Lightweight and portable software application that shows a label and triggers sound whenever you press Caps Lock, Num Lock, Scroll Lock, or Insert #Caps Lock indicator #Num Lock indicator #Keyboard notification #Keyboard #Caps Lock #Num Lock
Keyboard Indicator is a lightweight tool designed as a solution to sound-code the activation of buttons like Caps Lock, Scroll Lock, Num Lock, and Insert when the machine has no LEDs for this purpose, or to simply increase awareness.
Why would you need or want such utility? Well, the answer is simple — you'll no longer mash buttons wondering why you're writing using capital letters only or why the numbers pad is unresponsive. Also, some games might employ the use of these buttons, making the app useful in that area as well.
As this application focuses on highlighting certain buttons, a UI is not really of much use. Upon installation, the tray area will be populated by new icons linked to the famous buttons.
When off, the shortcuts will display a blue background. Activating a button will turn the icon red and generate a status label along with a short sound cue, similar to shaking pebbles inside a plastic bottle. This is how you know if any of the targeted buttons are activated, by mistake or otherwise.
Even if it might seem like too tiny of an app for customization, you'll be pleasantly surprised to find out what it can be altered. Right-click any of the tray icons to open the settings pane. From there, you can change the label's colors, font, and opacity levels. You can hide borders, instruct the app to launch at startup, or enable/disable the sound cue.
You have total control over the labels. By default, the label will display the button's name and On/Off status, but you can edit those fields and make any message appear.
To summarize, Keyboard Indicator is a handy program for users who lack proper LED indicators or prefer to be noticed by both text and sound whenever one of the involved keys is pressed. Other than that, the app is responsive and quick, despite it having some winters behind.
