I think the scroll wheel sends arrow keys, but since there isn't a "rawkeysdown()" function to match the keysdown() function it would require either an external or the function to be added with livecode builder. At which point I wonder.. Is there a way to hook in to the system timer? (the one that decides if the screensaver/sleep mode should activate.)
No clue how to access such a thing. (Could go with the simple method and request a rawkeysdown() feature) On Wed, Dec 21, 2016 at 8:17 PM, Terry Vogelaar <tvogel...@de-mare.nl> wrote: > I’m working on a productivity & RSI prevention app. So I want to notice > activity while my project is not the frontmost application.
