Guest CYTEXONE Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 How can I set the right alt button as a hotkey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therks Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 (edited) You can't.The following hotkeys cannot be set:Ctrl+Alt+Delete - It is reserved by Windows F12 - It is also reserved by Windows, according to its API. NumPad's Enter Key - Instead, use {Enter} which captures both Enter keys on the keyboard. Win+B,D,E,F,L,M,R,U; and Win+Shift+M - These are built-in Windows shortcuts. Note: Win+B and Win+L might only be reserved on Windows XP and above. Alt, Ctrl, Shift, Win - These are the modifier keys themselves! Other - Any global hotkeys a user has defined using third-party software, any combos of two or more "base keys" such as '{F1}{F2}', and any keys of the form '{LALT}' or '{ALTDOWN}'.

Marek(-|-) Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 alt key is symbolized with the !. I've set hotkeys with alt + a letter before. For example u could make it Hotkeyset("!a", Shutdown). Just search the helpfile for Send, or Hotkeyset. If I remember right you should find a list of values for the keys under the Send topic. Just try it out. (-|_) -|- ( _|-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest smu_tek Posted April 14, 2005 Share Posted April 14, 2005 I've made HotKeyset("!a", "ShowMsg") and it works only when I hit "Left ALT" and the "a" letter. It doesn't work with "Right ALT". I work with WinXP Sp1. Could someone check it. I want to catch some Polish fonts that are assigned with "Right ALT" as a modyfier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
