Rapid Mouse Movement By User
Jul 9, 2011
The code I have is meant to be used during possible rapid mouse movement by the user. It is supposed to get the current location (works), move to specified location (works), mouse down(works), mouse up (works), then return the mouse to the old position. I added the delay because it seemed that it was having trouble registering the click if done too quickly. The problem I am having is that if the user is moving their mouse during the time the code is activated, their movement can throw the location of the mouse down or mouse up events off even with the added check routine I added.
'Get current mouse position
Dim MousePosX As Integer = Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.X
Dim MousePosY As Integer = Windows.Forms.Cursor.Position.Y
Q = True
'Move mouse to Q Location and click
[Code] .....

I recently developed a software called MouseMe, which basically records mouse movement and mouse press events. The software itself is in BETA, and I am looking for some testers to have a go at my program.

how to get VB to detect mouse movement, clicks and keyboard presses. I am creating a screensaver program that does not intergrate with the windows screensaver.
The reason I am doing this is because I am trying to invent a screensaver that people can use their custome pictures to see with password protection for their PC when the screensaver facility has been disabled on a domain.

I have a picturebox (X=1200,Y=800) and there is an area in the picturebox starting at (X=32,Y=32 and is 256x256 in size). I want to keep the mouse pointer in that area for awhile.
Is there a command in vb that lets you do this? If not, can you restrict the mouse to one control?

I've got a very simple screen saver program that displays alot of stuff in pictureboxes and labels...dynamic display. I want to end the program on any keystroke or mouse movement. I've placed the statement "me.close()" in Public Sub Form1_KeyDown routine (Form1/Events). Nothing happens when I type though. I've seached the forums.....keypreview is true....

if its possible to have mouse events like mouse movements, mouse clicks and so on in a specific window only. I'm not sure if you understand this so ill give you an example.
Okay lets say i want this program to only click within a window like Firefox or windows media player only. So that means if i minimize the window it will still click inside that window while its minimized, and i could continue doing other things while its clicking inside that window.

I am want to play a prank on my friend by reversing the movement of the mouse. Like if the user moves the mouse, on the monitor, it will go in the opposite direction.
User - - -Monitor
UP------Down
Left-----Right

how to create a Auto repeated Mouse movement.I wanna create a Form, with a button "start 01" and "start 02",so if I click on "start 01" button, and i open my other applications, and once I hit the F1 button (on my keyboard) the mouse will auto move from point A to B, and it will keep on repeat until I hit the F12 button, then it will stop auto moving.and if I click on the "start 02" button, and II open my other applications, and once I hit F1 button (on my keyboard) the mouse will now move from D to E, and it will keep on repeating it until I hit the F12 button, then it will stop auto moving.

So I have been working on some code that is a supplement to a video game that I play (doesn't really give me an advantage, I'm against cheating) as recreational programming to get me to learn more things which apparently is working immensely.The video game is called DoTA which is a custom map in Warcraft 3.
What I am trying to do is to make a program that can manually click the skills when the user presses the key they bound to that skill. This allows for more precise skill usage as keybindings in the game change randomly which causes chaos.
I first tried using mouse_event to move, click down, click up, return back to original location. This worked, but I ran into a problem that occurred if mouse movement by the user was happening while the code was being ran. The problem mainly would cause the mouse to move off the skill before clicking or even after the mouse down event.
So then I looked into SendMessage and PostMessage but it took a while before I could fully grasp everything about the functions mostly due to many examples posted online being different from one another as far as the declarations.
I now have matched the output that happens according to Spy++ when I actually click the mouse myself with various PostMessage and SendMessages, but am still having an odd problem:
I provide the coordinates to click on say Button 1. Spy++ tells me it is clicking it properly, but I do not actually get a click. However, if I manually move my mouse over that button, even on the very corners of it, and then press the key, it clicks it (although it also seems to work on one other button in the game.) Other than that, it will not click any other button besides the one that the coordinates are over.The game does not have any child windows so it doesn't seem like I can get the handle of the actual buttons themselves.Here is what I have as test coding to figure this all out (the sleep time in between mdown and mup is because the game doesn't register if clicked too fast):
Option Explicit On
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices 'MarshalAs, Marshal
'Imports System.Reflection 'assembly
[code]....
I was thinking that if there was a way to maybe pause control from being able to move the mouse that I could just revert back to the original mouse_event code as well, but I haven't found anything that can take away control like that (actually, I wouldn't even want that posted TBH as it could be used for malicious stuff).
EDIT:The code at the bottom is just stuff I was using to match what happens when I actually click according to Spy++.

