is there any wait to keep running a KeyWait all the time (during the script)
I'm doing this: if nobody press a specific key (example: f) after 20 seconds, then open notepad. If someone press "f" key, start again counting 20 second, waiting for a new "f" key pressed, and allways do the same.

I tried with this script, but it only works 1 time.



Thanks

Read about Goto and GoSub in the manual. They have big diffrences and to remain control flow and a good coding practice you should hardly ever use Goto unless its actually needed.

thanks i3egohan, im trying to brake the loop if nobody press "f" key after 20 seconds (after that notepad is open) and continue the loop (searching for "f" key after that someone press "f" key, I tried with this, but I can't:

You mean if someone presses 'f' it starts the loop again? And only opens notepad after 20 seconds?

Heres the above.



And heres one which opens notepad even if f has been pressed



If they dont suit your needs i still dont understand what you mean

Or...

maybe im not explaning my position well, I need:

If nobody press "f" during these 20 second -> run notepad and break the loop
If somebody press "f" (for example: on 15th second) start the count down again, (continue the loop)

[/code]

I'm trying to do this:

If nobody press a specific key (example:enter) after 20 seconds, press "enter" 1 time and continue with other keywait (keyWait, enter,D 10) if nobody press "enter" in these 10 seconds, press "enter" and continue with a last keywait (keyWait, enter,D 5)

But if someone press "enter" key before these first 20 seconds (ex: on the 5th second), then continue with the second keywait and after that with the last keywait
5 (first "enter" key pressed ) + 10 (2nd keywait) + 5 (3th keywait)

Thanks
