I would like a python option but that doesn't seem likely, I looked into c++ but I'm not intimately familiar and the methods I tried were not working. I need to be able to move the mouse(which I have been able to do) inside the game (which never works), and to press and or hold keys, AutoHotKey doesn't work for moving the mouse inside of popup dialogs only for controlling recoil and such. I have permission from the admin, I admin on one of his other servers, I'm not looking to release hacks for the game, its just a project I dabbled with for a while and would like to see out.
Does anyone have experience with this or ideas as to how I can simulate input from mouse or keyboard?

Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut to switch between the monitor and portion selection of this wacom preferences window, via a c++ console program?
Sorry if this is poorly worded, I've had trouble trying to find the right words to search for ways to do it.
I think it should be possible, although a bit tedious. You should be able to use the Windows API, and try to EnumWindows/EnumDesktopWindows to identify the respective application Window, and its respective controls (which are also Windows).
You should identify the window title, and class ids, for the app window, and the checkbox button controls, then when you enumerate through all the desktop windows, you can identify the ones you are interested in.
Then you can use the SendMessage() API to send messages to the controls (Windows) of interest to manipulate them.
It's a bit tedious, but sounds possible.
An example of use here to get an idea:
http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/windows/25280/
I've made a simple click bot to automatically play an android game on my Windows PC. It currently identifies when certain things change on the screen then moves the mouse and clicks the correct button.
Currently I am using the following win32api functions to achieve this:
Win32api.SetCursorPos(Position)
Win32api.mouse_event(winn32con.MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTDOWN,0,0)
Win32api.mouse_event(winn32con.MOUSEEVENTF_LEFTUP,0,0)
These work great however when I use the bot it takes over my computer's mouse and I basically have to let it run. Is there anyway I could simulate a click without it actually using my mouse, or is there a way I could isolate the bot on one of my other screens and be able to work freely on the other?
There is a lib specific for deal with user interaction components and periferics: pyautogui
Here, is a short and easy to try documentation for performing/simulating mouse click DOWN & UP

I'm working on a clone of Yakuake and, if you have used it, you'd know that one of it's features is stealing the focus for easiness.
Basically, you hit the "show" hotkey, the app appears and you can write on it.
You could be doing whatever thing with whatever app, (being Yakuake hidden), but as soon as you hit the hotkey, Yakuake appears and steals the focus. I want to do the same with my app.
I know there are some window manager rules that prevent applications from doing this, but Yakuake is doing it, why I'm not able to do it?
Also, this application is meant to be compatible with Windows, Linux and Mac, so no KDE or Gnome or < insert_your_favourite_window_manager_here > hacks; I won't go the detect-WM-and-do-hack way.
PS: I'm doing that app in C++ and Qt4.
EDIT:
Just to make it clear, I'm not asking for any code (but if you actually have some example, I appreaciate it). I'm asking for a way for doing it. What should I do to make the WM assign the focus to my app. Is there any standard way for doing so?
There is the Qt::WindowStaysOnTopHint....
The solution is simpler than I thought. I did an animation with a duration of 0s and at the end of the animation I just did a focus. This did the work.
If you want to do it with a "show" hotkey or shortcut you'll have to create and use a hook on the keybord.
Qt don't provide such things so you'll have to do it by yourself.
you can have a look at this post : QT background process
I don't know for other OS.
When you'll get the right keyboard event from your hook, you can create a window with the "allwas on top hint" and that should by ok.
I have a Flash player (flash9.ocx) embedded in an ATL window and have coded functionality into the swf to respond to the return/enter key being pressed.
Works fine from the standalone swf player but as soon as its played from within my embedded player it doesn't execute. It's as if my window is getting in the way somehow?
Is there any way to pass the keypress through to the player?
FYI, there isn't anything to weird in place on the form.
Thanks!
I'm not VC++ developer, but I use Flash a lot.
Though not sure, it seems that the embedded player doesn't have the focus. Make sure you've got this part covered on the Flash side of things:
the stage exists ( you movie is properly initialized)
you set the KeyboardEvent listener to the stage.
You could use the FocusManager to make sure you've got the focus.
I don't know if you can pass the focus from you app to the SWF OLE through some tabIndex or something.
If still this doesn't work you can try using the External Interface to add callbacks from your app to flash player ( basically call and actionscript function from your app ).
This was achieved through fscommand before, but External Interface seems to be the thing to use now.
Good luck!
I don't use flash a lot but i'm a C++ programmer. =)
Let's see if I can help you.
I believe that your application is catching all the events before your flash movie. I don't know if there is a better way to do this but you could listen for any keyboard event on your form and use the SetVariable of your ActiveX component to set a variable inside Flash. Then, in the Flash Movie you could set a watch for any changes on this variable and trigger your Enter event.
Hope this helps.
I'm developing an application in C++ that's partially driven by touch-screen on Windows XP Embedded. Some text entry will be necessary for the user. So far we've been using the standard Windows On-Screen Keyboard (osk.exe), but there are two main problems:
It's rather small on a higher resolution screen which will probably make it hard for users to hit the right keys
It's too "ugly" for the customer, who'd like a slicker on-screen keyboard that integrates better with the custom look-and-feel of the application so far.
Therefore I'm looking for alternatives for the Windows On-Screen Keyboard (osk.exe) that allow a larger size of buttons and can be skinned. Ideally it would have a BSD-like license for unburdened integration into a commercial app, but a royalty-free commercial solution could work.
Do you know of any such applications, or have you had a similar project where you solved the issue in another way?
We are using Click-N-Type for our systems. It is completely resizable. It has some customization possibilities, but I never tried them. We use it on "normal" Windows XP, but it should work on Windows XP embedded also.
I know this question is tagged 'c++', but here's an option for .Net that I found and integrated with less than 5 minutes work. (I've looked, and there isn't a .Net flavour of this question, and I guess it could be ported to C++ with very little effort too).
It uses the standard Windows On-Screen Keyboard (osk.exe), resizes it, docks it to the bottom of the screen and removes the title and menu bars, all from one call in your application.
The Code Project - Manage Windows XP On Screen Keyboard
The download is a single VB.Net class.
please check WPF Component(http://fpscomponents.com/Product.aspx?id=8) that is fully customizable by inbuilt editor. So programmer can fill it with own language and define layout!

Why not write your own keyboard UI? This would (should) be relatively trivial and give you complete control over its look and feel.
I programmed a On Screen Keyboard in Java.
This is working very fine when you want to tip into Java components and Java frames.
When you want to tip in every open window you have to send the key event by implementing Robot sender. The problem i have is that the focus owner get the sended key and when you open the keyboard the keyboard has the focus.
You can not realy implement a global Java keyboard, as far as i know.
When you only want to use the Keyboard for Java, use Java.
Otherwise you should use another language.
You should use a native language where you can handle the OS focus owner or a language where you can completly disable the keyboard focus but also can bring the keyboard to the front of the screen
