Support Windows-Alt-PrintScreen keypress

[lesterjacobs]

Hi,

I have a keyboard with special keys on it like Volume up/down, channel up/down, mute, etc. Each of these keys generates a standard keypress (i.e. no special software required). I've been using girder to program these keys and I'm stuck on the "power" key. It generates the keypress Windows-Alt-Printscreen. Girder doesn't seem to be able to pick this up whereas it picks up all of the other special keys. I've tried both the standard and modified (MM keys) version of the keyboard dll.

Any help/suggestions?

Thanks
Lester

Yep, it looks like windows doesn't pass the print-screen button to Girder. I can fix this as soon as I learn how to program those kernel drivers. So i'm working on it

Thanks for looking into this Ron. This would be the final link in allowing me to completely utilize my wireless keyboard and mouse under Girder. This would help not just me but anyone else using the Gateway keyboard/mouse wireless combination.

Do you have any estimate as to when this functionality might show up in Girder?

Thanks
Lester

It will take quite some time,.. don't hold your breath. I'm really short on time these days. And this is rather complicated stuff.
