I used the 0x0029 from:
#define VC_BACKQUOTE 0x0029
but when I press backquote/circumflex (the key to the right of the 1) nothing happens.
I'm trying to make a layout with single keys:
F1 F2 F3 F4 F5
^ 1 2 3 4 5
Q W E R
A S D F V
SHIFT SPACE
with every key being 1x1 except shift 2x1 and space 3x1.
However with my current setup shift doesn't appear at all the rest works as it should.
My graphic files contains 3 (or 6) rows of keys with 10 keys per row the first 2 (or 4) rows contain the single keys the 3rd (or 5th and 6th) contain the shift and space key.

Any idea what I did wrong?
It would be nice (though potentially out of scope) to have a list of inputs that automatically scrolls and fades out after a certain number of seconds following the keystroke. For example, I press A, then S. It shows A, then pushes up the A, then shows the S, then the A fades out, then the S.
This would be the ideal situation for doing tutorials without wasting screen space on showing the entire keyboard (and also preventing people from missing quick keystrokes). Of course, I could probably use one of the many applications that already do this, but it would be perfect if it was directly integrated into my recording software so I can set it and forget it as well as not having it block my view.
So I'm using the WASD preset and import them exactly like in the vimeo tutorial video, but the TAB, R and F keys don't show (they are invisible).
It appears that the 2nd row of keys in the preset texture isn't being shown (it does show if I import the texture without the .ini ofc). I think this is the case ever since I realized that all the keys that DO show are in the 1st row of keys, and the ones not showing in the 2nd row.
not work on OBS-Studio-20.1.3-Small Chinese-Simpl Language. Windows 7 64 bit.
can you put an "Alt" in to the "wasd-extended"? it would be nice if i have an "Alt"
When uiohook.dll is loaded into OBS and altdrag is running on the system
when using the alt key and dragging to move windows on the system, alt-drag does not detect that the mouse key has been let go. Instead the user must click to let go of the window
application should not conflict, this can be tested by;
letting go of MB1, the window should stop moving with the cursor

BTw... i would prefer a QWERTZ-Layout.... don't do american QWERTY only ;)
After following the installation video, I reloaded OBS but still can't see the new entry in the sources menu.
Is there anything I could provide for debugging?
EDIT:
Only the 64bit version doesn't show the new menu entry. The 32bit one works!
Describe the bug
When using a key with no natural up/down state (eg. scroll) the overlay does not display/update as expected.

Expected behavior
Mouse overlay shows scroll inputs visibly

The instructions in the README file are ineffective in installing the plugin. I tried those steps and others numerous times in multiple different ways, and none of them worked. Many of us would like a clarification on how to install the plugin on linux, please.
Hi~
Would you mind provide the .psd file of the layout? Or what is the font of the "asdf"?
Thanks a lot!
When loading WASD preset there's no R, F or TAB keys, it looks like this:
I've tried with both .ini files, the one from v1.0 and v1.1, same error.
However the config seems to be correct, those missing keys are specified in the fields key_order, key_width, key_height, key_row and key_col.
Input History fails to capture duplicate key presses. (see attached)
Also if possible an auto clear of history based on update interval or similar would be appreciated.
I made an overlay with works perfectly well but the moment i give focus to the Tekken 7 window, the overlay doesn't detect key presses anymore, until give focus to another window
Here's the config file if needed. I don't use the mouse overlay, gamepad overlay nor key history.

I am currently trying to add the DELETE key to my overlay. According to https://github.com/univrsal/input-overlay/blob/master/libuiohook/include/uiohook.h#L236 it should be 0x0E53. When I use that in my .ini, the key is not registered in the input overlay. i even tried using a 1x1 overlay with it being the only key.
What was supposed to happend:
When I hit DELETE, input overlay should detect it and light the DELETE key in my overlay.

Might be that I’m just missing something here, of course. I’m pretty new to this tool and the whole input hooking thing in general :)
Hello.
Today I've been trying to build your plugin in VS2017.
After couple hours of struggling I found probably your thread https://obsproject.com/forum/threads/solved-issues-with-plugin-loading.79508/
So it should be linked with XInput9_1_0 rather that XInput. Please fix this for the future developers. This issue is hard to diagnose, but solution is very simple.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Install input-overlay, add it to scene, use default preset

Additional information:
So, the mouse overlay was disappearing when I added the ini. I looked at it and changed "1_layout_type=0" to "1_layout_type=1" and that fixed it. However, the side buttons were reversed, so I swapped them and that fixed that. However mouse wheel up and down weren't working, and I wasn't able to get that to work.
Hey!
I'm trying to set up an overlay where I have only 3 buttons, left arrow, right arrow and the Numpad up arrow that I use for jumping.
However I do not know what to write in order to have the Numpad up arrow to register. In the list of buttons this is what is says: 0xEE00 | VC_KP_8.
But even if I write it like that, or if I replace "VC_KP_8" with its code, it doesn't work. Could you please help me how I have to enter it into the ini file?
Thank you!
Hey man, i've been using your plugin to make myself a basic street fighter overlay, but there's stuff that i'd like to do regarding the history that i can't at the moment.
The problem is that the history shows which keys are used when in street fighter (and various games), each specific command has a name and that name is used by the community (e.g. a Light-Punch on my keyboard is Q, however it's name should be LP, and on an american keyboard it should be A). So i'd like to be able to attribute images to keys, or at the very least custom names, so that the history matches the input overlay
Being able to only allow specific keys to show up in the history would also be pretty neat, because if i stream with the history i can't afford to type any password even though i only have the history on for 6 specific keys. Would also be neat to be able to show the history fully horizontally, in order to show combos properly
Also, the names of arrow keys is messed up (it shows their value instead), i don't know why
What happened: (v4.2 because 4.4 won't install) Mouse direction flickers all over the place in-game (Quakeworld) even during smooth single directional moevement. Works properly out of game. Sensitivity doesnt fix the issue. It is like the movement indicator is trying to 'recenter' after every tic. "Use Monitor center" option freezes the mouse input.

