I'm having trouble simulating character keypresses when a non-English input keyboard language is being used in Windows. I tried calling SendInput() with KEYEVENTF_UNICODE: KEYBDINPUT ki; INPUT input; int character = 0; ki.wVk = 0; ki.wScan = character; ki.dwFlags = KEYEVENTF_UNICODE; ki.time = 0; ki.dwExtraInfo = 0; input.type = IN...
I'd like to write some simple javascript as a music page-turner. I've got it working fine with mouse events, but my wife isn't deft enough to click a mouse with her foot while she's playing piano. Keyboards, being bigger and less inclined to move around, seem like a better solution, but I can't get the keyboard events to catch after th...
I'm building a mega menu where I want to be able to trigger the menu via both a hover (using the mouse) and focus (such as tabbing to it via the keyboard). This is what I'm presently doing: $(".megaMenu-trigger").focus(function (){$(this).hover()}); $(".megaMenu-trigger").hover(function(){ // do the stuff }); This works, but am w...

I have a utility that I use as a pseudo "shell". It basically while()'s stdin for commands and runs them through different subroutines. My question is, is there a module or some example I can use to work toward trapping the up arrow so that I can have it perform a certain action? I plan to incorporate a previous command function similar...

I have a problem in Python. I'm using Tkinter and have four bind events, that listen to key presses on my form. My problem is, that these don't run asynchronously.

Will it possible in Adobe Air/Flex? If yes, provide me some examples? Thanks i...
Hi, The following feature needs to be implemented to our existing QT & C++ application. We have to expand the user typed abbreviations into pre-defined words(s). The functionality we need to implement is something similar to text expander. Say if a user typed "FL", this needs to be replaced to "Florida" after immediately. I was able t...
I'm working with an on-screen keyboard that needs to send key strokes to a third party application. They are running on Windows XP. A small set of characters that are not available on the US English keyboard need to be supported (such as "å" or ñ). After reviewing SendInput it seemed like the safest thing would be to send the hex unicode...
Hi everybody! I'm logged into a virtual machine using vmware workstation 6.5-7.0.1 or vmware player 3.0.0. I'm working inside the virtual machine. Then I press a key (for example the Delete-Key, but it should work with every key) inside the virtual machine. I want to recognize the "key-press-event" in my C# application which is runni...

I'm kind of writing a little game engine -- purely to understand how these work from the inside. I currently don't want to mess with OpenGL or DirectX, so I stick to drawing on a control with GDI+ and all that WinForms stuff. Obviously, I need to handle input. More specifically, keyboard events. This, however, poses a problem: protecte...
I'm writing a Java application to automate character actions in an online game overnight (specifically, it catches fish in Final Fantasy XI). The app makes heavy use of java's Robot class both for emulating user keyboard input and for detecting color changes on certain parts of the screen. It also uses multithreading and a swing GUI. ...

Hey all, I've been making this login form in C# and I wanted to 'submit' all the data as soon as the user either clicks on submit or presses the enter/return key. I've been testing a bit with KeyEvents but nothing so far worked. void tbPassword_KeyPress(object sender, KeyPressEventArgs e) { MessageBox.Show(e.KeyChar.ToString()); }...
