Do you need to lock the entire keyboard, or just the keys for your app/game?

afaik control X's "disable all keys" only affects the key events from the control X object's own conditions.
Why won't you disable all key press events by adding your condition to those events?

You can do it with the registry object Disable keyboard or use an application called MapKeyboard.

I just need to lock the spacebar.

[Stephen]

An easy way to do this would be to add a flag or varible condition to your "Upon pressing spacebar" event. Then switch the flag or change the variable when you want to lock the spacebar. If you need an example, let me know.
