RE: [request] Flashing Keyboard LED's when message received
Hello, Thanks for this script it works great and i love it.

Just one thing, is it possible to make a key (ie. caps lock) stop the light from flashing. I ask this because i have a Logitech keyboard and when i am in a full-screen game Scroll Lock On - Scroll Lock Off, keeps on flashing on the bottom of the screen and its very annoying and sometimes i cant minimize to stop it.

If this can be done it will be greatly appreciated.

If some one can debug it and release it please be my guest :)
check your declaration of KEYEVENTF_KEYUP:

code:
var KEYEVENTF_KEYUP = '&H2'

A string is something with quotes put around, but
&H2 is not a string it is a hexadecimal number.

To define KEYEVENTF_KEYUP properly as a number:

code:
var KEYEVENTF_KEYUP = 0x02
.-= A 'frrrrrrrituurrr' for Wacky =-.

    }
}

//to change which light you want to blink change the
// Vk_scroll to VK_num for num lock or VK_caps for caps lock

//this turns the light off and on depending on the timers
function OnEvent_Timer(sTimerId){
    if(sTimerId == 'check'){
        //Debug.Trace('check');
        Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_scroll, 0, 0, 0);
        Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_scroll, 0, 2, 0);

            MsgPlus.AddTimer('check2', 100);
        else {
            Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_caps, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
            Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_caps, 0, 0, 0);
        }
    }
    if(sTimerId == 'check2'){
        //Debug.Trace('check2')
        Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_scroll, 0, 0, 0);
        Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_scroll, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);

            MsgPlus.AddTimer('check', 100);
        else {
            Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_caps, 0, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
            Interop.Call('user32', 'keybd_event', VK_caps, 0, 0, 0);
        }
    }
}

Set at the top if you want to have enable selectiving blinking. Set the emails if needed. If Caps Lock is on the script will only blink the scroll once, otherwise it will blink till you press Caps Lock, and it auto disables caps lock after its pressed.

Nice script! But it would be handy if there is an way  to don't let the led flicker when WLM is locked. But I really think it is a nice script!

this afternoon (CET) i'm going to make a configure interface so that you can configure which LED's have to flash and which don't.
And when it's ready and working without (much) bugs and everybody is happy about it, we can upload it to the MP!L scripts site ;)

Great script guys. But instead of caps lock can't i use some other key? Because in some games caps lock is used and i would prefer to use home, end or pause to stop the lights flashing.

Also when you code the configuration interface can you add a script on/off? Because i only want it to flash when i'm playing or something, not all the time.

If you try and don't succeed, cheat. Repeat until caught. Then lie.
