back with another basic question that google couldn't help me with. Is there anything like a switch/case syntax (?) in AHK?

I think there was in AutoIt... I currently use a load of "If"s but it's pretty ugly.

Second question: What do I do if I need two conditions to apply in one "if"? I need something like:

if (a > 2 and b < 5)
xxx

Thanks, again.

you know that you are aloud to try code BEFORE asking if it will work .

and no, no case-break in AHK.

Not yet, but you could use the ternary operator:


Your syntax is correct - you could add brackets if you want multiple lines:

I DID try that. I also looked at some existing scripts but couldn't find anything. Why is my script not working?

I had tried if (a > 3 and b = blue)

so I used a string rather than a number. Is that not allowed? I tried putting it in parenthesis but that doesn't seem to work either.

Thank you for your patience, I promise I am trying but I'm doing everything wrong I possibly could...



This exact thing is in the documentation so what am I doing wrong?

this is what I'm playing around with:

if ()
...
the () make it an expression.
strings inside expressions need to be quoted.

It's telling me it's not red. I'm going crazy.

lol

so when you define it you need to leave the parenthesis out and in the if bracket you need to have it in. You're not making my life easy here

so this works:

Or this would have worked

answer4u beat me to it
