Is it possible to monitor keystroke while GUI is not in focus ?

[kcvinu]

Hi there,

I would like to know that there is any possible way to monitor keystrokes while autoit GUI is not in focus. I mean minimized state.

if your looking for your func to do something on specific key press

look @ _IsPressed(), it check one specific key state and its gui independent.

 

#include <Misc.au3>
While 1
    If _IsPressed('01') Then
        SplashTextOn('','Left Mouse Down',200,40)
        Do
            Sleep(10)
        Until Not _IsPressed('01')
        SplashOff()
    EndIf
Wend

Or look @ HotKeySet Edited February 13, 2015 by bogQ

I am not suggesting that you are doing anything wrong, but please make sure you read the Keyloggers announcement before you post again.

Hi Melba23, 

I am trying to make an input method editor for my native language. If i press "A" on my keyboard, then the appropriate letter of my native language should appear on screen. And i don't like to use my knowledge for illegal purposes.

Setting the Focus, is also a separate option available to you, other than being active or maximized or on top, etc.

Focus can also be set to individual controls.

Hi, 

There is two input options for our native language. 

1. Phonetic method (It's very easy)

2. Inscript method. (Quite difficult)

Unfortunately, this program supports only inscript method. So i need to change the input method to phonetic through AutoIt script. If that is impossible, then i can develop a new GUI and get the input from user and then paste it to this app.
