Question

By default Windows (XP) shows the underlined hotkeys only, when ALT is pressed. This can be changed in display-properties in the subdialog ‘Effects’ so, that the hotkeys are always underlined

How can it be changed programmatically? Which API-call or registry-setting can be used to change this setting?

I found the solution, how to query and to set:

BOOL b SystemParametersInfo(SPI_GETKEYBOARDCUES, 0, &b, 0); if (!b) {     b = TRUE;     SystemParametersInfo(SPI_SETKEYBOARDCUES, 0, &b, 0); }
