The GetAsyncKeyState Api does'nt recognizes the mouse wheel rotation, I see.Is there way to control the mouse wheel rotation (always, not only when the pointer is over a form of mine) with a simple API, without to Hook the mouse?
View 2 Replieshow to capture the mouse wheel if the mouse is directly over my control - regardless of what form / control has focus?? - however if another window or control is over the control at the time it won't scroll.
View 3 RepliesIf I have a winform, may I know how can I control the zoom level of the font in theapplication (as well as the application window itself obviously) by using Ctrl + Mouse Scroll Wheel? I see there is a Delta in the Scroll Wheel event, but not sure how that works.Is there any code sample that I can look into?

This was the code and this is the thread HERE Ok its working and everything but when i want to perform something when click is noticed it says i cant cross-threads
I'm using code from here - [URL]. And I'm getting the old
A call to PInvoke function 'EliteSwitch!EliteSwitch.MouseHook::CallNextHookEx' has unbalanced the stack. This is likely because the managed PInvoke signature does not match the unmanaged target signature. Check that the calling convention and parameters of the PInvoke signature match the target unmanaged signature.

I've tried changing variable types but I can't get it.
I want to make an auto log off feature, I want to detect if there is any user input, and if there isn't the user will be automatically logged off. So I want to know how to detect mouse wheel events when the form doesn't have focus.
View 1 RepliesI have a tab control with two tab pages. One page has the auto scroll enabled since there is to much content in the page. The middle mouse wheel doesn't scroll the scroll bar; I have to actually click and hold the scroll bar and drag it down to scroll. Is there a property to allow this?

View 3 RepliesTo detect rotation of the mouse wheel in .NET/WinForms, I can override OnMouseWheel. Clicking can be detected by overriding OnMouseDown (it's just the Middle button). But how do I detect tilting of the wheel (tilt to the left/right for horizontal scrolling)? Neither OnMouseWheel, not OnMouseDown is being called when I tilt the mouse wheel.

View 3 RepliesThe use of shift + scroll wheel is fairly common for horizontal scrolling.
Both of those are fairly easy to capture. I can use the MouseWheel event with a flag set by the KeyDown, KeyUp events to keep track of when the shift key is pressed.
However, how do I actually trigger the horizontal scrolling? I am aware of WM_MOUSEHWHEEL, can that be used to trigger the event?
Update: For a System.Windows.Form there is a HorizontalScroll property that is of type HScrollProperties. You can manipulate the Value attribute on that object to change the horizontal scrollbar's position. However, so far I haven't spotted any other controls on which that object is available.
Does anyone know of a way to disable the mouse scroll wheel when a control such as a ombobox or listbox has focus? For my purposes, combobox is all I need the answer for.I have a combobox set to trigger a SQL query on SelectedIndexChanged, and accidentally scrolling the wheel while the combobox has focus causes about six SQL queries to fire off simultaneously.

View 12 RepliesI have a multi-line text box with hundreds of lines. I would like to be able to scroll up or down in the list using the mousewheel (much like using the pgup/pgdown keys). I think I need to use the .mousewheel event, but I'm not sure how to implement this. Is that supported out of the box, or do I need to hook the mouse?
View 2 RepliesI have an unbound datagridview, where column #3 is a DataGridViewComboBoxColumn which is filled with some values for the user to choose.
Problem: mouse wheel.Users usually use the mouse wheel to scroll the datagridview. That is fine.However, if the focus is on a ComboboxCell, the wheel will not do the intended function (scrolling the grid), but will scroll the combo and change the cell value.
I am having lots of accidental changes because of that.
- Disable the wheel, if focus is ON DataGridViewComboBoxColumn ?

