Key code

[EliTe_ThuT]

Hi,

I want to set a hotkey in my script, but I would like to use the "Next Track" key on my keyboard. Is there any way I can retrieve the code for this key?

Thanks

maybe.. i´m not sure... i think i have some solution for that.. in a minute i post it here...

your key hex code is "0xB0"

try it... and look the source web

SOURCE MSDN LINK

If not that tell me and i make you an API call.. i think the WINAPI GetKeyboardState from user32.dll it might help you to indentify the key value...

The winapiex already have the functions on it...

EDIT if the value i give you is NOT what you need.. look at the example of the function _WinAPI_IsPressed() inside the winapiex helpfile

it tell you the value of the key pressed..!

#Include <WinAPIEx.au3>

Opt('GUICloseOnESC', 0)
Opt('MustDeclareVars', 1)

Global $Label, $Key, $Prev = Default

GUICreate('MyGUI', 200, 200)
$Label = GUICtrlCreateLabel('', 10, 59, 180, 82, 0x01)
GUICtrlSetFont(-1, 48, 400, 0, 'Tahoma')
GUISetState()

While 1
    Sleep(10)
    If GUIGetMsg() = -3 Then
        ExitLoop
    EndIf
    $Key = 0
    $Key = _WinAPI_IsPressed(0x08, 0xFF)
    If $Key <> $Prev Then
        GUICtrlSetData($Label, '0x' & Hex($Key, 2))
        $Prev = $Key
    EndIf
WEnd