this is a great tool,but i've noticed that when i'm playing this MMORPG Guild Wars 2,the key strokes won't register. when I test it on OBS screen , it works just fine. but when i got back to the game(GW2 in this case), key strokes just won't be registered anymore. and what is even more strange is that when im in GW2, the alphabets won't register,but the tab, caps locks ,shift,ctrl ,enter ,space and back space will be correctly registered.
do you know what is the problem?
ps: some other games works just fine on my pc witcher 3 etc.

This plugin is phenomenal for tutorials, but in applications where you're using a command line - in my case, Rhino 3d where you type the name of a command rather than a shortcut key - it's not useful.
I'm wondering if an option to determine what keys/clicks determine when you go to a new line. For instance, any time Ctrl, Space, Enter, or Right Click is pressed it starts a new line.
Hello,
I found the bug to be happening while I'm using it on Fedora 28. What ends up happening is that the readme describing to move the files to /.config/obs-studio/plugins/ but:
error: os_dlopen(/usr//lib64/obs-plugins/input-overlay.so->/usr//lib64/obs-plugins/input-overlay.so): libuiohook.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryIf you can get back to this thread or release an update (or even give some advice of how to stumble through the code to change it myself) it would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

What happened: Sorry, but I'm fairly new to OBS and I can't seem to install this plugin correctly. I'm running the 32 bit on Windows 10. I've tried following the instructions, but can't get it to show up in OBS. Your help would be appreciated!
I downloaded the Source Code because the actual input overlay download isn't there. I only see Source Code as a zip file and a tar... . Anyways I see the source code, but there's no plugin in it, so I cant use it;.
Similar to the problem below, OBS Studio won't load the plugin and seems to produce the same error (with slightly different formatting). I have tried installing the suggested VC++ runtimes (which apparently fixed it for the previous issue) but it did not work for me. Please see below the log file generated after installing the VC++ runtimes, which looks the same as it did before.
Also, please feel free to giggle at the age of my system. Still going strong 10+ years later.

Hi
What happened: I try to use key icons instead plain text, using the samples arrow-key-icon, when i load .ini file, my OBS just crash, i will try to understand how .ini file works to apply to another layout that i made.
Theres someting wrong with this samples files, because i really cant use.
This is I have into .ini file:
.# Input Overlay config v.4
.# The amount of key icons in the texture
.1_icon_count=4
.# Dimensions of the keys
.1_icon_w=128
.1_icon_h=128
.# The order of the icon order using their key codes
.# Get them here (Search for "VC_" and then the key name):
.# https://github.com/univrsal/input-overlay/blob/master/libuiohook/include/uiohook.h#L137
.#2_icon_order=0xEE4D,0xEE50,0xEE4B,0xEE48
.2_icon_order=0xE048,0xE050,0xE04B,0xE04D"
In the 2 last lines, i change some keys from the github, bus still getting error, ignore the first dot.
And i attached a .png file and my log file.

Hi, Im trying to set up multiple key with the keyboard overlay. In your .ini file, there's a line named key_order = . I try a lot of combination like 0x0036 && 0x0002, etc... Nothing working.
I think you should indicate somewhere in your ini file how to set arrow keys (Windows) on the overlay when modifying "2_key_order".
Left arrow: 2424832
Right Arrow: 2555904
Up Arrow: 2490368
Down Arrow: 2621440
Currently, the only arrows listed in the List you provided in the ini file are for the numpad.
EDIT: Nevermind, this highlights the key when ANY key is pressed. How would I set arrow keys to work with this overlay?
Hi, the side buttons on my mouse are reversed. I saw that in a previous version this was supposed to be fixed. Maybe it fixed it for some mice and broke it for others? Can this be reconfigured easily?

Cannot see mousewheel up or down on mouse. Uncommenting MWU and MWD on preset ini just messes up the alignment.
I play steam games using my Switch pro controller, and It works great. I have gotten my pro controller to work with your plugin, but the buttons are in the x-box controller layout. Is there any way that you could release a preset that would light up the correct buttons when pressed? I have tried for hours but yet I am unable to get anything close to what I am looking for. I can get the button labels in the right spot, but then when I press x, y will light up and vice versa. If not, maybe you could give me an explanation on how to make my own? Maybe I'm missing something simple. If not, thanks anyway!