I had a post about how to disable monitors, but someone suggested just making it not possible to leave the primary screen. This was obviously a good suggestion, but im not sure how i would accomplish this.
I need to prevent the user from entering the ctrl, alt, delete, escape, and windows key. I also need to prevent the mouse from leaving the primary screen.
My program is a security login system. It requires a username and password to close, and i want to make sure that it cannot close unless the user supplies the correct username and password.

I have a timer that I've established that I have set to run at a 20ms interval.Within that timer code, I have some code that is performing a visual display, moving a graphic incrementally.This all works great on a nice fast machine, when I can be sure that the "work" is actually being completed before it's "called" again by the timer.It does not behave well on a slower machine, when I suspect that the timer is being called again before the work is being done from the previous call(s).
I've tried establishing a global boolean variable called "Timer1Active". I set this variable when I enter the code to TRUE, and to FALSE as I exit the procedure. I also check, using an IF statement if it is true at the beginning of the procedure, skipping all of the procedure if it's not yet been set back to false.This approach seems to stop the visual portion from happening altogether. I think, anyway. That or it's now way faster and I can't see it at all (but I doubt it).

I set up a test harness by checking for and then deleting records added to the db in the previous testing session, and then I test my recording adding code by adding back the same records.Interestingly this code works fine when there is a break in the debugger, but fails with a "duplicate key" exception when I let it run with no breaks, which leads me to believe there is some kind of concurrency issue.The basic metacode is as follows:
DoTest()
dim j as datacontext
dim recs = from myrecs in j.mythings select myrecs where myrecs.key="key1" or
myrecs.key = "key2"
[code]....
I've confirmed that I'm properly deleted the previous added records, and this works fine as does adding the new records when I have a break in the code before I hit the add records step. but without the break, it throws duplicate key exceptions in the "addrecordestomytable" method suggesting that it hasn't grabbed the current version of the table when it creates the new data context in addrecordstomytable, even though the records should have already been deleted.I've tried refreshing the table, but this doesn't seem to work either.Note backing database is ms sql server 10?

I am using an activeX control to read data from an external source. This data is processed in 5 second increments. Each piece of data is passed through an event. When the event triggers I call a "decision" procedure from the event to process the data and make decisions on what to do, i.e. call other procedures, store the data, etc... This works fine when I have a small number of samples (around 10), however, when the number of samples increases to say 100, that is I am recieving 100 pieces of data every 5 seconds, the "decision" procedure does not fully run. Is it possible that the event trigger is causing the code to exit the "decision" procedure prematurely? I know that the "Decision" procedure starts since I have written data from the beginning of the procedure but not the end of it. how to handle the rapid event triggers?

What I have so far is a program that moves the mouse around my application. I used a bit a maths as well to make the movement smooth. Here's my code for anyone who is interested:
Code:
Public Sub MoveMouseCursor(ByVal DestinationX, ByVal DestinationY)
Dim DifferenceX As Integer = MousePosition.X - DestinationX
Dim DifferenceY As Integer = MousePosition.Y - DestinationY
[Code].....
Now with my problem. When the program is running, the last thing I want is for the user to be moving the mouse because the program would get disrupted. How can I enable and disable the use of the mouse for the users benefits really because if they even knock the mouse slightly it could cause them a few difficulties. Anyway, I am hardly restricting them from using their computer because there is only one mouse. If they want my program to run, then they will have to except the fact that they can't do something else in the mean time. Also, after the program has finished running, I will need to enable the mouse again.

I need to detect whenever user clicks the mouse, no matter what form is selected at the given time.
I know that detected keypresses globally can be done through a Keyboard hook so I assume that i am going to need some sort of Mouse Hook.

I want to make an application in vb.net which will allow user to use mouse in a different way. i.e Dwell Clicking. Suppose user moves mouse pointer at particular location and if the user doesn't move the mouse pointer from that location for 2 seconds then single click will be initiated. How should I start? All I know is I will need a form, 2 buttons i.e for selecting single click and double click, and a timer!

I'm trying to simulate a mouse click at a given set of coordinates on the screen. This is not to click on a form in my application, but rather to serve as a button press in another application I have no control over.(The jerks didn't put hotkeys in there so I'm trying to make my own...I've got the hotkey code down, but now I'd like to make it call a sub that forces a mouse click at X, Y coordinates..

is it possible to link a personal created class with a Mouse Event? I created a class and I want to make it possible to make it interactive with the mouse. So when the user goes over the GDI-created shape (which is declared and created in that class), he has to see some information about that shape, like the name etc.... And the user has to be able to drag and drop that shape.

want my application to trigger audio files when the user clicks a word/sentence in a label, and show a tooltip on mouse hover. I use VB. I tried using TTS (SAPI 3.5), but can not know which language the user's operating system will have. Also, I was advise to use pre-recorded sound wav or mp3. I created the audio files, but am not able to link/connect/call.
