Hi everyone, I wrote a little while back about how I wanted to tie the arrow keys specifically to my program so that they could be used exclusively for the program instead of being intercepted by a screen reader. I attempted to modify the code from the tutorial I found, but it is producing some rather strange results. In addition to not allowing the arrow keys to work inside of the program, the program also blocks the arrow keys in other windows. Can anyone tell me, please, what is going wrong and how I can fix it? Here is the code I have pasted at the bottom of my main file: def OnKeyboardEvent(event): # return True to pass the event to other handlers return (event.Key not in ['Up', 'Down', 'Right', 'Left']) # create a hook manager hm = pyHook.HookManager() hm.KeyDown = OnKeyboardEvent hm.HookKeyboard() pythoncom.PumpMessages()
Thanks for your help. Best, Ryan
