I got the mouse working fine using Mouse.WindowHandle = drawSurce, however i dont see an option do to this for the keyboard. I assume it has something to do with the current focus, but i’m not sure how to approach the solution.

Thanks

An easy way to fix this is to set your Game.InactiveSleepTime parameter. If you set it to System.TimeSpan.Zero, your game will run full speed all the time. I personally have mine set to 10000 ticks so it doesn’t use a full CPU core when inactive, but doesn’t come to a halt. Give that a shot.

I’ve got really nice effect engaging xWinForms, the beta version. Although it needs to be adjusted to your needs, you’ve got many Controls available. The downside is missing documentation and you must recognize product on your own. Look at demo of 1.0 version on youtube.
I’ve managed to get application with one window, which is basic XNA game window and second window containing WinForms. Really good software.

In program.cs

Then in the constructor of game1:

{
...
System.Windows.Forms.Button.FromHandle(form.getMyButton1Handle()).Click += new EventHandler(do_something_when buttonpressed);
}

do_something_when buttonpressed(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
//Do the code here like:
mygameobject.setEnemySpawnType(1);
}

And in the form class(Form1.cs):

public IntPtr getMyButton1Handle()
{
return mybutton.Handle;
}

I would rather catch the events in the specific gameobject but don’t know how. This way works as long as the gameclass has a reference to the class whos method needs to be called. I do NOT however know for instance if I have a textfield, how do I get the value there?

My knowledge in handlers and delegates are close to 0, just by trial and error and googling I found this solution
