riki107 Posted August 5, 2013 Share Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) Hi guys, I'd like to know if my problem can be fixed. On my keyboard, there are 7 special keys (http://img40.imageshack.us/img40/5630/8r8b.jpg there's a picture). I knew that each key send a HEX code to the pc, and then the PC "translate" it in a visual character. But this keys doesn't have a HEX key. I've also wrote a piece of code, to detect if any key is pressed... It works with the whole keyboard but with this keys.So, my question is: how can I detect when this keys are pressed?Thanks P.S. There's the code I've used to map my keyboard<snip> Edited August 5, 2013 by Melba23 Code removed - see below Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Melba23 Posted August 5, 2013 Moderators Share Posted August 5, 2013 riki107,Welcome to the AutoIt forum. Those keys are usually hardwired to the motherboard and are specific to each model. So they cannot be detected by AutoIt - the same is true of the "Fn" key that is found on most laptops. And please read this announcement - then you will understand why I have removed the code you posted above and why you should not post anything like it again.

riki107 Posted August 5, 2013 Author Share Posted August 5, 2013 Hi Melba23, thanks for your speed in answering Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't think that it could be seen as Keylogger, sorry. I had the need to solve this problem because I've created a little tool that allows me to lock my PC without locking it from the users' login interface. These keys give me a lot of problem, because they can potentially avoid my script. So, there's no solution. Do you know any way to fix it, even without using Autoit?
