HMG uses RegisterHotKey WinApi function to implement ON KEY command.

This function has a limitation on non-Win9x system. The limitation is that F12 is not available.

Please take a look at: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library ... S.85).aspx

The relevant info is the following:

Code: Select all

Windows NT4 and Windows 2000/XP: The F12 key is reserved for use by the debugger at all times, so it should not be registered as a hot key. Even when you are not debugging an application, F12 is reserved in case a kernel-mode debugger or a just-in-time debugger is resident.

Roberto.
