On Screen Keyboard In Application
Jun 22, 2010
I am creating a application for a touch screen computer/till of course, this means that I have to make a keyboard in my application so you don't have to mess around getting the keyboard out. I have multiple textbox's on my application and would like to know how to make the keys type into the textbox that is focused.[code]At the moment I was using this but this only puts the letters into the NameTextbox and also the NameTextbox doesn't appear to be focused.How would I get the keys to type into the textbox that is focused?

I am creating a "form1" and adding "WebBrowser1" . Let's say the URL that I put on the WebBrowser1 has a username and password. So that, this will require a on screen keyboard in order to type the username and password. In this case, I do not want to use external OSK (on screen keyboard), what I want is to create some numerik numbers or letters on my form1 with buttons and then type it on the URL.

Visual basic 2008.I want to make an on screen keyboard exactly like the one in windows. I have made one which uses app activation, but that only works with the one you write in your codding or using a combobox to select one. How do you make one that works with everything like the one in windows.

My touch screen keyboard is highly customizable interface and has every component I need except for sending keys, anyone see a problem with this. Originally when I was creating it I was going to use the Forms.SendKeys.Send() but it's a WPF application... no go. For starters VB.Net in its infinite wisdom decided it would not handle default form messages. Go figure.
Or perhaps, this is my real problem, I can't get the WPF application to stop getting focus. I want it to act like the windows touch keyboard, but Every action that occurs in the transparent WPF makes that application the active one. I want events to still occur but I need the active window to be the window you wish to type into, like notepad.
Any Suggestions on what I should do, to make my WPF not focusable and to send keyboard buttons to the focused (or other) window? PS, I'm using WPF in Visual Studio 2010 in Vb.Net (I can use C# Code to!)

This IS a project for the class. HOWEVER, this class is *NOT* a programming class, but is called "Usability Engineering", which aims its goals at creating a better user interaction. I'm not sure of what the "homework" policy is here, but what I am asking isn't for getting a grade, as the grade isn't based on my ability to program here. But nonetheless I am a C++ programmer at heart and VB makes me groan a little bit.
^ The program: Our goal with this project is to make a program with only five buttons (Aiming to be a cellphone type system, I know, the resolution is huge.), The buttons are the arrow keys, and enter. When the user selects a textbox, it changes the focus to the keyboard and then allows input via moving around and hitting enter.
My first problem right now, is that when I use my arrow keys, if I press RIGHT or DOWN, it will only go right, and if i press left or up, it only goes left.
The second problem, is that the buttons are out of order... when I am on "P", and press right, it actually hops down to the space bar button instead. I'm sure this is just some sort of container that can be modified, but I'm unsure of where it is.

I've adapted the code from this link to use the WinXP on-screen keyboard (osk) for a touch-screen application written in VB.NET v3.5. The osk fills the bottom half of screen etc. and behaves fine except for one little quirk. If the user clicks or taps anywhere on the 'background' area behind/between the virtual keys (within the main osk window), the color of the area changes to that of the keys when any further key subsequently gets focus. The outline of all keys is then lost because they are visually merged into the osk window background. The osk must then be terminated and re-launched to remove the confusing appearance.
This behaviour only occurs when the osk window is set to the child style (i.e. when the menu is hidden), using the SetWindowLong P/Invoke function - e.g.
SetWindowLong(OskProcess.MainWindowHandle, GWL_STYLE, WS_CHILD)
It's as if the entire area behind the keys is being treated as another key when tapped/clicked, whereupon its color is 'restored' after losing focus.Is there any way to intercept and somehow override the focus event of this osk background area?

I need to start and then minimise/normalise an instance of On Screen Keyboard from my app:
PID = Shell("explorer C:WindowsSystem32osk.exe",AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
seems to launch it okay but how can I then "find" it and minimise/normalise its window?Also, would it be better if I launched it differently? I've tried missing out the 'explorer':
PID = Shell("C:WindowsSystem32osk.exe", AppWinStyle.NormalFocus)
but this says "file not found"...

I'm creating a On-Screen keyboard for my application, and it supports skins as well.
Here's what I'm doing with the skins, I have a folder which contains some images and a xml file which maps the images to the keyboard, I want to be able to have the folder as a zip file like in Office 2007 (.docx) and iPhone firmwares (.ipsw), I know I can simply zip the folder and change the extension, what I need to know is how to read the files in the code.

I am making a program that will put a black mask over an application (like a full screened game). This black mask will fade in and out, depending on certain criteria. Is there a way I can do that with VB? It's to help me dim my monitor without having to push anything.

Is there Any way to handle the crtl + Alt + Del Key combination. Take for instance in a quiz application (Win Forms ), the user should not be able to switch to other windows till the test is over.
I'm able to capture the ctrl and alt key strokes individually, using c# standard properties. but once they user hits the del key . The control goes out of my appliation and windows handles it.

Ok, so I'm writing a basic windows form application in VB.net as you do and need to be able to raise keyboard events based on data received from the serial port. I'm able to receive the characters that I want (lets say a lower case c) and display them. Its also easy enough for me to find the keycode. What I want to do though is tell windows that key "c" has been pressed. The application is paired to a bluetooth terminal, I wanted to have the experience of writing the code behind this myself rather than using another library although it seems I've failed already. How would I go about doing this?
