AutoHotkey Community

I am trying to get a hotkey to scroll down 3 clicks, but I seem not to be able to do it.

This is the code I tried:


Instead of performing the intended action, it prints out the words "send, MouseClick, Wheeldown."

I don't play with AHK enough to become real expert at it. So any help would be appreciated.

is a hotstring not a hotkey.

Mouseclick is a command, and Send is a command.
but if you put, send, mouseclick, then you are sending the /text/ mouseclick.

perhaps you menat


or


which should do about the same thing

also, heed the warning in the help file for mouseclick

Hi Enguneer,

I've got to get my terminology correct. What I wanted was a hotstring, and not a hotkey, that would scroll. I do a lot of production typing and it's just faster to not take my hands off the keyboard when the bottom of my text is at the bottom of the window. I like to have it higher up so I can see flagged spelling errors, which I try to get on the fly.

Of course, the hotstring I would use is much shorter and much more cryptic than the one I put in the sample script.

Owing to your generous help, here's what I came up with:


It did exactly what I wanted it to do.

Thanks for the hint.
