Im a greenie on this and Im trying to a script that disable mouseinput (actually a touchpad) when you are typing.

I think the pseudocode will look something like this:

Code:

loop 
{
    If keyboard_interaction 
    {
    disable mouse
    }
    If No keyboard_interaction in 500ms
    {
    enable_mouse
    }
}

thx

There are probably nicer ways to do it but this is the first thing that came to mind.

Code:

loop,
{
Input, KeyVar, T0.5 L1 V
If ErrorLevel != TimeOut 
BlockInput, MouseMove
Else
BlockInput, MouseMoveOff
}

thx.. I found a way on my own as well:

Code:

loop {
Input, SingleKey,I V L1
BlockInput, MouseMove
SetTimer, MouseOn, 500 ; Set mouselock timeout. Eg. the time it takes to move your hand from the keyboard to touchpad
}

MouseOn:
    BlockInput, MouseMoveOff
    SetTimer, MouseOn, Off
Return
                    

I don't know which one is the better.