View 5 RepliesI was getting some slightly unusual behavior when using the mouse wheel for some zooming/scaling work (only vaguely related to the earlier thread, for those who remember it). Frankly, it is likely that I have a bug in some code, but that wasn't quite enough to explain what I was seeing. Therefore, I used a error logging feature in my app to note the delta being passed in each Mouse Wheel event. I then ran the app and gave the wheel one good spin, which was about the maximum that I would normally ever spin the wheel in one steady, continuous motion. I wasn't going slow, I wasn't going fast, and I rotated it about as much as my finger comfortably could in a single roll.[code]I then rolled it back the other way using the same motion, and got 8 events, mostly under 200, but one of them was -331 and the other was -7940.
After a handful of tests, it appears that the wheel event is raised often, which is no surprise, but that the values fluctuate all over the place. With a continuous rotation, or as nearly continuous as I can make it, I can see a series of events with one of them easily being ten times the rest.The problem this presents is that the scaling I am using is not smooth (nor is it standard mathematical scaling, but that's a different story). Each zoom level doubles the size of the objects relative to the previous level, though the distance between them stays the same. I would like to do this by dividing the delta by some factor, and if that is above a threshold, increase the zoom level. That won't work smoothly, in this case. If I make the factor something small enough that I pick up a small rotation, then any larger rotation is likely to include a delta that takes the screen through all zoom levels in a single step. Alternatively, if I make the factor large, then all smaller rotations are simply ignored.One option would be to filter out rotation values below 200 and above 800, or so. I am looking for other alternatives.
I want to hook low level Mouse hook in vb, and after that I want to save the X-axis, Y-axis and clicks(Right/Left) into database for later use or automation..But I don't understand that how should I save the X-axis, Y-axis and clicks into a MS SQL databse and later retrieve them?
View 2 RepliesThe code given below works fine. The only problem is mouse wheel/keyup cannot be used after the TOP image is displayed, it fills the keyboard buffer. Then I have to wait awhile to use wheel/keydown. Also the images after wheel/keydown goes beyond last image. It should stop at the last image like it stops at the first image.

My application uses a trackbar to sort images.It works best if the mouse wheel scroll lines value is one.I can advise my users to set the value themselves in the control panel having determined it is three, but I cant set a users scroll value to one for them.I would like to have some visual basic code in the form load that sets the scroll line value to one.
View 5 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 4 RepliesI have a form that is displayed, not by ShowDialog, but by setting its visible property to true. This is so it behaves like a dropdown.The form installs a mouse hook, using SetWindowsHookEx(WH_MOUSE, ...).
I detect if the mouse is clicked outside of the dropdown and if so, return 1 in my HookProc method and close the dropdown.The strange thing is, if I click outside of my drop down on to a textbox, the textbox still receives the mouse click, after my dropdown closes, even though it's been handled by my HookProc method.It gets stranger... If I click on a label or button, they do not receive the mouse click, as expected, after the drop down closes!

Using VB 2010, is it possible to capture all mouse clicks and determine what was clicked?We're trying to develop a small utility that will pop up context based menus to fill in application forms and common strings for terminal sessions.Basically, whenever I middle click I want my app to determine if the window was an occurance of PuTTY. If so, check the titlebar for certain strings and send keystrokes to that window based on the titlebar text.If VB 2010 can't do this, what should I be looking for? Will VB6 apps do the job? Will they work on a Windows 7 PC?
View 2 RepliesHow do I setup the mouse hook and keyboard hook?
View 1 RepliesI have set the controls mouse enter and mouse leave events. My problem is that the mouse leave event fires if I mouse over any of the child controls (like the name box for example).What I need is for the mouse leave event to fire when my mouse leaves the entire control, rather than firing when I mouse over any of the child controls. Here are the events as I have them so far:
Private Sub DeliveryControl_MouseEnter(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.MouseEnter
Me.removeImage.Visible = True
End Sub

I have a form, that acts like a drop-down, that I display non-modal. I attach a mouse hook to the form to determine when the mouse is clicked out of it, so that I know to close it - by setting Visible = False.
Because I want the HookProc to handle the last click, I can't dispose the Hook or my Dropdown until I'm sure that my event handler has returned to the HookProc.[code]...
I need to write an application that can validate wether or not a proper process was followed based on information that was entered into another .NET appliction. Basically, I need to be able to intercept a mouse click on a button in another application so that instead of submitting the data it triggers my validation code then cancel the action if need be.
We do not have the code to the other application. I have everything I need perform the validation. The only thing I don't know how to do is intercept the mouse click on the button control of the other application. Can some one show me how this is done?
