Question Key Down

[PRo-Beaniie]

Hey guys,

im looking for some code that can enable a e.keyvalue event when a player hits an object on form but i also want the form to load with the e.keyvalue event disabled any one know how to do this ?

To my knowledge you can't "disable" the e.KeyValue (in KeyDown and KeyUp events). I'm not sure exactly what you are looking for, but you could try putting a boolean switch in there somewhere.

Private useKeyCode As Boolean = False
Private Sub Form1_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown
    If useKeyCode = True Then 
       'do your code here
       Me.Text = e.KeyCode
    End If
End Sub

'To enable using the keycodes
Private Sub enableKeyCodes
    useKeyCode = True
End Sub

I'm not sure if this is what you were looking for, but I hope it helps or gives you an idea.

Thanks ill give it a try

Let us know if you need something else!

 

[PRo-Beaniie]

yeah there is somthing else i dont know wether your familliar with this code but is there a way to link this code to a timer like have the progress bar increase for the seconds elapsed...

this code is designed to stop the progress bars exeeding thier maximum value....

HEALTHBAR.Increment(Math.Min(25, HEALTHBAR.Maximum - HEALTHBAR.Value))

 

[Joshdbr]

Simply put that code into a timers 'Tick' event. You can then set the timers interval and the HEALTHBAR's value increment for your needs.

 

[PRo-Beaniie]

so the code would be somthing like this...

Distancebar.Increment(Math.Min(DTimer.tick, Distancebar.Maximum - Distancebar.Value))
