Force UI Key

[pv=nRT]

Does anyone know a way to force a player to press enter via the Force UI Key Trigger. Thanks.

I'd like to know the answer too...and what for F9 or F10?

What to do you mean? It's just the GUI function used for it, but the question was different. Got it?

 

[Dino.pl]

LOL, I dodn't know about it

EDIT: It takes a string as the argument, so I doubt that it's possible to press enter for player.

 

[Drake Aran]

Well, for example you can give the function the string "!q" to force a player to press Alt+q...so I was wondering if anybody knows which characters or strings correspond to Enter and to F9-10.

Maybe it's the same as in AutoIt

Send Key list


Quick reference for the Send ( "keys" [, flag] ) Command.    ^ Ctrl    ! Alt    + Shift    # Win


To send the ASCII value A (same as pressing ALT+065 on the numeric keypad)
    Send("{ASC 65}")

Single keys can also be repeated, e.g.
    Send("{DEL 4}") ;Presses the DEL key 4 times
    Send("{S 30}") ;Sends 30 'S' characters
    Send("+{TAB 4}) ;Presses SHIFT+TAB 4 times

To hold a key down (generally only useful for games)
    Send("{a down}") ;Holds the A key down
    Send("{a up}") ;Releases the A key

If you with to use a variable for the count, try
    $n = 4
    Send("+{TAB " & $n & "}")

If you wish to send the ASCII value A four times, then try
    $x = Chr(65)
    Send("{" & $x & " 4}")

Most laptop computer keyboards have a special Fn key. This key cannot be simulated.

Note, by setting the flag parameter to 1 the "keys" parameter is sent RAW. This is useful when you want to send some text copied from a variable and you want the text sent exactly as written.


Send is quite useful because windows can be navigated without needing a mouse.

For example, open Folder Options (in the control panel) and try the following:

Send("{TAB}") Navigate to next control (button, checkbox, etc) 
Send("+{TAB}") Navigate to previous control. 
Send("^{TAB}") Navigate to next WindowTab (on a Tabbed dialog window) 
Send("^+{TAB}") Navigate to previous WindowTab. 
Send("{SPACE}") Can be used to toggle a checkbox or click a button. 
Send("{+}") Usually checks a checkbox (if it's a "real" checkbox.) 
Send("{-}") Usually unchecks a checkbox. 
Send("{NumPadMult}") Recursively expands folders in a SysTreeView32.  



Use Alt-key combos to access menu items.  Also, open Notepad and try the following:

Send("!f") Send Alt+f, the access key for Notepad's file menu. Try other letters!
 
Send("{DOWN}") Move down a menu. 
Send("{UP}") Move up a menu. 
Send("{LEFT}") Move leftward to new menu or expand a submenu. 
Send("{RIGHT}") Move rightward to new menu or collapse a submenu. 


See Windows' Help--press Win+F1--for a complete list of keyboard shortcuts if you don't know the importance of Alt+F4, PrintScreen, Ctrl+C, and so on.

It doesn't work for me, even if it's very useful for other purposes

 

[Dino.pl]

Hmm, but is this correct?
^ Ctrl
! Alt
+ Shift
# Win

 

[Drake Aran]

! is Alt, but we already knew it.
# ...I'm afraid it means nothing for W3.
^ & + err...I still have to try ^^, but they ought to work.

It would be cool if you could turn off player's computer with your custom map, LOL.
