Simulate Send key 222 - below Esc

[ribo75016]

Hi,

I would like to use send function to simulate a keypress on ² key, ie key below Escape but I dont know how to do it.

222 is the reply from _IsPressed function but I cant simulate this ?

Regards

Welcome, so what have you tried that isn't working?

Also which key do you means as the keyboards are different in each country and have no idea what you mean with :

Is it the key used to bring up (down) the game console so you can type game cheatcodes ?

My keyboard is azerty, so it's the key left to '1234..', below Escape and above Tab

So 'n' or '2' on this picture, and it's used to swap bars in my app

I used this code to catch keycode, and result is 222 :

Quote

#include <misc.au3>
While 1
    sleep(10)
    For $i = 0 to 255
        if (_IsPressed(Hex($i))) Then
            MsgBox(0, "", "You pressed the: " & Chr($i) & " Key!" & @CRLF & "Which would be polled with: _Ispressed(" & $i & ")")
        EndIf
    Next
WEnd

I tried a send(asc('222')) without success

What about Send("²")

[Nine]

#include <WinAPISys.au3>
_WinAPI_Keybd_Event(222, 0)
_WinAPI_Keybd_Event(222, $KEYEVENTF_KEYUP)

It is not always the same character, depends on the KB. Mine is '#'...
