- Problem: Working with Remote Desktop Connection, Shift-State acts inconsistent, or lowercase/uppercase characters not sent as expected (especially longer sequences of characters). Works fine in Terminal Server Client to the remote machine, or locally.
- Resolution: Replace MACROBAT.EXE with 2.17 version
- Download MacroBat.217 11/1/2006 (56k) (MD5: 09EFB9E1F726D413F20081332BE9840C) Only for Win32 Targets! (95 thru XP)
- Download and Note location on system where downloaded file is saved
- Using Windows Explorer, Open Program Files\Build-A-Board\Bin\Test
- Rename MACROBAT.EXE to MACROBAT.210
- Copy downloaded MacroBat.217 into Program Files\Build-A-Board\Bin\Test Folder
- Rename MacroBat.217 to MACROBAT.EXE
- Using Windows Explorer, Open Program Files\Build-A-Board\Bin\MSWIN
- Rename MACROBAT.EXE to MACROBAT.210
- Also Copy MACROBAT.217 into Program Files\Build-A-Board\Bin\MSWIN folder
- Rename MacroBat.217 to MACROBAT.EXE
- After adding file, open your project, and rebuild to update TARGET folders.
- Usage Notes:
- The 2.17 version adds on to the existing update to 2.16 - see MacroBat.exe 2.16 update.
- We recommend you only use this update only if you experience the problem indicated. Otherwise, the 2.16 version is preferred.
- Apparently the rapid generation of virtual keystrokes sometimes could cause a synchronization problem with the Remote Desktop Connection. This update inserts a 1 ms pause (Sleep) during the generation of the keystrokes, and this resolved this synchronization issue. Note that operation may be noticeably slower.
- This update also incorporates a BlockInput API call prior to the generation of virtual keystrokes.
