Changelog
v1.3

- Language Italian
- Update Id & Build number for automatic updates

Fixed:
- Reading & writing of config files. This should resolve the problems that occur when updating to a newer version.


v1.2
added :
- Removed options "when status is : BRB, Idle, Out for lunch, On the phone"
- Added languages : French, Dutch, German

v1.1
added :
- Select in which status(es) it has to flash / beep
- Set the speed of flashing / beeping
- Set amount of flashes / beeps

fixed:
- You now don't have to delete your old config file anymore.. so you can now just replace the old script

Translations:
If you have a new or an improved translation for this script, please PM me.

Recommendation:

Only let your scroll lock LED flash(or make your computer beep), because flashing caps and/or numlock can be very annoying when you are typing texts

When i click the option to make my Box beep (system beep or whatever it's called) it beeps - but then will not stop beeping.

When the lights flash they only flash for about half a second - maybe there could be a delay, or make them flash 5 times in a row or something?

Also after the lights have flashed they are all set to off afterwards, would it be possible to set them to restore to however they were before?

If the system-beep only beeped once or twice this would be very usefull to me.

i got it i cant c the led flashing on the num and caps and scroll but i can hear the beeps i got a laptop by the way...but wat a gr8t script

You can also delete the folder manually, but just deleting the script and installing the new version is easier

it works fine for me, even the beeping

cool. but my keyboard has a F lock ket+LED and i was wondering if you could somehow get that to flash because i dont have a scroll lock button or LED

hmm, I can't find the keycode for that button..
but I've made a small program which tells you the keycode for that button..
If you just execute it, press the F-lock button and send me the keycode, then I can try to make it flash..
cause I don't have a keyboard with that button..

and if somebody could do the same for the FN button on logitech keyboards, then I can fix that too

download keycode program here (.NET Framework 2.0 required.. download here)

GREAT SCRIPT! DarkRider, thanks a lot This is very nice

But I have 2 small requests for you, sure they are not hard to make
1: Like already requested by Jellings, it would be nice if beep not continued non-stop until you focus the chatwindow, but beeped once or twice and stopped by itself not waiting for your action
2: For status selection, I would like to have not a dropdown list but a list of statuses with a checkbox. I would like to activate script when my status is either Busy or Idle. At the moment I can choose only 1 status.

I am looking forward to the new version, thanks for the great script anyways, and thanks in advance if you implement these features in the next release

doesn't work at all for me

maybe because i don't have keyboard LED's, could you make my keyboard beep?

also my computer doesn't beep?

Well I don't think that keyboards have speakers If your computer doesn't beep when you turn it on, then it's likely that the speaker inside your PC isn't connected... And there is no script available that can fix that Maybe there should be an option to play a MP3, WAV file etc. Through the computers normal speakers?

Watch out when using a Keyflasher when using, in my case:
A Laptop with external keyboard like Microsoft Office Keyboard (USB).
After a while the computer will hang, everytime.

Sometimes you can start the keyboard after removing (and perhaps inserting it again) the USB cable for the Keyboard, but sometimes you have to brutally remove the the battery and the electric cable to be able to restart the computer.

If you have large harddisks (More than 80 Gb) filled with data a restart with the follwing Scandisk will take about an hour!

This is not just happening for "KeyFlasher". This happens with all programs that I have tested using a similar Flasher for the keyboard.

i may be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the F-Lock key is an internal bi-stable switch, which diables the F-Keys and replaces them with new keys... No actual code gets sent to the controller when the key is pressed...

Sent v1.1 to the scripts database.. I'll post here when it's online there..
or just keep an eye on the database site

I have had this same problem with v1 and v1.1: When I click OK in the config box, nothing happens. This means that I can't turn any options on since all the changes get lost when I click the X in the top corner.

