First, I would like to know what is the difference between Global Hotkeys and Hook Global Keystrokes and using them as hotkeys?
Second, I wan to use Global Hotkeys in my application, it will have 2 parts: 1. I will make a window that shows the user what keys he's pressing right now, with KeyUp function, it will save the combination. 2. When the combination from step 1 is pressed, it will call specific function
The user can have several hotkeys combinations at the same time, each hotkeys combination call DIFFERENT function.
I found lots of solutions/explanations/whatever in the internet but I don't know which will be the best for my needs - here's where I need your help.
Here are some (maybe all) of the solutions/explanations/whatever I found:
