NAME¶

SDL_HINT_WINDOWS_RAW_KEYBOARD_EXCLUDE_HOTKEYS - A variable controlling whether or not the RIDEV_NOHOTKEYS flag is set when enabling Windows raw keyboard events.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <SDL3/SDL_hints.h>

#define SDL_HINT_WINDOWS_RAW_KEYBOARD_EXCLUDE_HOTKEYS "SDL_WINDOWS_RAW_KEYBOARD_EXCLUDE_HOTKEYS"

DESCRIPTION¶

This blocks any hotkeys that have been registered by applications from having any effect beyond generating raw WM_INPUT events.

This flag does not affect system-hotkeys like ALT-TAB or CTRL-ALT-DEL, but does affect the Windows Logo key since it is a userland hotkey registered by explorer.exe.

The variable can be set to the following values:

• "0": Hotkeys are not excluded. (default)

• "1": Hotkeys are excluded.

This hint can be set anytime.

AVAILABILITY¶

This hint is available since SDL 3.4.0.
