hi,
looking at the plugin's help it looks like it is not possible:

Code: Select all

{Ctrl} or {Control} 
{Shift} 
{Alt} 
{Return} or {Enter} 
{Back} or {Backspace} 
{Tab} or {Tabulator} 
{Esc} or {Escape} 
{Spc} or {Space} 
{Up} 
{Down} 
{Left} 
{Right} 
{PgUp} or {PageUp} 
{PgDown} or {PageDown} 
{Home} 
{End} 
{Ins} or {Insert} 
{Del} or {Delete} 
{Pause} 
{Capslock} 
{Numlock} 
{Scrolllock} 
{F1}, {F2}, ... , {F24} 
{Apps} (This is the context-menu-key) 
These will emulate keys from the numpad: 
{Divide} 
{Multiply} 
{Subtract} 
{Add} 
{Decimal} 
{Numpad0}, {Numpad1}, ... , {Numpad9} 

You could always use the "Set master volume" action.

but when i use the keyboard.volumeup there is an osd display. anybody as an idea how can i see it without the keyboard.volumeup?

Try this one.. (copy&paste into EG)

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<EventGhost Version="918">
    <Macro Name="Python Script" Expanded="True">
        <Action Name="VolumeMute">
            EventGhost.PythonScript(u'import win32api\nwin32api.keybd_event(173,0,0,0)\nwin32api.keybd_event(173,0,2,0)')
        </Action>
        <Action Name="VolumeDown">
            EventGhost.PythonScript(u'import win32api\nwin32api.keybd_event(174,0,0,0)\nwin32api.keybd_event(174,0,2,0)')
        </Action>
        <Action Name="VolumeUp">
            EventGhost.PythonScript(u'import win32api\nwin32api.keybd_event(175,0,0,0)\nwin32api.keybd_event(175,0,2,0)')
        </Action>
    </Macro>
</EventGhost>

it works but for some strange reason i cant see the osd. i have an hp laptop. maybe these help??

[jinxdone]

I was hoping that it would trigger the OSD as well, but apparently it did not. The OSD you are talking about comes from some of the HP programs, it's not a native windows feature. I really don't know what you should do to trigger it since the earlier thing I suggested did not work.

Most people just use the EG's built-in sound/volume actions. I think it's very likely that we will have an graphical OSD plugin at some point in the future with which you can have a volume bar and other graphics generated by EG. But until then, sorry..
