Sequence with "Control, Control" not working

[LukasFiniarel]

I want to open a WPF Window if a user presses the (left) Control button two times. This is my Code:

var openWindow = Sequence.FromString("Control, Control");
Action actionOpenWindow = () => { new MyWindow().Show(); };
assignment = new Dictionary<Sequence, Action>{{openWindow, actionOpenWindow}};

IKeyboardMouseEvents m_GlobalHook = Hook.GlobalEvents();
m_GlobalHook.OnSequence(assignment);

The Application starts correctly but the sequenze doesn't trigger my action. If I change the sequenze to "A,B", it runs perfectly.

Any updates on this? I have the similar issue when trying to trigger combination or sequence ending with Shift. Example: Combination.FromString("Shift+W") works but Combination.FromString("W+Shift") does not.

I think I found the issue and this fix has solved both your problem & mine according to my testing.

It doesn't work. Pressing any key after control fire action. Also, It doesn't work for Alt key. For example "ALt, Alt";

Hi @toelli, hi @kokabi1365, I have added the e.KeyCode.Normalize() fix (#113) and the following lines to the ConsoleHook Example.

  var map = new Dictionary<Sequence, Action>
            {
                {Sequence.FromString("Control+Z,B"), () => Console.WriteLine("CTRL-Z followed by 'B'")},
                {Sequence.FromString("Control+Z,Z"), () => Console.WriteLine("CTRL-Z followed by 'Z'")},
                {Sequence.FromString("Control,Control"), () => Console.WriteLine("CTRL followed by CTRL")},
                {Sequence.FromString("Shift,W"), () => Console.WriteLine("Shift followed by 'W'")},
                {Sequence.FromString("W,Shift"), () => Console.WriteLine("'W' followed by Shift")},
                {Sequence.FromString("Alt,Alt"), () => Console.WriteLine("Alt followed by Alt")},
                {Sequence.FromString("Escape,Escape,Escape"), quit}
            };

So I was able to test some sequences:

• Sequence Control, Control -> result: "CTRL followed by CTRL" - 🆗
• Sequence Control, Control, Control -> result: "CTRL followed by CTRL", "CTRL followed by CTRL" - is this correct ❓
• Sequence Shift, W -> result: "Shift followed by 'W'" - 🆗
• Sequence W, Shift -> result: "'W' followed by Shift" - 🆗
• Sequence Shift, W, Shift -> result: "Shift followed by 'W'", "'W' followed by Shift" - is this correct ❓
• Sequence Alt, Alt -> result: "" - ❌
• Sequence Alt, W -> result: "Shift followed by 'W'" - ❌

Any comments?

"Control, Control" doesn't work yet.
