I want to use F9 for something in Firewall, but when it is pressed it automatically takes a screenshot and saves it in the Dark Basic folder. Is there a way I could disable this?

Thanks

i think you might be able to use Disbale systemkeys, its something like that anyway.

Compile it as a standalone executable and run it from there. You can use scancodes to check for an F9 press. I think...

Yeah, I know the scancode, I found that with the input6 example. It gives me all the scancodes when I press keys. Anyway...

So your saying that it won't take screenshots if it is compiled? I should try that. I was considering the disable systemkeys also, but was kind of worried that the user wouldn't be able to minimize my game if they wanted to.

Thanks guys.
