Originally posted this in the General Forum but thought it might apply here too.

Looking for a way to write a command for LSXCommand that locks the shell.
What I mean is, left/right clicking is unresponsive and all other keys/commands would be unresponsive.
Of course, one would still be able to access LSXCommand, but the only command that would function is the one to unlock LiteStep.

Thanks!
Chris

You could do it with some scripting I guess. Gonna be a REAL pain.

... or an easier way would be to create two identical themes and switch between them. 1 theme locked the other not. Though this isn't as exciting as having it scripted.

You can't disable the ctrl+alt+f1 menu without modifying litestep.exe

but you could make a hotkey to !none...I think...

but if you want to lock keys, you should unload hotkey.dll...

I doubt it, I've had
*Hotkey Ctrl+Alt F1 !About Detailed
for ages and it doesn't happen. And since ctrl+alt+f1 is not handled by hotkey.dll, unloading it wouldn't make a difference.

ctrl+alt+f1 was designed to be impossible to disable.

win+l is a system hotkey to lock your pc.
works on windows 2000, xp, and windows server 2003.

doesn't work here...always brings up my popup instead. :)

cause you don't have this in your config:
HotkeyNoWinKeyPopup true

on purpose

i'm sure devilboi :)
but now when i tried it WIN+L switches to the login screen, it doesn't lock anything. on the other hand it will if you use passwords for logging but no need for it at home :P

egonz, I believe you actually need to be using the classic logon. at home, if I hit win+l, it brings me back to the XP logon, and I DO have a password on my account.
