WM_HOTKEY never passes dlgproc

[h4ever]

I try to register ctrl+click key and ctrl+numkeys.

void OnWM_Create(HWND window, CREATESTRUCT * cs)
{
  int i;

  RegisterHotKey(window,1, MOD_CONTROL | MOD_NOREPEAT, VK_LBUTTON );
  for ( i = 48; i<58; i++ ) 
    RegisterHotKey(window,i, MOD_CONTROL | MOD_NOREPEAT, i );

...
}

LRESULT CALLBACK MapWndProc(HWND window, UINT msg, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{
  LRESULT ret = 0;
  int i;

  switch (msg)
  {
  case WM_CREATE:
    ret = 0;
    OnWM_Create(window, (CREATESTRUCT*)lParam);
    break;

  case WM_HOTKEY:
    data.ctrlPressed = true;
    data.initiatedCount++;
		break;

	// New feature: map selection
  case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:
  ...

it never passes throuth the case WM_CREATE: ... but I can pass case WM_LBUTTONDOWN:.

How to solve this?

WM_INITDIALOG https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms645428(v=vs.85).aspx

Thank you, but the message WM_INITDIALOG is never processed. I can run the function from
case WM_CREATE:
...
I believe that is it not important in which part of the code I run the function, but it must be after the window has been created, and it was.

I have found that

bool res;
  res = RegisterHotKey(window,1, MOD_CONTROL | MOD_NOREPEAT, VK_LBUTTON );
DWORD dw = GetLastError(); 

result is false, getlasterror returns error code 1008

ERROR_NO_TOKEN

1008 (0x3F0)

An attempt was made to reference a token that does not exist

Isn't this a dialog procedure?

If you are using Visual Studio, Menu => Tools => Error Lookup

winerror.h

//
// MessageId: ERROR_NO_TOKEN
//
// MessageText:
//
// An attempt was made to reference a token that does not exist.
//
#define ERROR_NO_TOKEN                   1008L 

I've absolutely no idea what that particular error means in this context.

My mistake, the code is

ERROR_INVALID_FLAGS

1004 (0x3EC)

Invalid flags.
