childhoodbestfriend489 Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 (edited) Sometimes unexpectedly my cursor replaces text when I type on SL, it also becomes bold. How to change it? Edited March 31, 2021 by childhoodbestfriend489 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rolig Loon Posted March 31, 2021 Share Posted March 31, 2021 Stop hitting the INSERT key on your computer's keyboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not entirely sure what you're asking, but maybe have a look at http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlRemoteLoadScriptPin or http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/LlResetOtherScript depending on what you're trying to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to volunteer that I see this occur frequently and I know I haven't gone anywhere near the insert key. It can be toggled off once it's begun but it seems to me that it happens when you cursor into a text field and possibly cursor on top of an existing character rather than in between. I've seen it for ever and just accept it as one of those SL-oddities. I've got into the habit of checking the cursor shape and toggling insert off when I notice it's thicker than usual. ETA I see it with both LL's viewer and TPV's, it's not viewer-specific. Edited March 31, 2021 by Profaitchikenz Haiku Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't ever noticed the phenomenon myself, but then I might be missing it because I commonly hit that stupid Insert key by mistake when I am aiming for the Backspace key. As a natural reflex, I find myself toggling the Insert key several times a day to repair my clumsy typos. Now that you have alerted me, I'll start blaming SL instead of myself.

Lucia Nightfire Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 I have personally pulled out the insert key on my keyboard along with scroll lock, both Windows keys and the menu key. Anyone else go to such "measures"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The non-standard 'Ctrl+Q' shortcut in firestorm gets me all the time usually because I miss the shift key when typing.. wish we could turn it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Powertoys / Keyboard Manager - https://docs.microsoft.com/de-de/windows/powertoys/ I personally don't need it, I don't hit the insert key by accident, but I run the Powertoys for other purposes.

Profaitchikenz Haiku Posted April 1, 2021 Share Posted April 1, 2021 Both Linux and Windows offer tweaks to remap keys, although Windows 10 has the annoying habit of resetting the registry modifications at some updates, presumably it regards such modifications as taking liberties with what Windows should be like.
