Quick Question

Hello everyone, I was just wondering how I would go about making it so a button which currently performs an action will perform the same action if I press the enter key instead? I am using Visual Basic 2008 express edition. Could someone also tell me what the dimensions of a normal window are? (EG, full size window on google chrome) Thanks

 

To detect enter keypress you can use a timer which will check if the key is pressed and then click the button within code. Or you can place the code inside the if statement.

Code:

If e.KeyCode = Keys.Enter Then
Button1.PerformClick()
end if

A full sized window can really depend on the computers resolution. If you want to get the dimensions of the users full sized window you can use.

Code:

        Dim DimensionX
        Dim DimensionY
        'Put window in its maximized state
        Me.WindowState = FormWindowState.Minimized
        'Grab width and height of window
        dimensionx = Me.Width
        DimensionY = Me.Height

 

Thanks Matt

 

Its a hotkey so as matt said its

if e.keycode = keys.enter then
Button1.Performclick ()
end if
