Hi.
would be nice to be able to hook a double click using something like


a few things to consider for this :
1. double click delay is a configurable system property which should probably be considered
2. what is someone hooks LButton(2) and also LButton(3) ?

its possible to achieve this using AHK's current capabilities but:
1. need to fetch the system double click delay myself
2. need to check subsequent clicks are over the same component/control

I like the idea, especially if you could build a sequence and finetune
the delay and time-out of each click in the sequence e.g:

Lbutton(2,50,200)::WheelDown(0,200)::

Would trigger if Leftbutton is pressed twice with a minimum delay of 50 between clicks and within a timeout of 200 between clicks AND if
this doubleclick is followed by a wheeldown click immediately ( 0 delay)
after the Lbutton doubleclick and not later than timeout 200

if a clickaction has 3 arguments, like:

Lbutton(2,50,200)::

The delay/timeout revers to the delay/timeout between 2 or more of the same
LButton clicks

If only 2 arguments, like :

WheelDown(0,200)::

The delay/timeout rever to the delay and timeout AFTER the previous LButton clicks, setting a timeframe of 0-200 within you must Wheeldown
in order to complete/trigger the whole sequence


system variables could by introduced to count the time within the clicks
have been produced.

For instance to create progressive scrolling:

Wheeldown(2,0,100)::
Loop, A_WheelDown
Click, WheelDown


Where 2 wheeldown action within a timeout of 100 are required to perform a number of wheeldown action as stored in A_WheelDown.

A_WheelDown would be calculated as followed:

if 2 wheeldown actions are performed in exacty 100,
A_Wheeldown=1.

if however they were performed in 50,
A_Wheeldown = 2

performed in 25:

A_Wheeldown = 4

Naturally, Wheeldowns are almost never exactly clicked by the user
in exactly 100, 50, 25, more likely 33, 69 etc, so A_Wheeldown must round this to nearest integer range, e.g. 33 = 25 = 4 * Wheeldown
