Key pressed time Logic

[manchukuo]

Hello i am currently facing this problem, i am doing a kind of game where when the user presses a key like the 'a' key it makes jump the object, but how to detect key press in a way to know how much jump, if you press the key for a tiny time do a little jump or if you got pressed the button too much jump only a maximum. Thanks

Did you read the documentation, specifically about bits 0-15 of the LPARAM parameter?
