Im creating a Virtual Keyboard for a touchscreen application and I was wondering if there is a way to know whenever a control gets focus, what type of control it is, basically either another thread or a watch function or something that raises an event when a control gets focus.GLOBALLY, not just one control or one form, but any control on any form in the whole program..Basically i want a keyboard icon to appear whenever the control is of Textbox type.
I can launch my external program which is a Virtual Keyboard, but once it launchs then I have to click the textbox on my form or no text appears when I use the Virtual Keyboard. How can I make my form be the focus after the Virtual Keyboard launches?
I have created a virtual keyboard like the "Windows onscreen keyboard". So, I have used the method sendkeys.But if I click on the button, it doesn't write nothing.
I think I have a problem with the FOCUS.As you can see, the "Windows onscreen keyboard" is always on top.This doesn't happen to my form. How can I do?
I'm trying to create a custom keyboard for my accounting firm. I have all the buttons and button events sorted out.How can I make it so that when buttons a pressed, the text is input into where the cursor is? Currently i put the cursor for instance in an excel cell, then click the key on the virtual keyboard and nothing is inputted into the cell, i assume because it selects the keyboard window when i click the button. For some keys I'm also simply using:SendKeys.Send("q") for example.
I am having troubles in connecting my virtual/simulated keyboard and real keyboard. i.e., when I press a button say "B" the button in my real keyboard, my virtual to response with that same "B" press.
I have seen similar questions which attempt to solve this issue, but none seem to work for me so far.Basically, for my first VB project, I am creating a virtual keyboard where a sound is played from the resources on KeyDown. So far, the program seems to work except for the fact that each key needs to be clicked by the mouse before the sound is played by pressing each key (hence put the object in focus), where I need the key to play the sound without clicking the keyboard key (put the object in focus on KeyDown).Below is an example of my code:
i want my program to understand what i push the key "+" for example and do something. i can write this "something" but i dont remember how to make it see when i push the keyboard keys (NOTICE: i want the program to see the keyboard keys even if the program is minimized and another program is maximized)
I want to hook keyboard with vb , so that whenever my application written in vb runs it will capture all the keys pressed from the keyboard and show all the keys being pressed in a textbox on window's form
So recently my Netbook keyboard stopped working, I got this new one. That would not be a problem if it was not for the missing [FN] key. My computer has several shortcuts, like FN + F6 = Turns screen off.
I cant seem to figure out how to bind these shortcuts to buttons in Visual Basic so I can just hit the button and turn the screen off that way, I've only used VB to make small simple fun stuff.
Respect, I should write a program for my keyboard player, which would have the option of changing sounds. So, the device is plugged into the USB, which lets you plug in 4 MIDI device or its keyboard. In order to select a song, a program should then all keyboards set the preset sounds. Is it possible to make? Do you perhaps know what we all need?
I'm afraid I don't have any code to show, as I don't know where to begin with this. I'd like to have it so that if the user presses "Ctrl+O" it will run the OpenDialogue from the Menu. If someone really wants me to (don't see how it'd help, but whatever it takes ) I can post the fully functional open function.
I am making this little tool for this online game i play (league of legends some of you might know it) Basically I made a small program which consists of 4 buttons and when you click button it starts timer and beeps once it reaches 0. Thats fine. Problem is I have to go out of game to click the button to start the countdown.My question is. While the program is running in background is there a way to press the button by assigning specific key on keyboard ? for example if I press F5 it will start the Bluebtn when i press F6 it will start Redbtn while I am in game.
well the title kind of explains it, what i would like to do is code a program or script that will make it so that when i plug a usb keyboard in that instead windows making it a clone of my laptop keyboard that it makes it a totally seperate device with 108 programmable keys that i can turn into scripts...now dont know if this is possible and if it is i am totally drawing a blank of where to start...once i get going i think i could handle it but its the starting point thats killing me.
I want to make a simple program that will click certain keys on my keyboard at a certain interval. I have VB10. Could someone provide me with some code?
Where should I go to leanr to program stuff like getting keystrokes, locking keyvoards, changing desktop backgrounds, opening CD trays, changing IE homepage, etc.... Basically everything windows... I'm using VB.NET right now. Is there an api or something to learn for this kind of stuff?

I have created a WFA that has 5 projects in it. One of the projects runs against 600 + servers and queries each server for local administrator accounts and then dumps that into an excel file. It will also check to see if the account that is in a local administrator group is disabled in AD. The problem that I have is that when I run the particular project I will run out of virtual memory. I have 4 gig on my computer. Is there a way to control this?[code]...

I am trying to use fluent nhibernate in a MVC project. It seems the entities should have properties that are virtual and the set should be private for IDs. I use vb language. So tried using overrideable. It gives an error...
Public Overridable Property DesignId() As Integer Get End Get Private Set(ByVal value As Integer) End Set End Property
It says property cannot be overrideable because it has a private accessor.
Is it possible to make a virtual interface represents the value of an input? For example, if we have a program shows the level of a liquid in a tank and we want to represent the level virtually: as the calculated value of the level increases, the level (and color) filled in the tank shown, increases as well. Example: If the value is 100, the tank ( a rectangular ) will be shown full and green. If it is 0, will be shown empty and red.