When I go through the debugging process I get this when I open the config dialog:

code:

---

Error: Automation server can't create object.
       Line: 375. Code: -2146827859.
Function OnEvent_MenuClicked returned an error. Code: -2147352567

       Line: 526. Code: -2146823281.
Function OnConfigWindowEvent_CtrlClicked returned an error. Code: -2147352567

ehm, i think you have to install the latest version of ActiveX
because it gives an error when creating the configfile and when you click ok, there isn't a config file to save it to..

v1.1
added :
- Select in which status(es) it has to flash / beep
- Set the speed of flashing / beeping

Can you make it that if you set it to flash 5 times, it goes on and off 5 times. And then stops?
Because when i'm gaming it messes with my typing (scroll-lock) @ will become 2 etc... kind of annoying.

Thanks! Nice update Like it!

hmm, i noticed a bug in the flash ... times feature. I've sent the debugged version to the database. it'll be online soon

Didn't give any error.
Thank you for uploading the new one

p.s. great script

well it starts beeping when someone replies, also when the window is focused and the cursor is blinking, but as soon as i type something, it stops beeping

Edit: This only happens when I have flashing disabled and beep enabled. As soon as i enable one of the flash led settings + beep it works.

sorry for that, the flashing works fine, its the beeping that goes wrong

---

Found the problem.. and fixed it
will be fixed in next version..
but do you mind using the beep in combination with scroll-lock and wait until next version?
or do you really want this fix now?

How can I access the config screen..
when I double click on the script, a window with the code appears in WLM...

You can do it in the convo too.
Also at the msgplus icon.

I have a few questions about this script:

1. In the config panel, do I need to select every status if I want the LEDs to flash whatever status i'm in, or just leave the whole section blank?

2.  Does ms mean milliseconds in the flash speed section?

3.  If I do not do anything in the bottom checkbox, does it flash at all?

4.  Do the lights flash even if the convo window is open

Alternatively, is there a user guide or help file anywhere?

Thanks

Well if you are watching a DVD, then the chances are that the messenger window wont be focused... If someone comes online and talks to you, it opens a unfocused window anyway, so it SHOULD flash... Test it if you are unsure Sometimes you have to find things out for yourself...

Cloudy

have you tried watching a fullscreen dvd with your flasher on??
it should flash.. whether your conversation window is open or not

It works.. i have been playing, watching movies etc.. it flashes as soon as i get a message...

For example, if Caps Lock is On and Flash CapsLock LED too, when I focus the window the Caps Lock will stay Off, instead of On, could you fix that?

Also, I don't know if this has to do with the tabs, but sometimes the WLM doesn't play a sound when I receive a message, could you add a button to always play a sound?

i love the idea for this script and have read the forum and installed the script but when i go to configure it it won't let me press ok so it hasn't worked could some1 plz explain that?

and wat do i do to fix it?

hi,
i have a stupid question : how can i access the config menu ??? I installed the script but it doesnt seem to work. The only thing I can doo is ti edit the script itself ..

thanks

Normally its on a chat window>Messenger Plus (Near bottom)>then the script. Also don't think its stupid to ask something you don't know

Thanks

Mine doesn't work.
Maybe it is because my Live Messenger is configured to appear in Spanish.

Is this the problem or it could be something else?

Very nice script.

A little suggestion: it would be nice if the leds would get their initial state (on/off) back after I opened the conversation window. You just need to save the state before flashing the led and to put it back after the conversation window is opened.

Another suggestion: if we press the right led key, the right led would stop flashing. For example, if I want the Scroll Lock led to flash, if I press the Scroll Lock key during it is flashing, the key would stop flashing and get back to his initial state.

If you want to do something more harder, you can even add some new options. If one contact is talking to me, one led flashes, if two, then two leds would flash, ... You can add another timer to flash the led only a few seconds. Well, there are a lot of things you can do with this script, I love it.

Sorry about my bad English, I'm trying to do my best and I think you can understand.

a little request, I think it won't be hard to implement.
My laptop doesn't have a scroll lock light and the num lock and caps lock lights are not that visible either. This script could simply "flash" the mute option in the sound card. I have a big light for that, but if I'm listening to music I would also hear it. Please tell me this is so simple to implement it will be done.

i have a slight problem with this script - i often can't turn num lock on i've got the convo window open, cos when i press the button, the light goes on while the num lock key is depressed, but then goes off again when i let go.  Can this be solved?  (i know i could just opt out of flashing num lock, but is there anything that could be changed in the script?)

