Send global keystroke / fake a global hotkey from a Winforms application

问题

For my current winforms win7 project I need to simulate some global hotkey presses.

I tried sending the keystrokes with SendMessage directly to the program interceptin the hotkeys, but that doesnt work. The program doesnt seem to handle incoming hotkeys when it's foccused / send directly to them.

How would I send simulated keypresses so that they get recognized as Global Hotkeys?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: I dont want to Set hotkeys for my app, I want to trigger them in another application From my app. So my app will send Keystrokes somewhere, to be picked up by the other app. I dont know where to send them, sending them directly doesnt work

回答1:

You can use sendKeys:

SendKeys.Send("+^S");

This is for Ctrl+Shift+S
