Cue Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 This may be a stupid question but is it possible to create a function like _Ispressed but using scancodes. the reason I ask is because there are 4 programmable keys on a laptop and I want to make them do more than just what the default program allows. Only problem is all keys are returning a 'FF' virtual keycode so I can't distinguish which one has been pressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cue Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 in ezzetabi's words from the following postAFAIK the keycode is a code related to the 'meaning' of the key while the 'scancode' is related about the hardware position of the key.E.G.The key ~ in english keyboard returns (of course) a tilde, but in an italian keyboard will return a backslash! Because keyboards are differents. So the keycode will be different, but the scancode does not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glyph Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Scancode = ASCII Character Codes i presume? tolle indicium Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cue Posted January 25, 2007 Author Share Posted January 25, 2007 Scancode = ASCII Character Codes i presume?Um... No i dont think so, I think its a hardware code for the key rather than a code for the character the key is mapped to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
