Send Apps keystroke (aka VK_APPS, context menu, right-click) (1 Viewer)

[BennTech]

Has anyone figured out a way to send the keyboard Apps key (aka the context menu)? I do NOT want to send a mouse right-click but rather the actual Apps key on the keyboard. It maps to virtual key VK_APP (93 or 0x5D). I've tried using Windows messages, sending a simple WM_CHAR, and macros to send WM_KEYDOWN/UP and WM_KEYDOWN/CHAR/UP. None work--or maybe I'm just getting the params wrong.

Is there a way to send VK_APP? If not, can we get {APPS} added to the keystrokes so it would be easily accessible to all? Or maybe even a generic {###} so we could send any keystroke by number?

Hi.
IIRC (big "if"), IRSS should be able to do this. See: MediaPortal Wiki - MediaPortal Wiki)

Well, yeah, that's what I'm using and why I posted in the IRSS forum.

Like I said, though, it doesn't have an {APPS} key code like it does for {ESC} or {TAB}.

Oh.... my bad!
