Caps lock warning

IUGeek — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 14:51:35 GMT

Whenever I'm rigging a character, I put all of the control names in all caps, as a naming convention that shows that the user is supposed to use that control. Anything else, they're supposed to leave alone. However, if I turn on caps lock to do all of my naming, I get a warning in the viewport "CAPS LOCK ON". This is extremely distracting, because it makes me think something's wrong, but I can't for the life of me find a way to disable it. Can anyone point me to the correct setting?

Thanks!

Hi @IUGeek

This setting is on by default however if you want to disable it, simply go to Diplay->Heads Up Display->Caps Lock.

This should disable the warning from appearing.

Please let me know if this helps or if you need any more assistance!

I looked up how to disable the 'CAPS LOCK' notification which pops up constantly as I'm working. Someone suggested to open 'display' How do you open display on 2024 LT?
