I didn't need that M key anymore anyway!

[MarkHolbrook]

Ok this has happened just a few times now.

Beta6 has been great for me. VERY STABLE and zero crashes but all I use the VM for is to run Delphi and Starteam. Both pretty simple straight forward programs that don't use must of the system.

Anyway after the machine at been in screen saver a few times and even parallels was in screen saver within XP I went in to do some Delphi editing.

I went to type in:

CMD_FTPUPDATELIST

and I could not put the M in. Nothing would happen when I hit the M key. This is like the second or third time this has happened and usually I restart the VM and it goes away.

But just add this to your list of minor fixes. Like I said, I don't need no stinkin M key anyway!

Of course you don't. Just get used to being called "ark". : )

Please remember that this is VM software - that's "Virtual M." The M key is M-ulated using the glyphs "!V!".

I get it... Virtual "M"... Arrrgh!

And just call me "ark"

You just need to reverse the polarity on W. Ask any Enterprise engineer!

It's very likely that you just had the "modifier key stuck down" issue. If it happens again, try pressing command, option, control, shift, etc. to help remind it that you're not holding them down.

Which brings up the idea of showing which modifier keys are down at the moment in the interface so that problem is more obvious!

I think they said they were going to fix the problem anyway, so it should be moot soon. Whenever we get another beta. Nudge, nudge.
