keybd_event() won't use the numpad
I'm trying to get my program to type alt code characters like 'é'. This requires the program to hold alt use the number pad.
I use this to hold alt:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

void altKey(bool state)
{
if(state == true)
{
keybd_event( VK_MENU,
0x45,
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | 0,
0 );
}
else
{
keybd_event( VK_MENU,
0x45,
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,
0);
}
}
| |
And this to press the keys:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16
|
void pressKey(unsigned char key)
{
{
// Simulate a key press
keybd_event( key,
0x45,
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | 0,
0 );
// Simulate a key release
keybd_event( key,
0x45,
KEYEVENTF_EXTENDEDKEY | KEYEVENTF_KEYUP,
0);
}
}

The problem is when ever I call pressKey(VK_NUMPAD0), it uses the number keys that are not on the numpad. What is causing this and how can I fix it?
1 2 3 4

while(state==true)
{
//Hold alt
}

might work
