Keyman has the function of disabling Caps Lock key.

Then is it possible to use this disabled/unused Caps Lock key just like any other normal key?

If yes, how can I do that?

If no, isn’t it good to include that functionality in the next version of Keyman?
Is there any problem with such usage of Caps Lock key?

Thank you for your attention. jsb.

Keyman is not designed to allow Caps Lock to be used like a normal key. As Caps Lock behaves uniquely, both virtually (on keyboard layouts) and often mechanically (on hardware keyboards), we do not recommend its usage as a normal key and have no plans currently to add such functionality in an upcoming release.
