Prevent RegisterHotKey from stopping the default key action? about hotkeylistener HOT 7 CLOSED

Interesting... Will need take a look at this.

False alarm, the mistake was on my side...

As the User32 functions (RegisterHotKey and UnregisterHotKey) are called using the this as the handle, I had to Invoke on the UI thread everytime I call one of your method that relies on those windows API functions. I forgot to do that for the suspend() and resume() calls. (which resulted in a silent ignore).

You should consider catching bool return value from HotkeyCore.UnregisterKey and HotkeyCore.RegisterKey for such cases. Maybe, if I'm actually doing it correctly, point the use of Invoke if calls are performed on background threads (maybe as a note in the README?).

Sorry again for the false alarm...
I truely love this project and the work you've done here, you're gold !

I'll definitely consider adding suspension of specific hotkeys.
For now however, try removing then re-adding a hotkey when needed.

You can also temporarily update a hotkey to another key then re-update to the original key after an action has taken place.

Lovely !

By the way it seems like when hotkeys are suspended and a WndProc(ref Message m) is called just afterwards, if the key is an old one then an exception occurs because it tries to access an element in the dictionary that does not exist anymore : 'System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException' (see Hotkey = HotkeyListener.Convert(this.Hotkeys[m.WParam.ToInt32()])).

Checkout the latest release v1.4.0.

In that case, you can use HotkeyListener's Suspend([hotkey]) method. This will allow you to suspend any specific hotkey and later on resume using it by calling the method Resume([hotkey]).

I have thought of using this logic (much better than an aggressive SendKeys) but Resume() and Suspend() only perform on all Hotkeys (and not specific). I could create a listener for each Hotkey but this seems a bit overkill.
