I ran some of my windows applications in wine.
Everything works properly, only there is a "nuisance".
there are 5 application open at the same time, they have many things written in capital letters
When passing from one window to another the CAPS LOCK is reset.
I give an example:
From the first software, I entered the values of some product codes in upper case with the caps lock inserted
If I simply move on to another software ran in wine (es. sample placement manager), the keyboard write in lower case even if the caps lock is turned on ...
I also tried to open a single program, put the CAPS LOCK and then open a second one; the latter is presented directly in lower case.
I hope I was clear..
What can I do to solve this ???

Re: CAPS LOCK inverted caps lock with MORE wine windows
I can reproduce this issue if I start notepad twice in the same Wineprefix.
The misinterpretation of caps lock doesn't occur with different Wineprefixes.
Maybe someone else can also confirm this bug?

The bug has already been filed... Years ago!
See: Wine Bug 35907 - Caps Lock state gets confused with multiple processes/threads
I can confirm that using Wine Staging 4.1 - CAPS lock works correctly across multiple notepad threads.
The bug still present in vanilla Wine 4.1 ...
