I found a few bugs (May be known):

The NumPad does not show hardware presses.
and there is some confusion with the sym keyboard.

Ian: Sorry, I was not ignoring you, I just got sidetracked!

I am working on the keypress thing. I'm trying to make it work on each gui that is open. Hopefully coming soon.
Alas, I broke the sym kb when I made some needed changes. It is obsolete (it just doesn't know it yet.) The newest version will use xml files for the numpad and sym window (or any others you want.) Again, coming soon.

Thanks for the feedback!

hi!,
i would like to make a suggestion. is it possible to add game support so i can see my pressed keys ingame?

[Micahs]

I'm not sure. I think that if it won't work as-is in whatever game you are playing, it won't work at all. The key detection routine uses standard hotkeys and these may not work in directx games.

Hi There,

Great resource indeed !

I'm trying to see how I could try to extend it to support unicode characters (chinese, tai, ...)

So I've changed the font to use Arial Unicode MS, and I've tried both the {Asc 3605} syntax or directly put unicode chars in the layout xml file (encoded in UTF-.

I'm try to go deeper with the tranform thing, but even tje keyboard buttons don't display the unicode chars, I guess I'm missing something obvious (I'm new to Autokey) but I havn't yet found out what

Any advice welcome

Were you every able to get the zero button to work on the NUMPAD?

Micha, I just stumbled across AHK and ran across your on screen keyboard, and am looking for something exactly like this. Great Job. I'd also like to know if you were able to get the zero to work..

Thanks for sharing.

Hm, I was wondering if an onscreen keyboard would be a way to get around keyloggers installed in alot of dubious internet cafes. I am wandering off to Thailand this summer, and plan to use internet cafes alot to check my emails, update my blog and upload pictures - but I would like to avoid entering any passwords with the keyboard. Any ideas if this would solve a problem like that, or could be extended ?
Hm, when thinking about it, I could extend it to enter bogus characters and delete them afterwards - annoying for normal use, but for quick password entries this could be a nice thing.

Sorry for the long absence! My work situation has changed and I have little time or energy to devote to AHKOSK. More improvements and additions coming soon, though.

@sportebois
I'm not sure about unicode chars. Sending it shouldn't be a problem using techniques recently devised, but displaying it in the button might be more difficult. This thread discusses unicode stuff and, briefly, buttons. Regarding buttons, the conclusion was "That is even harder." Worth looking into, I guess.

Actually, the name is Micahs, not Micha. I say this only because there is already a Micha on the forum.
About the zero - I completely forgot that it wasn't working! I will look at it. It probably is something stupid I did to break it.
[EDIT] Actually, the zero on the main keyboard no longer works - it must be spreading!

@hotzenpl0tz
I tried AHKOSK against Spy Arsenal's Family Key Logger and it did not catch any virtual keystrokes. This is not to say that all key loggers will miss them, but it's a good sign.

Thank Micahs. The On screen keyboard is an awsome program and I'm looking forward to using it. Sorry 'bout getting your name wrong.

[Micahs]

No Worries! I just didn't want any identity confusion.

I have fixed the "0" issue in both the numpad and the main kb. Soon I will post it. There are some other things I am adding and tweaking first. (And yeah, it was something stupid!)

Micahs, I hope this doesn't sound ungratefull or pushy, but do you have any idea when you might post the latest and greatest. I'm just excited to start using it... Thanks.