Hello, I am using a Xbox 360 Controller for Windows, and I was wondering if you could make flash the Ring of Light ( you know what it is, don't you ? ). Even if I am using a PC, I think this should be useful : http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/UsbInfo
Sorry if it's not, I don't know much about programming ...
Thanks

mine doesnt work for some reason i cant get to the config window i even tried typing the / cmd n it still didnt work y not?

haven't used that.. thx for pointing that out.. i'll fix that !

but you can open the config window by clicking the msgplus icon in your main window or a chatwindow (the little coloured icon.. 5th icon from left) and going into the keyflasher menu

I was wondering if you could make the leds on the logitech g15 keyboard flash. I'm pretty sure it can be done threw software, so it should be possible.

What leds do you mean exactly? The backlight?

If so, you can do this quite easily. There is a plugin for Winamp that does this, so it might be possible for WLM to do this, probably through a DLL file...

yeah the backlight, that would be awesome!

BTW, thanks sypher, i just got rays winamp plugin its pretty kool

would it be possible to fix the flasher so that if you are using the handwriting tab and a msg is sent (the convo is already focused) the flsher will not activate?

cuz i'm using handwriting with a frnd, the frns msgs me and the flasher starts going

its not the reciving a handwritten event, its when i'm in the handwritten and recieve a non-written message.

eg. i'm in the process of drawing a pciture, my contact sends me a textline msg, the flasher is going while i'm drawing my picture

Heyz,

I was wondering if your FN key application you built for some guy earlier in the thread will work on my HP keyboard (no, I'm not on a prebuilt, i got it for $4 at my school computer markets), so when I get a new IM the orange LED flashes. Also when I press the Messages button make the window come into focus. Thanks if you decide it's a good idea, if it helps (I don't think so, I couldn't find anything on it on google) the modle number of the k/b is SK-2505.

I just tried it now, and it comes up as 0.

Well, I don't think I can make your message LED flash..
it might be possible with some advanced DLL script, but I'm not advanced enough for that.. sry

Hi!

Is it possible to make the leds (or just the scroll lock led) also flash when Windows is locked (i.e. pressing the windows logo key + L)?

If you can do that, I'll start worshiping you!

If this is implemented, DON'T let the caps flash if your account is password protected

Originally posted by Jesus
As for the script: I like it, but I'd like to see the script being able to just change the LED's status without altering the key's state.
eg. if you select the caps led to flash, don't make it switch caps on and off all the time. I think this should be possible because I once had a WinAmp visualization which flashed the leds (num-low, caps-mid, scroll-high) without changing the actual status.
edit: if this is too hard, make the leds return to their initial status instead of turning them off once the flashing ends.

This is script is great!

I dont read the whole post, but there are some things that can be improved:

- It doesn't work (flash) when someone send you a file. Is it possible to make it work on that situation too?

- Is it possible to make it stop flashing? Just turn it on when something is received and after you read it, it goes off? That would be much better in my opinion!

Congrats for this

DarkRaider,

sorry, I think I didn't make myself clear.

What I meant with my last sentence was:

When you receive something (a message or file, whatever) instead of blink the scroll lock key, an option to just turn it on to alert.

The only reason for me to ask that, it's because blink can sometimes be reaaaally annoying. Imagine yourself watching a movie on PC or just running some full screen application. So you receive a message, and your keyboard will not stop blinking that LED until you read the message.

Just turning on the scroll lock key and after reading it turning it off, would be great!

Hmm..I just started using this KeyFlasher.
Pretty good. But.. if you have tried stuffplug before..
You should know that, they can do let the LED blinks without interrupting your typings.Or may be..I was wrong?

Oh?So your scripts were released earlier than stuffplug.Dang..I was late then.Lol..Well done there..But then,is it possible to let the LED flash only? specific ascii codes for it perhaps?

i am using ths script for 1 year

it's one of the best

if i am playing a game wich uses all the screen, and the messenger is blocked, the keyboard advised me

i really like it

Of late, the scroll key doesn't go back to its default state when I see the message (it stayed on even though it was off earlier).
Also, even when I bring the chat window on top, it doesn't stop my scroll lock light flashing. I need to click the message box
Could this be fixed?

