I'm working on an application of which counts how many keystrokes/clicks. I'm just wondering how I would go about logging such actions. The application will be running in the background within the taskbar and when you click on anything on your computer/type anything or press any key I want it to pick up the event and log and add up, so if i click 10 times it will add 10 onto the total clicks and vicer versa on typing.
View 3 RepliesI 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?
My computer is set for lets say a 15 minute begore the screensaver and passwork have to be re-entered.Is there a way using VB to simulate a keypress or mouse movement if no key was pressed or mouse moved within the 15 minutes?

How do i make the mouse click by typing like Mouse.click.do if you get what i mean.
BEcause i need it to go to a position onscreen and click.
Also how would i do rightclick?
I 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.

View 9 RepliesI have a picturebox on the form, when it is clicked, I want the picturebox to fit the size of the form, which can be done by
pic.SizeToFit = true So, the picturebox will automatically change the size.But after that, I want to set pic.SizeToFit = false , I need this because the picturebox is a user control which has a image Pannign feature, and it works only when the picturebox.SizeToFit = false
I can not set it = false in the mouse click event, because I need set it = true, so the pic will change size.basically, what I need is: after mouse click event finished, change SizeToFit = false.One way to do it is in mouse click event, start a timer, after several seconds, set SizeToFit = false. Or, use a thread. It will work. But, is there a more elegant way to do this?

Im new to the forum and planning to stay here to learn more on programming. I would like to ask a question about Getting the Mouse coordinate on the Screen outside the form then Perform a left click or mouse event on the given coordinate what i want to happen is to get the coordinate first then perform click. i already have the code for performing the click but i dont know how to get a coordinate i will not be putting the code because i want to learn and not copy any already made code.
View 8 RepliesIf you set a listbox selectedindex in code the SelectedIndexChanged event is only raised if the item isn't already selected, So why is the event rasied when you click a selected item with the mouse?
Here's what I came up with to get around the problem (which seems unnecessary and silly), So if there is a built-in or better way I'd sure like to know.

How do I add a proxy set up where I can use proxies switching every time an event is called?
View 3 RepliesFor my program, I have a webbrowser loaded with a website which contains flash elements.

This is what I'm looking for however, paired with the ability to simulate the click while not being on that form. I believe this would require the coordinates to be relative to the form itself also. I'm not sure if this is all possible in Visual Basic, however I've seen it utilized in Actionscript and Java.
I 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.

I 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. Why Mouse Click is not triggered? Similiarly I Did the same for Mouse Enter and Mouse Move for a particular button, in this case both the events are triggered.

I 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 don't know where to start so i will explain my project. I want (someday) to make a macro scripting program kinda like SCAR. The difference will be that it will simulate all the function/procedures from scar. What i mean by simulate is that you can "Mouse Click" without actually moving or affecting the "real" mouse. This will allow you to macro and do what ever you do on the computer at the same time.
