The KeyPress event is not raised by noncharacter keys; however, the noncharacter keys do raise the KeyDown and KeyUp events.

in KeyDown or KeyUp events you can detect arrows by e.KeyCode.

Simple. With ASCII Code.

lets take an example of pressing the keys in just form1:

if(e.KeyChar==37)<br />
                txtStatus.Text = "You've pressed the left arrow key.";<br />
            if(e.KeyChar==38)<br />
                txtStatus.Text = "You've pressed the up arrow key.";<br />
            if(e.KeyChar==39)<br />
                txtStatus.Text = "You've pressed the right arrow key.";

This is just a small example to get you started and so that u get to know the use of ASCII char tables.
Edit: Well it would be, if it would work... kinda forgot how i used this stuff.

Heres a good link on explanating the keypress control:

Hi Pedram Behroozi and max00slo,

I have tried it before, for other char is OK, but i just can't detect the arrows key.It never fire the keydown event. What i am do in my application is, i create the keydown event handler in one of my custom UI control, and it will pass the event args to one of my class via a abstract class.

any ideas are welcome.
thanks in advance

Didn't this work?

if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Right)
{

You will need to override ProcessCmdKey method to catch the arrow key press.

You just need to override the method in your class. This VB.Net[^] code should get you going with it.

you must derive a new class that is based on the class of the control that you want, and you override the ProcessCmdKey().

Syntax:

C#:
 protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
{
    //handle your keys here
}

PictureBox and ThumbNail code causing Application to NOT close.

swjam4-Nov-08 19:02

I've got the following code that attaches a thumbnail image coming from an ImageList to a PictureBox. However, it is causing my application to not close once the code block gets executed. I suspect this has got to do with the resource(the photo file) not being released properly, I may be wrong though. Any experts advice would be greatly appreciated. All the best!

<br />
      Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort myCallback =<br />
                                       new Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort(ThumbnailCallback);<br />
      Image myThumbnail = this.imageList1.Images[0].GetThumbnailImage(this.pictureBox1.Size.Width-5, this.pictureBox1.Size.Height-5, myCallback, IntPtr.Zero);<br />
//      e.Graphics.DrawImage(myThumbnail, 150, 75);<br />
 <br />
      this.pictureBox1.Image = myThumbnail;<br />
      this.pictureBox1.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.CenterImage;

The code works fine for me.

public partial class Form1 : Form
{
    public Form1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();

        Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort myCallback = new Image.GetThumbnailImageAbort(ThumbnailCallback);
        Image myThumbnail = this.imageList1.Images[0].GetThumbnailImage(this.pictureBox1.Size.Width - 5, this.pictureBox1.Size.Height - 5, myCallback, IntPtr.Zero);
        this.pictureBox1.Image = myThumbnail;
        this.pictureBox1.SizeMode = PictureBoxSizeMode.CenterImage;
    }

    private bool ThumbnailCallback()
    {
        return true;
    }
}

And the app exits fine.

Failure to exit is usually caused by a thread not terminating correctly. Does your abort callback get triggered? Does it correctly return?

You don't need to release the Image. This is handled by the Imagelist for you provided that you have added your image list via the designer or correctly disposed of it manually, either way though, this wouldn't prevent your app from closing.

After you have closed your app, and it's stuck without terminating, try hitting the pause button and looking at the call stack to see where it is stuck.

RegisterHotKey help

I want to modify this RegisterHotKey func to allow me to set it using HashKey instead of a shortcut key but I'm not exactly sure how to do this.

this is the code for registering the hotkey in the object

protected bool RegisterHotkey(Shortcut key)
{   //register hotkey
    int mod=0;
    Keys k2=Keys.None;
    if (((int)key & (int)Keys.Alt)==(int)Keys.Alt) {mod+=(int)Win32.Modifiers.MOD_ALT;k2=Keys.Alt;}
    if (((int)key & (int)Keys.Shift)==(int)Keys.Shift) {mod+=(int)Win32.Modifiers.MOD_SHIFT;k2=Keys.Shift;}
    if (((int)key & (int)Keys.Control)==(int)Keys.Control) {mod+=(int)Win32.Modifiers.MOD_CONTROL;k2=Keys.Control;}

    System.Diagnostics.Debug.Write(mod.ToString()+" ");
    System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine((((int)key)-((int)k2)).ToString());

    return Win32.User32.RegisterHotKey(m_Window.Handle, this.GetType().GetHashCode(), (int)mod, ((int)key) - ((int)k2));
}

Set a license screen in deployment of Window based project.

Hi guys,

I have created a windows based project for my client and it works fine for him. He is my client and want to sell this product to further clients, so for this he wants that in deployment of the project a screen should appear that shows about to insert a license key and it must match with a license which is stored in an online database.

Creation of database and checking of license key is I think is not typical, but the typical act is how to create a screen which appears in the deployment of that project and appears at the time of installation.

If any one help me then I will be highly thankful to that person.

Thanks in Advance

What you are after, sounds like a Splash Screen:

www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/prettygoodsplashscreen.aspx[^]

You can add additional arguments in the code, which check to see if the project is registered or not, and if it is already registered, to not even display the Splash Screen, and just head to the main screen.
