Problems with keyboard on orbiter(onscreen)

[archived]

I'm having a bit trouble with typing on the keyboard while in a orbiter.
This is both on a normal orbiter and on a onscreen orbiter.

The problems is when either I search for a media, or is typing the name of a ripped DVD. Problem is that the key I press, is not always the key that appears. This is always a problem when I've typed the shift button.

Suggestions?

what keys you have problems with?

Space for one thing, and the shift is not working as it should. Pressing it while typing is one thing, but releasing it has function. It's still uppercase. I then have to press it again to get lower case.

This is when I copy a DVD onto the harddrive and tries to type in the name of it.

Exactly which letter i'm having problems with i'll get back to you on when I get home.

Hi,
I get the same problem ... I wonder if this could be linked to the kind of keyboard ... (I'm using a french keyboard ...)

1. space is already solved, but it's not available in .31
2. we need to find a solution for shift. i've added a bug report

Maybe, I'm using a local keyboard as well. Perhaps if we tested with a english keyboard? (I don't have one at the moment)

The difference is that english(us) keyboards is 101-keys, and other countries has more, mine got 104 keys.

Another thing I forgott to explain. A key might work well as lower case, but then shift is activated, it's suddenly a different letter on that key.
