If I do a control+shift+something, the shift is not catched

Sorry about that. Refresh the page and it should be updated.

None of these seem to work:

• lower case letters
• { } | ? ~
• Insert

Is there a reason you use the vk codes with GetKeyName instead of using Chr() ?

Also, what are you using to make the animated gifs?

But well done, I was just asking about one of these. I may eventually build my own.

Thank you for the omission report

The reason I use the vk codes is to catch as many of the special keys like Volume_UP and WheelRight without having to type out a very long string.

I use LICEcap to make screenshots.

Thank you for giving it a try.

excellent

Thank you.
One of the many reasons I post here is because I miss important things when I program. I appreciate all of the help that the community gives by pointing out what I forgot

I added Win and NumpadEnter but I can not test for NumpadEnter because I do not have a keyboard with it on it.

I can also not get it to just show a single control, alt, or shift without a key that goes along with it. Space is shown as just a space between the characters you type. I am not exactly sure how you would want it displayed.

[huyaowen]

space can also display just like "Space"

The Space can often be used when PPT is playing.If i record the screen,wanna show it out.also single control alt or shift.

[guest3456]

shifted letters don't seem to be detected anymore

maybe because of this change in 1.1.20:

Fixed VK to keyname conversions for keys 'A' to 'Z' to respect layout.

• Applies to: GetKeyName, Hotkey control, A_PriorKey, KeyHistory and Input EndKey ErrorLevel (except where Shift key is required).
• All other keys, including those that produce non-ASCII letters, were already translated according to AutoHotkey's current keyboard layout.

looks like it still works in 1.1.19

link is dead in the original post

there's also a bug, where if the overlay GUI is active and the Caret isn't hidden, then you get duplicate outputs for one keypress, because the keys are being sent to the Edit control. adding +ReadOnly to the edit control causes gray background which messes up the transparency

Sorry, my website provider is closing and I had to find a new host. Sadly I can not find hosting as cheap so I am going to be moving everything to Github for now. I have updated the main link to the most recent version I have. Sorry about that.
