I am trying to create a hotstring for triple-pressing "d" to insert the date. I want a single press to pass a "d", and a double press to pass a "dd".
I used the script from Help, but I cannot get input to be sent for single-pressing or double-pressing "d".
Code:
SetKeyDelay, -1
SendMode, Input
return
; Example #3: Detection of single, double, and triple-presses of a hotkey. This
; allows a hotkey to perform a different operation depending on how many times
; you press it:
d::
if d_presses > 0 ; SetTimer already started, so we log the keypress instead.
{
d_presses += 1
return
}
; Otherwise, this is the first press of a new series. Set count to 1 and start the timer:
d_presses = 1
SetTimer, KeyD, 400 ; Wait for more presses within a 200 millisecond window.
return
KeyD:
SetTimer, KeyD, off
if d_presses = 1 ; The key was pressed once.
{
Send, d
}
else if d_presses = 2 ; The key was pressed twice.
{
Send, dd
}
else if d_presses > 2
{
Send, _%A_YYYY%%A_MM%%A_DD%_
}
; Regardless of which action above was triggered, reset the count to prepare for the next series of presses:
d_presses = 0
return
It also seems to continue to log the key presses until there are three, even if I wait several seconds between presses...
I swapped out the "send" lines for "msgbox" and it worked fine then... I am confused! Please help!
