Dead Keys
-
Hi! I'm trying to do a virtual keyboard for my application. I want it to be localizable but I have a major problem: how can I emulate a key stroke with SendKeys for the so called dead keys? I tryied for example with: SendKeys.Send("{^}e"); //(for the french ê) but it doesn't seem to work. Am I doing something wrong? Is it even possible to do? Thanks to anyone who'll reply. Loveday

Is the keyboard switched to the French culture keyboard? There are 10 kinds of people in the world.
Those that read binary...
...and those who don't. -

I believe that you can't. What you probably will need to do is reproduce the dead keys behavior, i.e., when you detect a dead key press, you wait until the next key press to really execute the action, e.g., SendKeys.Send("ê"). I see dead pixels Yes, even I am blogging now!
