Block almost all user inputs


Recommended Posts

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to figure out how to disable all the keys of the PC letting only the spacebar working.

I would like my baby (he is 18 months old) to run his program by pressing the space key without doing anything else.

It would be something like:

CODE
While 1

Blockinput(1)

While 1

If _IsPressed("20") Then

ExitLoop

EndIf

WEnd

; Here is the program for my baby

Wend

The problem is that Blockinput doesn't let the _IsPressed function to work.

Does anybody have an idea?

Thanks

Camilo

I'll not attempt to edit my code above due to some forum bugs atm - but here is a version with a Func that uses the spacebar:

For $i = 33 To 127
    HotKeySet(Chr($i), "_dummy")
Next

HotKeySet(Chr(32), "_DoStuff") ;space

While 1
    Sleep(999)
WEnd

Func _dummy()
EndFunc

Func _DoStuff()
 ; Here is the program for my baby
EndFunc
or you could use If @HotKeyPressed and exitloop

being you are working with a "real" youngster...

it may be more to your benefit to physicall cover the keyboard with a firm plastic

( like what sometimes covers a new keyboard )

just cut-out the space bar

That way any spills, sticky fingers, etc... won't bother your keyboard

just a thought

good luck

You are welcome - but it is just an example. There are more keys that will need to be assigned to that dummy UDF in order for this to work for you. Check the list of ASCII characters in the help file. Edit: along with the "send key list"

If you are making this comment about the code that the OP posted - then use ctrl-alt-del and then cancel that screen - that should reset the effects of the blockinput function.

If you are talking about the code that I posted to this thread - it should not affect the mouse.

Edit - now I see that the blockinput is in a While/Wend loop - yep, restart will do it.
