Key actions in gauges

[Rocky 128]

Hello guys !!Do you know how to trigger an action with a keypress in a gauge developed in C ?I know how to trigger an action with a mouse click, using MOUSE_CHILD_FUNCT or MOUSE_CHILD_EVENT, but not with a keypress.Thanks for any help !!

Phew that's a nice question. I'm also quite interested in that.I only could imagine you could realize it with FSUIPC or even with the Windows API... Some clever guys got it... PSS and DreamFleet for example... No idea... Arne, please help! :DEtienne :-wave

I used a modified DInput sample of the DirectX SDK for such a purpose. Maybe it works directly with the Windows API, but I haven't found it yet.Arne Bartels

The use of DirectInput seems to be the best solution. I wanted to download the DirectX SDK, but the 173 MB were too much for me... Even if I have cable connection, it will be long. I'll try to download it during the night.Thanks for your help !!Eric
