Keystroke

[Teqskater]

Hello people,

Im currently working in a bar and im a DJ there. I want to create an application that responds to keypresses even when the program itself isnt in focus. So that when i am in the music computer and search for a song it will be displayed in my application. To show people wich music is playing at the moment.

Any ideas on how to achieve this. Don't worry im an advanced user in AMS.

Try this example by Scriptonite:

It use the WinApi plugin to capture mouse-clicks outside of the application area, and returns the variable to ams.

That may come in handy too but what i realy meant was keyboard buttons and not mouse buttons. Thanks anyway

Are you using two monitors, one for you and one for them to see?

Use: System.IsKeyDown

Use: System.IsKeyDown

Huh! After all this time, I never even knew that function was there.
Now, if only I can get myself to remember that I now know it's there.

@Scriptonite:
Yes i use 2 monitors.
One is where the DJ software runs on and the other one is just for ads and that stuff...
