sendkeys

My PC hangs when I send key in Form_Shown() and placing Breakpoint at Form_KeyDown() private void Form1_KeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e) { //breakpoint here if (e.KeyCode == Keys.A) { MessageBox.Show("caught"); } } private void Form1_Shown(object sender, EventArgs e) { SendKeys.Send("A"); } I repro, Win7 and VS2008. That looks like a fairly nasty deadlock, you can get out of it by pressing Ctrl+Esc on the keyboard. By default, SendKeys uses a windows hook to inject the keys. Windows hooks can have fairly unpleasant side effects but I wouldn't hesitate to call this a Windows bug. To fix

I wanna do a macro program for a game. But there is a problem with sending keys to only game application (game window). I am using keybd_event API for sending keys to game window. But I only want to send keys to the game window, not to explorer or any opened window while my macro program is running. When I changed windows its still sending keys. I tried to use Interaction.App with Visual Basic.dll reference. But Interaction.App only Focus the game window. I couldn't find anything about my problem. Can anyone help me? Thanx i fixed my problem. in this field ; PostMessage(hWnd, WM_KEYDOWN, key,

I'm using Java, Selenium, and Chrome for test automation. Our developers recently upgraded our UI from AngularJS to Angular2 (not sure if that matters). But since then, sendKeys is inputting incomplete characters in to the text field. Here's an example: public void enterCustomerDetails() { txtFirstName.sendKeys("Joh201605130947AM"); txtSurname.sendKeys("Doe201605130947AM"); txtEmail.sendKeys("johndoe@gmail.com"); } I also tried using executeScript. It didn't work. It can enter complete characters but the form thinks the field is null. public void forceSendKeys(WebElement element, String text)

How can I simulate a keypress in a game window (using any programming language in Windows)? AutoHotKeys Scripts and .NET SendKeys functions do not work... Using AutoIt!3 (which is quite similar to AutoHotKeys), you'd use Send() ( http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/docs/functions/Send.htm ), but make sure to have the game window active ( WinActivate() ) before you do. I've used this to interact with Second Life (which uses OpenGL) succesfully. You may require a Sleep() period between simulated key presses, since not all games implement good keyboard buffers. If this doesn't work, the game is

How do I send a period using sendkeys? I have tried: System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("{.}"); System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait("."); but neither of these work. I am trying to send the keyboard shortcut to a Google search window to enable voice search in Chrome. The shortcut is CTRL+SHIFT+PERIOD, I know how to do the ctrl+shift, just not the period. Anyone have any ideas? Any help is appreciated, thank you. Try this: System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait(Keys.OEMPeriod); Have you considered the Keys enum ? It has a "decimal" System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys.SendWait(Keys.Decimal) 来源：