You can find the configuration window trough the plus-script-menu (the icon with the coloured cubes).. in the main window, AND in the chat windows

I hope this is clear enough...

I installed the script, but now, even when no-one says anything, the caps lock, scroll lock and num lock buttons don't work (the buttons do work, but the keyboard doesn't show it) and now the flashin doesn't work either, i set the options from configure menu.

I found this script very useful, but there is one thing, that holding me from using it: when it's flashing it doesn't allow my monitor automatically go to standby (if it was in standby at the moment new message received, it turns on monitor) and on Windows 7 it doesn't allow use ALT + TAB (window selection menu pops up for a brief moment and dissapier) .

Any work around this issue?

Thank you.

Here is a "KeyLed DLL" that allows control keyboard LEDs without emulating key press.

And this is vbs example that came with the dll package:

code:

---

'----------------------------------------------- Script by Boris Toll / 2005
Option Explicit

Dim KeyLeds, Counter
Set KeyLeds = CreateObject("Key.Leds")

Do Until Counter = 10

    if KeyLeds.LedStatus("NUMLED") = 0 then
        KeyLeds.LedOn("NUMLED")
    else
        KeyLeds.LedOff("NUMLED")
    end if


    if KeyLeds.LedStatus("CAPSLED") = 0 then
        KeyLeds.LedOn("CAPSLED")
    else
        KeyLeds.LedOff("CAPSLED")
    end if


    if KeyLeds.LedStatus("SCROLLLED") = 0 then
        KeyLeds.LedOn("SCROLLLED")
    else
        KeyLeds.LedOff("SCROLLLED")
    end if


    wscript.sleep 500
    Counter = Counter + 1
Loop

Eh, yes, you are right...false hope...will keep digging. There must be a way to do so!

Sorry my question but isn't easyer to disable the script when you want your monitor to go to standby?
Also you can set a number of flashes you want.. so the script will flash and than stop... so your monitor will go to stanby too

AND, no the greatest idea, still you can turn your monitor off

'Play a beep'

Would it be possible you made a textbox so we could define how many beeps or how long?

Yes, this is an old post but there's no-ware else I can put this

there already is a textbox that says "flash x times" ..
x also counts for 2 beeps

i was using KF 1.0 here on this computer and was fine, now i've updated to 1.2 and it stopped working
when i try to open the plugin, i get 3 blank options, i'm attaching a pic of it...

i'm using windows 7, lastest version of both wlm and msgplus!!!

thanks in advance!!!


EDIT: NVM i did it, fully uninstaled it, then installed it, then worked, last time i only updated!!!

After I update the Key Flasher to 1.2, The script show blank instead of word in plugin drop-off menu, i cant get into the option

ps I am using a Traditional Chinese MSN

I have tried to add a 'default' in the 'SetLanguage' like this
"
default:
        LangMenuConfigure = 'Configure';
        LangMenuEnable = 'Enable Script';
        LangMenuDisable = 'Disable Script';
        LangMenuCredits = 'Credits';
break;
"
And it show words instead of blank in the plugin drop-off menu again, but it still cant enter into the option.
It seems the problem cause by launguage setting

do it as i did, delete the plugin, install it again...
worked for me

I sent a new version to the Script DB. When it is released, these problems should be solved.
There were problems with the correct saving and reading of the new config file after an update, but those have been resolved now.

If you wish to add new languages, please mail me, and I'll provide you the details to translate it.

i will leave this here in hopes that sometime soon, that key-press problem can be fixed

i love the script, and use it all the time (disabling when it causers problems) and id love to see it flash the LEDs without emulating the key-press

personally id try to fix it myself, but i cant make heads or tails of the scripts >.<

I have an issue with this script, I can't configure it. I use WLM version: Windows Live Messenger 14.0.0416 and the KeyFlasher 1.3 version.

Also the menu when clicking the Plus icon that should be visible isn't there.

I reinstalled the plugin several times on different computers.

When I enter the /ledblinkerconfig command Plus says that the command doesn't exist.

What am I doing wrong?
