Hotkey help.
Hotkey help.
I have been searching google for a couple days and i can't find anything on hokeys that work with unfocused/focused app....Can someone tell me how to make a hotkey that works for a unfocused app?
Did you try calling the native RegisterHotkey Method? You'll have to pInvoke it though
(dllimport etc)

Parameters
vKey [in]
int
Specifies one of 256 possible virtual-key codes. For more information, see Virtual Key Codes.
You can use left- and right-distinguishing constants to specify certain keys. See the Remarks section for further information.

Wow man ur going to have to learn to read API documentation... I mean, this is getting old. You can't just post everytime you don't know how to do something. atleast try to attempt it, post some source or something...
Once u find the function if u don't know how to use it its because u don't know C#... =/

try this one (you'll need to download this file from the web tough (don't have the link nao (reinstalled windows + it wasn't compatible with 2010 only 2008)).
(there may be another thing then Globalevent that u can use but haven't found it yet.)
Globalevent_KeyDown (object sender,object KeyEventArgs e)
{
switch(e.KeyCode)
{
case Keys. (*YOUR KEY*):
(exsample) timer1.start
break;
case Keys. (*YOUR KEY*):
(exsample) timer1.stop
break;
case Keys. (*YOUR KEY*):
(exsample) timer2.start
break;
(ect.)
}
}

}
in my opinion that should be done this way:
Code:
[DllImport("user32.dll", SetLastError = true)]
static extern Int16 GetAsyncKeyState(UInt16 virtualKeyCode);
private void backGroundWorker1_RunWorkerAsync(...)
{
while (true)
{
if (GetKeyState( your vk key in bytes (eg. 0x2D - VK_INSERT) ) < 0)
{
// you get here when your key is pressed
}
System.Threading.Thread.Sleep(50);
}
}

i had this code before but it didn't work that well i have to say most keys didn't even work.
Srry that i need to double post but the way to make a getasynckeystate to work is precisely the same as VB only then you wont need to add ; behind it:
if u make a form or something just use a timer like i do:

Code:
public void hotkeyTest()
{
Boolean hotkey1;
hotkey1 = GetAsyncKeyState(Keys.Multiply);
if (hotkey1 == true)
{
//your event
}
}
private void tHotkey1_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
hotkeyTest();
}
