IDE doesn't accept remapped Ctrl<-->CapsLock from PowerToys Keyboard

Using Windows PowerToys Keyboard Manager, I have swapped the left Ctrl
key and CapsLock key bindings. Now, for instance, in most apps I can
press CapsLock+S to save a file. However, the FP IDE key bindings
don't recognize those from PowerToys. I don't want to revert the
PowerToys bindings so any solution would have to be from the FP IDE.
(This would have to be a global swap of the left Ctrl key and CapsLock
key bindings. I don't want to do this for every individual key
combination.)
BTW - The PowerToys swapped keys work correctly as I'm doing this
current editing - e.g., CapsLock+C = copy to clipboard, CapsLock+V =
paste from clipboard.
Thanks,
Don C.
