This week I have become very familiar with the fact that the key combination "SHIFT+W" brings up the NAVWHEEL and this is a hardwired command in AutoCAD that cannot be changed. This has never caused any problems in the past as I rarely see the NAVWHEEL pop up while working. This week, however, I am working remotely and this has become a nuisance.
In my field, almost all text on a drawing is written in all caps. Therefore, I often have CAPS LOCK on. When I'm in the office, typing a CAPS LOCK "W" in the command line displays a "W". Since I've been working from home, however, whenever I type a CAPS LOCK W in the command line the NAVWHEEL pops up. This happens if I am trying to type a command such as WBLOCK or WEED, or if I am typing an option within another command, such as W for Window Select. I spoke with someone working in my office and had them run a test. When they typed a CAPS LOCK W they just got a W. Nothing else.
What I suspect is happening is that RemotePC, the program I am using to connect to my office machine, is converting all my CAPS LOCK letters and sending SHIFT+[letter] codes to the remote computer. Has anyone else seen this behavior? If so, were you able to correct it (other than turning CAPS LOCK off)?
