: What do you think about this change?

And can you do key combinations easily? Ctrl+CapsLock or Shift+CapsLock would do for example.
I'm fine with changing it to something else. Key combinations will not work, as we would have to press the key combination, and at the same type save: Ctrl+CapsLock + Ctrl+S.
Some type of setting would be better. At the time we discussed evolving it later. Adding a command to the File menu such as "Save without formatting", or a button to the button bar, or a button/checkbox that would enable and disable this easily.
My workflow is: disable, save, do some work, reenable. It should be easily accessible.
I'm afraid I can't agree with Scroll Lock option, due to not having it in my laptops and some of my keyboards.
Let's add some controversy here: how about Num Lock?
Same thing, we have some keyboards without num lock. Doh
