    Default Capture users move in system?

    Hi,
    I've started programming in Qt4 in last year. Right now I'm searching for help with few problems:

    - How can I capture users moves in system? How reconize active windows, clicked buttons (not only in my application)? Is there any function or method to do this?

    Why I need this? I want to store all decisions that user make (after clicking REC in my program) and after few changes repeat them.

    Thanks for help,
    Anir

    there is no way to do this in Qt. You can check out platform API for the rest.

    OK, too bad.
    Maybe there is possibility to write text into label in other program or integrate my program with other?

    Yes. But you need to use the native API for that. Qt has a (good) policy of not poking with other programs. What you are trying to do is unportable anyway so it's fine to use the native API.
    Your biological and technological distinctiveness will be added to our own. Resistance is futile.

    Please ask Qt related questions on the forum and not using private messages or visitor messages.
