Hi all I'd like to have multiple global hotkeys in my new app (to control the app from anywhere in windows), and all of the given sources/solutions I found on the web seem to provide with a sort of a limping solution (either solutions only for one g.hotkey, or solutions that while running create annoying mouse delays on the screen). Do...

I'm moving from Eclipse to Visual Studio .NET and have found all my beloved hotkeys except two: in Eclipse you can press ALT-(leftarrow) and ALT-(rightarrow) to visit recent changes you have made, something I use frequently to go back to where I was in some other file and then return.

I am fairly new to OSX development, so this may be easy but google has not been helpful. I am trying to bind an action to the media keys you find on newer Apple keyboards (Play, Pause , etc). It appears that you cannot bind to these keys using the regular hotkey API but it must be possible since iTunes clearly manages. Is there some tr...

Specifically FF3.5 (Mac) doesn't accept tabindex or focus on links at all. I have jquery 1.3.2 and js-hotkeys 0.7.9 running on my website. I have 4 forms on 1 page which I can switch between using a link. Now ...

Does anyone know why this might be and how to fix it? ...

Hi, I'm having the following issue in a WinForms app. I'm trying to implement Hotkeys and I need to process Key messages whenever the control is active, no matter if the focus is on a textbox within that control, etc. Overriding ProcessCmdKey works beautifully for this and does exactly what I want with one exception: If a user pr...

It'd be nice for them to be able to navigate through the entire page using only the keyboard, but I've been having problems when they end up in input fields.
