Is there an OnKeyPress event in the Input control?

[Razi]

Is there an OnKeyPress event in the Input GUI control? For example, need to create GUI form with 1 Input and 2 labels. And if any keyboard button was pressed in Input1 (or if the text in Input1 changed), then change text in label1, with current text from Input1. If the text in Input1 is not = nil/null or empty  and 'Enter' keyboard button was pressed, then change text in the label2, with current text from Input1.

Saw this OnKeyPress topic , but need a simpler example.

GUIRegisterMsg($WM_COMMAND, "WM_COMMAND")

Func WM_COMMAND($hWinHandle, $iMsg, $wParam, $lParam)
    If _WinAPI_LoWord($wParam) = $idInput And _WinAPI_HiWord($wParam) = $EN_CHANGE Then
        ...
    EndIf
EndFunc

I recommend that you also take a look at GUISetAccelerators: https://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/GUISetAccelerators.htm

I thing this is a start 

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

Local $Form1 = GUICreate("Form1", 300, 150)
Local $Label1 = GUICtrlCreateLabel("Tip new txt and hit enter", 10, 10, 280, 21)
Local $Input1 = GUICtrlCreateInput("Tip new txt and hit enter", 10, 25, 280, 21)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)

While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit

        Case $Input1
            Local $NewTxt = GUICtrlRead($Input1)
            If StringLen($NewTxt) > 0 Then
                GUICtrlSetData($Label1, $NewTxt)
                ConsoleWrite("New txt = " & $NewTxt & @CRLF)
            Else
                ConsoleWrite("! New txt must be somthing" & @CRLF)
            EndIf

    EndSwitch
WEnd
