Sorry master, i tried... i tried.
It's great to see you around again, welcome back! Thanks very much!

GK_SYSRQ should have probably replaced GK_FREE1 or GK_FREE2 instead of being assigned to the same code as the space character.

Keybinds and UI events are entirely separate types, they cannot be mistaken for the other.

I don't know all of what's going on but it seems to me that the code that is checking for keybind activations is not differentiating UI bind codes and regular binds. You are right that would be a hack - a horrific one at that and you should avoid it at all costs. Look for the code that is processing the inputs, instead, and make sure that when it is processing the screenshot key, it is only processing the non UI codes.

It might be necessary when a key event is received to store in a variable somewhere whether the key came in through a bind or through UI input.

But how can a non UI key trigger an UI event? I suspect there's some underlying problem. I could add Space to the UI keys if someone doesn't think of a better solution but that would be a hack.

I added Key_SysRq to the SpecialGUIKeys, Space is not a GUI key and it gets the same number as SysRq (32). I can't find the number of special GUI keys anywhere.

There's nothing new there. The problem now only happens with PrtSc, i merged the PR after months of inactivity and i thought i could complete it. I added support for PrtSc myself. I don't know why i get the same keycode for SysRq and space in ev.KeyChar, it's not a problem with the checks there.

Have you taken a look at this? I suspect the problem lies with a lack of checks in this area.

Needless to say - and sorry to be pretty blunt - but the PR was marked WIP.

The key you use for screenshots doesn't matter, space always works and i don't know why. With PrtSC you get three shots pressing space instead of one tough.
Edit: now it only happens with SysRq.

Thanks, that's the default key for screenshots. Turns out it has nothing to do, right now i've got no idea of what's going on but pressing space i menus takes three screenshots and it's not even a special GUI key.

Well, what can I say? I THINK there was a good reason why ZDoom did not support this particular key!

It's this commit:
https://github.com/drfrag666/gzdoom/com ... c76cb3d0c8

The problem is adding the following line to GUIWndProcHook. It doesn't matter which key you put there. Is it a bug with the virtual key? It's supposed to work with Fn+Space too, weird.
Now what coud i do?
