Can't open GS control panel in Windows

Open bmn001 opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

I'm trying to hit OpenApple-Control-Escape to reach the GS's control panel, and in Windows 10 it doesn't seem possible.

According to the docs, both Alt and F1 are recognized as the OA key. So...

When I hit Alt(OA)-Control(Control)-Escape(Escape), it just moves the gsplus window to the back of my active windows.

When I hit F1(OA)-Control(Control)-Escape(Escape), it opens the Windows start menu.

Am I missing something obvious?

I have the same issue. On Windows, Ctrl+Esc is hard-wired to open start menu. That's why the original emulators (GSPort, KEGS) have mapped F3 to emulator Esc key, but on GSPlus it's mapped to take a screenshot. As the keymappings don't seem to be configurable, there doesn't seem to be a way around it.

Same here...tried to see if I could work around it with AutoHotKey, but I haven't found anything that works.

Hold Esc down first then followed by Ctrl Alt gets into CDA on Win 10 for me

Same problem in linux! even worse, there is no workaround I could find.

Actually, holding the shift key in addition to the rest works!
