Caps Lock Doesn't Work Anymore

    When I turn the [Cap Locks] setting on and click a particle or on empty space, nothing happens. It used to delete any particle I clicked, but it doesn't anymore. Is anyone else having this problem, and how do I fix it?

    1) Right click does this/has done this for ages, deleting any particle.
    2) You aren't using Caps Lock properly. Press CTRL+ALT and click the element you want to erase when caps lock is on. If you select X, you delete anything. You can also pick whole categories to delete.
    3) ???
    4) PROFIT

    But it fits the joke.

    Why do you post stuff like that? It's even more spammy. Your post was pointless. Mine had use. Get out.

    I usually set right click to another element so I don't have to constantly switch between two.

    I've used Caps Lock to delete stuff since I started TPT a couple months ago, and it's always worked. I didn't have to hold any keys, and I could do either left or right click.

    I'm not sure what caused it to screw up, but it's working now anyway.

    You must have had something else CTRL-ALT selected (light blue), it defaults to the normal delete which means a CAPS LOCK click will delete anything. You could either restart powder toy, or CTRL-ALT click the delete tool.

    EDIT: i think i found the issue, CTRL-ALT clicking in the field will cause the CTRL-ALT selected element to... disappear.. I'm not sure why.
