I'm trying to catch the event for when the user presses down there finger/mouse on a label. Right now I am using a TapGestureRecognizaer and it works as expected for a full tap/click.
Is there a simple way to get some sort of "MouseDown" event? I've been searching but haven't found anything.
The best way I have found to do this is to use a third party package called Mr.Gestures. Eventhough this plugin does cost $10/app. it gives you the Mouse Down event (along with a load of others) on all 3 platforms.
Event | Description
Down | One or more fingers came down onto the touch screen.

I’m not sure what are these called:
I mean the Show code with my wire stats, Show Memory indicator, etc..
Basically, I’m mostly interested so this autocomplete menu would only show files, or at the very least would prioritise files. How can this be achieved?
I’m in version 2022.2.1.
That popup is called Search Everywhere and you are on an "All" tab that includes combined results from Classes, Files, Symbols, Actions etc.
Either manually switch to the desired tab (using a mouse or by hitting Tab needed number of times) or invoke this popup for the desired search from the start. For that just use the shortcut for Navigate | File... (Ctrl + Shift + N here on Windows keymap).

Found the solution.
These things are called Actions, and the can be disabled in menu that appears after clicking the small funnel icon in the top right:
I tested, these changes seem to 'survive' a restart.
Yes, at the moment it is remembered only during the session.

(P.S. The same happens with Find in Files popup (IDEA-143972) and a few others similar popups as well)
I'm currently working on the last part of my studying project and I have to implement a chat functionality. I then began by realizing it from a new project (faster for testing to me). However, I am facing something, I don't know if it's a bug but there is the situation:
First, the problem comes from the input, there are two controls I will take as example:
Entry
Editor
I would like to use Editor for its multiline capability, it makes it more readable to me (Maybe it's possible from a simple Entry, but that's not the point I wanna focus on).
I can type my text, everything is good, but it's when I want to send this text that my problem is. In fact, it doesn't seem possible to have a submit button in the keyboard (I couldn't make it), so I created a button (which is gray, at the right of the input).
When I click that Button, you and me agree that we 'unfocus' the Editor, so Unfocused is raised and the method attached public void OnInputUnfocused(object sender, FocusEventArgs fe) {} is called.
So my question is: Why Completed is called too?
I put the project on github: https://github.com/Emixam23/ChatAppExample
If you take a look at the README or just by scrolling down, you will see some information about it and how to try the two different behaviors between Entry and Editor
Thanks for any help!
Hello I have a VB NET application and I would like to add it a keybord key pressed catching system so I can track any keybord key that is pressed on any application that is running on my computer and uses keybord.
If someone has any idea thanks for sharing it.
I Hope my question was clear.
Thanks.
You will need to use a Global KeyBoard hook, look at this CodePlex Project. It will allow you to intercept the Global Keyboard events.
From Link:
This library allows you to tap keyboard and mouse and to detect and
record their activity even when an application is inactive and runs in
background.
This library attaches to windows global hooks, tracks keyboard and
mouse clicks and movement and raises common .NET events with
KeyEventArgs and MouseEventArgs, so you can easily retrieve any
information you need:
I was wondering how to create a sort of auto clicker using VB.NET.
I would basicly have the click coordinates pre-defined and the clicks, which would have to be separated by delays I guess since I want more than one to happen periodically, would happen outside of the application window (I read this envolves extra system hooks?).
The only code I have been able to find is related to clicks on the application window, which is not what I am looking for.
In short: I want to click a button on the app window, which would initiate a number of clicks on certain pre-defined screen coordinates.
Thanks in advance :)
See this discussion on social.msdn: Simulate a mouse click in a program.
Uses winapi: SetCursorPos, GetCursorPos and mouse_event.
I believe you need to P/Invoke into Windows to accomplish this.
Have a look at the SendInput function.
If you are using automate the program,that program have some tabindex in order to relevant control.then you can use;
SendKeys.Send("{TAB}");
SendKeys.Send("{ENTER}");
it is more accurate on desktop application
How can I bind a key combination to my vb.net application? I know it has SOMETHING to do with the registry, but I have no earthly idea what or how to go about doing this. I want the user to be able to hit those keys when the app is open and have it execute my function, but not while the app is closed.
Thanks for the help!
If you are using a dialog, then you can put '&' into the text for some controls (buttons, checkboxes, radio buttons, etc) and this will cause Alt plus the next character in the text to be used as an accelerator/shortcut. i.e. "&Open" would activate the Open button if you press Alt+O. "Op&en" would activate if for Alt+e.
Beyond that, as Jason Irwin said, you need to add an event handler to your Form for KeyDown or KeyPress events, and then check if the keypress is the key combination you are interested in. This will only work if the user activates your form (clicks in it to give it the input focus. If they put it behind another window, it will not react to the key presses)
If you don't want to show a form, or want to react to keypresses when you're not the input-focus application, then it gets a bit more complicated (you either need to use a hidden form or a keyboard hook)
edit
OK, it looks like you want a keyboard hook. This looks like a good article.
It depends on what you are trying to do:
If you have a gui application and you want to handle key events then you can do that in a keydown eventhandler
If you want to do more low-level stuff and have an application that will intercept all key strokes (regardless of whether or not the application has focus/is visible) then you need to use pinvoke to hit the win32 apis. I suggest you read the following:

Using Google, I found this Keyhook example.
I've worked with keyhooks before, in Delphi WIN32, so I am a bit familiar with them. (Just not in C#.) If you add one to a DLL, all Hell might break loose since most virus scanners will recognise this as malware behaviour. (Especially if you use them in the wrong way, causing them to be injected in each and every process that's running on your system.)
A keyhook will allow key combinations to be captured from other processes, though.
For a solution without programming requirements: Drop a shortcut for the application on your desktop. Edit it, assign a shortcut, close it. Press shortcut to test...
