AutoHotkey Community

#If appears to be ignored in the case of AltTab replacements.
Try pressing Alt and Up. The hotkey triggers when it shouldn't.

It works fine in the case of a::b replacements. The more practical use of this, and how I discovered it, is making three or more keys for a AltTab by using GetKeyState in the #If.

Edit: I received a PM where the sender said the hotkey didn't trigger on their computer. I tried changing the hotkeys, changing the #If condition, compiling and running in XP compatibility mode. Still it gives me the AltTab behavior.

This is intended I think.

Could you explain what you mean?

I think because AltTab and ShiftAltTab should ignore #IfWinActive, otherwise they would not work as expected.
So what is the sense of a hotkey that does AltTab but does not work in all window, so if you select a wrong one it stops working.

I didn't say anything about IfWinActive. I think all #If.. commands should work for it, but I wouldn't argue IfWinActive and IfWinExist.

The case I was talking about is #If condition. For example:
#If GetKeyState("Some Third Key")
or
#If Disable_AltTab (Where this var would be set elsewhere in the script)

I would like to hear Lexikos's comments on if this is a bug or intended behavior.

This came up a couple years ago. It wasn't a bug then and still isn't. However, I think it's only mentioned on the #IfWinActive page - I'll add a note to the alt-tab section.
