AutoHotkey Community

I am a CG artist/photographer for www.jgroupstudios.com I developed Tendon injury in both arms from excessive mouse/tablet usage. I needed to use a no hands mouse with out spending a fortune, so I attached a Gyration Go (Wiimote Like Mouse) to my head and can easily move the mouse using slight head moments & Mouse click using a foot switch.

The problem is I need to be able to freeze the cursor so I can double click and to re-adjust my head positioning with out cursor movement. The Gyration Go mouse has a trigger for this purpose but this button doesn't show in KeyHistory which makes it a MysteryKey.

So...
I need some script coding genius.
Description of what script I need:

Holding "Hotkey" allows mouse movment.
Release same "HotKey" = Cursor is frozen in place.
*Mouse buttons must work while cursor is frozen.

or

Name of the trigger key on the Gyration Go (Mystery Key name)

This is a critical step toward my wellness and career productivity, I will pay reward $25.00 US (Paypal only) to solution winner. Bonus $10.00 US (PayPal) If it works in video games. Yea I know its cheap, but it's the best I can do.

Thanks in advance,

Kyle Gruba

hotkey in the code is Left Control. change to whatever you want

Heresy I sent you a PM. $25.00 winner (no $10.00 bonus, Script didn't work in Crysis)

Also, I want to enable/disable script by double clicking same hotkey, or by pressing different hotkey.

n-l-i-d your right, next solution that shows up here, I will donate.

Is this what you mean?

Close, You guys are amazing. It disables right, but it really needs to be enabled again from a disabled state with doubleClick LCTRL or someOtherHotkey.

hello xellow.
it's not my power, it's AutoHotkey's
hence i'd love to see you donating to AutoHotkey instead as n-l-i-d suggested.

however here's the extended version.
it uses only one hotkey (Left Control). supports On/Off Toggle by double pressing.

This script works exactly like the simple version; double pressing isn't doing any thing for me. Right now I'm using:


To achieve the need but thats a different hotkey.
A working Double Press would be the best.
Thanks to the efforts!
Donating now.

i've missed just 'else' but it should have working even without it.
run below snippet first to test that you got it right
script was tested.




Fixed One

Double Press LCTRL still has no MouseMoveOff effect for me- I Tested on xp 32bit & Vista 64bit.
?May be I run the script wrong by pasting it into the main AutoHotKey Notepad script?
Still Using F12::BlockInput, MouseMoveOff
And have been Working Productively all day again thanks to your amazing help!!

if you've merged it with other scripts. that might be the reason.
running this script independently will clarify it

Ill Try that...
Also, Is there a way to get this to work over a remote desktop conection?

NeverMind!! It works in remote desktop as long as it is windowed not fullscreen.
Maybe VideoGames work the same
also
Im still having no luck with Double press feature.

try this and tell me what you got
