How to execute an action in my app always when user click ctrl+v (I want to assign a new alue to clipboard), or how to paste something in active window, when user clicks global hotkey in my app?
When something is pasted the control will receive the WM_PASTE message. So you can intercept this Message.
Simplest way (without knowing what else is on your main form) is to add to your main menu items called Copy / Paste - make the shortcuts Ctrl-C and Ctrl-V. Implement routines in response to these menu items click events (or use actions) and your code will get called...

I am using Delphi XE2 and Chromium CEF4Delphi. I am trying to use a web page via the TChromiumWindow component and would like to detect when an element is selected / clicked.
I saw this post..
Delphi Chromium - launch a command in Delphi application when button in web page is clicked by user
Unfortunately, I cant find the function AddEventListenerProc in the CEF4Delphi library. Neither can I find an alternative way to monitor a button / element click.
I would like to use the TChromiumWindow component to act as a "fron-end" to my app and would like to monitor user button clicks etc.
Can anyone help please ? I did try the developer forum but I dont see much activity there and was unable to register.
Many thanks..
The DCEF3 project has a group here : https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/delphichromiumembedded
But the CEF4Delphi and OldCEF4Delphi projects have a developers forum here :
https://www.briskbard.com/forum/
That forum has new posts almost every day and I try to answer them as soon as I can, usually in less than 24 hours.
If you have problems creating an account just send me a message and I'll activate your account manually.
The link you posted is very old and many things have changed in CEF since 2012.
There are several ways to detect when a HTML element has been selected, clicked, etc.
You can use a JavaScript event like "onclick" that calls a custom JavaScript extension. That extension would send a process message to the browser process to notify that the user clicked that element.
You can also use the GlobalCEFApp.OnFocusedNodeChanged that is triggered when an HTML element has been focused. This event is executed in the "render" process so you will also need to send a process message to the main browser process that the focused element has changed.
Use the JSRTTIExtension or the JSExtension demos as a template for your app.
They show you how to set a "mouseover" event that calls the "myextension.mouseover" function defined in a custom JS extension. The myextension.mouseover function executes Delphi code and sends a process message to the main browser process with some HTML information that is shown in the status bar.
They also have an example for a "MutationObserver" that calls a generic "myextension.sendresulttobrowser" function in the JS extension that sends the "value" attribute to the browser process.
Build the demo and right-click on the web page when it's fully loaded. Then select the "Set mouseover event" or "Add mutation observer" options to test what I described.
I am looking for allready for hours how to do this. So don't tell me to use search function. I know there are many things related.
There is many stuff on the internet and here, but no one works for me.
And I need a solution for Selenium IDE or something intergrated with it (if there is anything). Not RC and not WebDriver etc.
I need to simulate a key for an JavaScript confirmation popup, which has "OK" and "Cancel" buttons.
The problem is that I cannot select anything.
Popup appears when the site is opened. The Website itself is visible in the background, but no element can be selected (Firebug shows nothing as well, empty html(?)).
If I press ENTER key the confirmation box disappear (so it works fine manually).
This example seems good, but I can't find any interface in Selenium IDE to do this:
driver.switchTo().alert().accept();
(from Click in OK button inside an Alert (Selenium IDE))
I have only the following pattern:
Or write the test in html, which uses the "Command", "Target", "Value" pattern.
Appreciate any help.
EDIT1:

I have found that my problem is:
Selenium IDE will not be able to handle alerts that are within the page's onload() function. It will only be able to handle alerts that are generated after the page has completely loaded.
There is no "onload" function in my website, but the script part which creates the alert is inside html which is called with page (not in any function). This must be the same as "onload", because the alert comes immediately when the website is opened.
Once you have a confirmation box, you must consume it (Click OK or Cancel button)
You can use "chooseOkOnNextConfirmation" command to instruct Selenium IDE to simulate clicking OK button.
See http://www.guru99.com/enhancing-selenium-ide-script.html for more details.
You will not see the Javascript popup when IDE script is run.
Selenium IDE
Command : runScript
target : {window.onbeforeunload=function(e){};}
Command :click
target : xpath of button.
This will work fine but you are not able to see popup.
I use c++buider4 and TWebBrowser. How can I avoid "mailto" to be executed when this type of link is clicked? Actually, I dont want this link to be executed because when it's executed, it switch to mail application and open a new windows.
Thanks
Use the OnBeforeNavigate2 event to cancel the operation if the URL being requested starts with mailto:.
I'm writing an Outlook AddIn which is supposed to offer a new special folder which the user can drag mail items into, in order to have them processed by the AddIn.
Now I'd like to be informed whenever the user tries to do that; but before it happens. However, there does not seem to be a way to do that.
Using the folder's BeforeItemMove event, Outlook informs me when the user tries to move an item out of the folder - but there is nothing like a BeforeItemAdd event.
The one thing that comes close is the ItemAdd event of the folder's items collection, but that one fires after an item has been added; at that time, the operation has already been completed. I see no way to tell where the item originally came from or (unlike the BeforeItemMove event) to cancel the operation in case the AddIn determines that it is not valid for some reason.
Theoretically, I should be able to add a BeforeItemMove handler to all the other folders and react to them whenever the move target is the folder managed by my AddIn, but that seems like a bit of overkill... isn't there an easier way?
Can't do that, all MAPI events are asynchronous and fire after something happens.
Outlook does fire some UI evenst synchronously (like BeforeItemMove), but there is nothing like BeforeItemAdd.
When submitting SAS code via the SAS Toolbar (eg cmjohns response) the compiler knows that the code is being "DM'd" and will not run certain code (eg %window).
Is there a way to trick SAS into believing that code submitted from the Toolbar is coming from the Editor, therefore allowing interfaces (using %window) to be triggered via point and click?
It isn't super clean, but this will do it. The only downside is a program editor window will be open after it runs. There's probably a way to close it when it's done but I don't know what that is off hand.
pgm; clear;include "C:\path\code.sas"; submit;
Basically, this says to open a new program editor window and make sure no other code is in it, then include the contents of code.sas into the editor, then submit all the code that's in the program editor.
As a side note, in addition to a toolbar button, I think you could map a function key to a command like this as well. Press F9 to pull up the current mapping. There is a limit to the length of the command mapped to a key though so no long paths.
