Add setting to disable LED interaction when compose key is CapsLock or NumLock

[moon-chilled]

Can there be an option to change this behaviour?

[samhocevar]

Is the caps lock feature really toggled, or are you just seeing the LED light up during the compose sequence? The LED lighting up is a feature.

Note also that the compose key can always be “pressed by itself without any other keys”. It is not a modifier key.

Ah, that is right, the keyboard light is on but there is no caps-lock behaviour. Still, I would like it to be off; is there a way to get that behaviour?

[samhocevar]

This was implemented upon user request (#82, #165). I will add an option to disable the behaviour.

That is an awesome feature that should be available even if another key is chosen as ⎄ Compose. Same with the lights for Scr Lock and Num Lock.

Hi! The new feature is ready and will be available in the next release.

• For @moon-chilled: set this option to “Disabled” and WinCompose will never interfer with the keyboard LEDs
• For @greywatcher : set this option to “Num Lock” and the Caps Lock LED will be lit during sequences even if your compose key is not Caps Lock
• For everybody else: leave the option to “Compose” and the current behaviour will apply

This bug is fixed in WinCompose 0.9.4. Thanks for your patience!
