Hey, i have an edit control, and i want to call a certain function when enter is pressed. How can i tell when enter is pressed and the edit control has focus?
Why doesn't anything happen with the code below:
case WM_KEYDOWN:
MessageBox(hwnd, "key pressed", "", MB_OK);
break;
Check for the following message
WM_GETDLGCODE:
Then in response to that message,
return( DLGC_WANTALLKEYS );
so .. to recap, just add this.
throw that in your dlgproc. Good luck.Code:case WM_GETDLGCODE: return( DLGC_WANTALLKEYS );
That's really cool! Much simpler than what I've been doing...
Code:#include <cmath> #include <complex> bool euler_flip(bool value) { return std::pow ( std::complex<float>(std::exp(1.0)), std::complex<float>(0, 1) * std::complex<float>(std::atan(1.0) *(1 << (value + 2))) ).real() < 0; }
I'm having a hard time trying to figure this one out. What do you do after you'e added that. Are you supposed to add some code inside of the case?
Never mind, i figured out a good way of doing this. I just made a hidden button and gave it the default style. So now when ever enter is pressed the button is called and i check to see if the edit box has focus.
Heya all, sorry I bump this ooold thread...
But I want to do the same as pinkcheese (get a notify if the user presses <enter> in a single line edit control)
And the suggestions of this thread don't work in my prog.
I have a application that consist only of one modal dialog that is called on startup (well not quite, there's the main window where the user can set things up and then click a button to open the dialog; but the dialog is the main part of the app)
I created the edit in the source with CreateWindowEx.
There's no WM_KEYDOWN messages coming from the edit. I also have tried to make a button with the BS_DEFPUSHBUTTON style, but it only fires its function when clicked, not when I press Enter somewhere in the diag.
plz helpI'll post code if you need it to see; just tell me which section of the code you wanna see.
Thx,

I got it!
The solution: Subclassing!
if anyone needs that, too, I'll post a link to a cool Tut that helped me.
