auth100488 Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 Hi guys, i'm trying to change data via GUICtrlSetData when two keys are pressed.I've been lurking the forums but i haven't found a way to do it that works.So far i've tried using :$hMain = GUICreate("",810,75,2475,980, $WS_POPUP, 0x00080028) _WinAPI_SetLayeredWindowAttributes($hMain, 0, 100) Global $labelex = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 5, 5, 150, 25) Global $labelexvalue = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 25, 5, 150, 25) Global $labelc = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 5, 650, 150, 25) Global $labelcvalue = GUICtrlCreateLabel("", 25, 650, 150, 25) Local $try1 Local $try2 Local $aAccelKeys[2][2] = [["^c", $try1], ["^n", $try2]] GUISetAccelerators($aAccelKeys) GUISetState(@SW_SHOW) While 1 Switch GUIGetMsg() Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE Exit Case $try1 MsgBox($MB_SYSTEMMODAL, "", "whatever") EndSwitch WEndBut when i hit CTRL + c it does not work. (Copy)I have also tried with the "Case _Ispressed("11", $hDLL) And _Ispressed("43", $hDLL) It works even though i haven't pressed any key. Ultimately all i want to do is to display some informations through the GUICtrlSetData based on whats in the clipboard.I already go the clipboard part figured out in two separate function ... but i still can't figure out how to do this. Thanks a lot for your time/help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrewManNH Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 EDIT1: Nvm its working but i forgot to let you know of something important, the GUI will not be in focus.For your method to work i need to make sure its in focus, however, it act as an ... "info band" just something receiving informations to display.The whole point of Accelerator keys is that they're only active with the GUI in focus, otherwise a hot key would suffice. You can make it so that your hotkeys are only active wihen the GUI is in focus by checking WinActive, but that defeats the purpose as well. If you want to have it only work in your script, you'll have to use some unused hotkey combinations, and CTRL+C and CTRL+N are already taken for a lot of Windows programs. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise.

auth100488 Posted August 28, 2015 Author Share Posted August 28, 2015 First of all thanks a lot for your help (both of you).Since CTRL + C is already reserved by the system and that i need not to have the actual gui in focus, i went the HotkeySet way.Using an unbound key "F2" the user will be required to copy the text then press F2.. then the program will fetch the website data.This is now solved! thanks again!
