Switches the Windows input language by simulating a Shift+Alt key press.<br />
<br />
<pre><br />
ToggleLanguageState()<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
== Arguments ==<br />
None.<br />
<br />
== Returns ==<br />
Nothing.<br />
<br />
== Details ==<br />
* The client sends four synthetic keyboard events to Windows: Shift down, Alt down, Shift up, Alt up. Windows treats this as its input-language hotkey, so the effect depends on the user's Windows keyboard settings.<br />
* The function reads no arguments; any arguments passed are ignored.<br />
* Use [[API:GetInputLanguageString|GetInputLanguageString]] to read the short name of the current input language afterwards.<br />
<br />
== Errors ==<br />
None.<br />
<br />
== Example ==<br />
From <code>default/ea_chatwindow/source/chatwindow.lua</code>:<br />
<pre><br />
function EA_ChatWindow.ToggleInputLanguage()<br />
ToggleLanguageState() -- Call the registered C function that "presses" and "releases" the "Shift+Alt" keys.<br />
EA_ChatWindow.OnLanguageToggled()<br />
EA_ChatWindow.SwitchChannelWithExistingText (EA_TextEntryGroupEntryBoxTextInput.Text);<br />
end<br />
</pre><br />
