Hey Noesis! You know, I was actually thinking about doing almost the same thing! Before I found the solution to fixing this, I had installed visual studio and code::blocks and trying to learn C language...hah! I did manage to get some example code working in those once or twice, but trying to includ...

Hi ACQ! Thank you very much for the advice! I took a look at my code again and found what was causing the slow down and memory spikes :mrgreen: It was nstroke, in the receive() function! The one variable I ignored the longest because it seemed to not do very much. I had it set as "int*" or an intege...

Got a little further this time. Now I can easily send keys with a homemade function: send_keys( ). At first I couldn't figure out why it caused my mouse to go to to right edge whenever I used it. Then I realized that I was actually using the 'device number" for the mouse! :roll: So, to use send_keys...

Interception is a driver / library for capturing key strokes, mouse button presses, and mouse movement (maybe joysticks as well?). It can then either block that input, let it through, or turn it into something else. The most important feature is all of this can be based on a device number or hardwa...

I'm familiar with how to use an internet explorer activex control inside of a GUI, but I need to use something else because: 1. The intended users for my program don't use IE and probably never update it. Most likely they still have Internet Explorer 8 installed. 2. IE has a bad reputation for follo...

Thank you, that really confused me for a while. It didn't explain very much about IconSmall view, so I thought it was just another icon size and not a different 'mode'.

I'm trying to create my own replacement for the system tray using the TrayIcon Library. So far, adding icons works ok, but nothing shows up if I do LV_SetImageList(il,1) . If I use LV_SetImageList(il,0) the icons show up, but since LV_SetImageList is set to large, you can't really click and select a...

I've been working on building a dock completely in AHK. The reson is because I'm very unsatisfied with ObjectDock . The only peice of the puzzle that's causing me major problems is grabbing the image for what's being dragged over. You'll notice that if you drag anything on your desktop or from explo...
