I need to know a way to detect if the mouse has been clicked anywhere on the screen. So as long the program I am making is open when the user clicks my program needs to do something. Please let me know as soon as possible if this is possible and how you do it.
View 5 RepliesI'm trying to set up a timer that counts up to ten and starts/resets when the left mouse button is clicked (anywhere on the screen even when the application is in the background). I'm struggling to find a code that suggests it is possible and now I am starting to wonder even if it is possible in VB?

View 1 RepliesI need to create a program that can run code each time the user clicks, I can't use windows forums since its on another program. If the code can detect global mouse clicks(system wide) or only on one program it's fine.
I've done some digging and it looks like windows API can solve my problem but i really suck at using windows API and it looks like SetWindowsHookEx() can solve my problem but i don't know how to use it correctly. This is the code from Pinvoke that I modified to hopefully work for a mouse click. i'm having trouble getting this to work.
Imports System.Runtime.InteropServices
Imports System.Windows.Forms
Module Module1
Sub Main()

View 35 RepliesI have defined a class which inherits PictureBox-component.In this class I have a mouseClick and mouseDoubleClick events overridden.On mouseClick the image is selected. Now if user click it again, it is delesected.The mouseDoubleClick event starts the video which this picture is pointing to.Now the problem is that when user doubleclicks the pictureBox it actually calls the mouseClick-event twice (select-deselect) and does not call the mouseDoubleClick-event. How can I define it so that if mouseclicks are done as doubleclicks then doubleClick-event is called, not the click event twice?
View 2 RepliesI have two custom action listers. One that handles Mouse.Click and one that handles Mouse.MouseDown. My question to you is, can I delay the mouse down event so that it does not intefere with the code of the Mouse.Click event? I have tried adding a timer and waiting x amount then setting a bool value to true, but the code executes to fast and it skips the other code.

I need to know the status of the mouse whether it is moving or being idle. How can I do that?
I have tried with form's mouse move event but, it doesn't work if the mouse is on any control.
I try to detect when the mouse is over a curve in zedgraph, I am capable of doing it if the mouse is over a point of the curve, but the problem is when the curve has no points in that region,let me show you an example:
Curve is defined by 2 points: [X=0;Y=10] -- [X=1000;Y=10]
If mouse is at point [X=500;Y=10] it is over the curve, but not over any point so i cannot detect it.Is there any event which gets fired when mouse is over line but not necessarily over a point?
how do I make a textbox that counts every single mouse click made while the application is open?

I am creating an application that creates scripts to move a mouse and to click where a user wishes to via pre-programmed code and to also press keys where required. I have the code to move a mouse and to manually click anywhere. What I am after is to detect when a mouse button is pressed and dragged and when keys are pressed.
I see that there is the following
MouseButtons.ToString
To detect when a mouse button is pressed, and have it looping in a timer. Is there a better way to do this? I would rather not use a timer. And is there a similar routine to detect which keys are pressed?
So i'm new to VB and am making a program that is a count down timer and when it reaches '0' it clicks the left mouse button where ever the mouse is on the screen (in the form or notThe code so far:

How to perform a mouse click using VB 2008?
View 3 RepliesI have a simple program. It has a "Start" and an "Exit" button. When the "START" button is hit, I change the text on the exit button to read "STOP PROCESSING". Then I go into my processing loop. When the "STOP PROCESSING" button is clicked the first time, the program simply ignores it. When I click it the SECOND time, it gets control. I know this because I put a breakpoint in at the start of the subroutine.What could I possibly be doing to quash the firing the first time?

View 8 RepliesI am new to VB.NET, Now i'm working with Events in VB.NET, I have two event methods, Mouse Click and Mouse Down for a single button in a form, I have displyed a message in each of these methods but only mouse down event is triggered.

View 9 RepliesApologies as this has probably been answered a million different times a million different ways already. I'm trying to control the mouse. I wish to move the mouse to a given pixel position (x, y) and cause a click. I don't want this to be limited within a form, as I want to control another application. I'm using VB 2005.

View 1 Replieshow do you send a mouse click to a window that seem to not accept them? I have tried sendmessage/postmessage, mouse_event and sendinput. None of them seem to work. Whenever the target window is in the foreground, i cant set the cursor position or do mouse_event click at all. But once it went to the back, everything works... cursor.position moves the mouse, sendinput and mouse_event can click on a different window, just not the one i want.
