Posted: Mon Feb 07, 2005 2:06 pm Post subject: keyboard cursor |
|
|
ok need sum help with this. i want to make a simple program just for practice.
a program that simulates a right click to a certain letter and a left click to a certain letter. and makes the mouse move using the arrow keys.
doesnt seem too hard i gues. and well what program do u use to make such a program.
the idea, is to make the cursor useable for the keyboard. so u can work without a mouse
step after that will be, making an interactive ui and making it able to start on start up.
wud be cool if i got sum help _________________

there are already programs that enable you to use the numeric keypag arrow keys as a mouse. cant for the life of me remember the name but using keys as a mouse isnt very good or easy.
GL though |

its probably easiest in VB as its a MS thing and designed to play with windows. However VB is evil so stick with C, cos it's great
As for the question.. dont realy know, ask google _________________

are you going to make it as a exe ?
i thought about doing that with a html page as my desktop but never got round to it.
Ill be a tester for ya
you will need to make it customisable though as you will prolly have programs i dont and of course i wont want to see that |

well the menu button wud be sumthin like a small circle with an arrow innit similar to this
then you can customize the colour of the arrow. the colours of the menu. and you can choose yerself where to locate the arrows. also u can choose what each arrow will do.
so for instance u choose 4 arrows. 1 for a replacement of start button. 1 for a quickstart. 1 for a specific map and 1 for a specific program.
then u can choose where to place the arrows. sorta like in photoshop where u choose render and then the glare thingy to make sun thingy. and u can choose where to put it.
im now working on the diff coloured arrows, and the backgrounds with em.
still wondering wether to do or not make an active time/clock on the background. which shows the time and date in regular clock or digital clock.
still hard tho. will go on to make the animated slide windows for the menu's nxt. and the scrollbars. then i gotta figure out how windows will recognize it as a start bar. so the original bar...blue or silver...will disappear once this is used.
am also still searching for the code, that allows the prog to run at start up.
worrying stuff...and u can be my beta tester _________________
