For me on 1.7 pre-release 1 prtsc works fine on Windows.

from kanata.

Hm maybe there's some window permission issue here. Kanata is sending all the right events.

yeah probably something from my side since only the kanata.exe doesn't work and the kanata_gui.exe works and 1.6 also works

from kanata.

That's an interesting observation. All of these use different bits of Windows I/O:

• kanata.exe 1.6 : no flags
• kanata.exe 1.7 : win_sendinput_send_scancodes
• kanata_gui.exe : win_sendinput_send_scancodes,win_llhook_read_scancodes
