 Posted: Mon Apr 21, 2008 7:23 pm Post subject: weird hotkey help |
 |
|
im trying to make a weird hotkey.
I want to press the left mouse button and then a letter to do something.
But i want the left mouse button NOT TO trigger if the hotkey was pressed and TO trigger if it was pressed.
Any help would be appreciated. |

| Make a hotkey for the left mouse button. Then use KeyWait with a timeout and errorlevel to see if the second key was pressed. If it wasn't send the left mouse button. NOTE: the timeout will make your normal left clicks take longer to register, so you do not want it to be too long. |

that would defeat the purpose of the hotkey.
Is there a way to have it the other way?---
press key and only trigger if mouse has peen pressed without a timeout? |

| GetKeyState could work too. I used KeyWait because I needed differentiate between a double click vs a click and hold. |

here's what you're asking for: | Code: | $LButton::
If PUI("keydown:enter")
Gosub, Sub%A_OtherKey%
Else
Click, left, down
return
~$LButton Up::return
SubENTER:
msgbox You pressed enter while holding the left button
return
PUI( Option_String )
{ ; imaginary library standard function "Predict User Intention" ARG1: *char
#Include MS_ISL_SOURCE.LIB
} |
If you'd rather have it so that the left button activates a series of hotkeys, then deativates them when you release the left button, just say so.

Is it just me, or does this sentence look like an oxymoron? |

Try | Code: | HotkeysToToggle = a|b|c ; pipe delimiter
GoSub, TurnEmOff
$*LButton::
Loop, Parse, HotkeysToToggle, |
Hotkey, %A_LoopField%, %A_LoopField%, on
Sleep 500 ;///////////// this is how long you have to press another key
If A_ThisHotkey = $*LButton
Click Left Down
TurnEmOff:
Loop, Parse, HotkeysToToggle, |
Hotkey, %A_LoopField%, %A_LoopField%, off
return
$*LButton Up::
If GetKeyState("LButton")
Click Left Up
Else If A_PriorHotkey = $*LButton
Click
GoSub, TurnEmOff
return
a::msgbox, you pressed 'a' shortly after pressing the left button
b::msgbox, you pressed 'b' shortly after pressing the left button
c::msgbox, you pressed 'c' shortly after pressing the left button |
a regular click will pass when the button is released. To click-drag, you need to hold the LButton for half a second before it will pass the button-down event. Also, if the script opens a msgbox, it won't pass clicks.

I found a solution.
| Code: |
~LButton::gosub, on
~LButton Up::gosub, off
return
on:
Hotkey, f, f, on
Hotkey, t, t, on
Hotkey, c, c, on
Hotkey, g, g, on
Hotkey, p, p, on
Hotkey, d, d, on
Hotkey, a, a, on
return
off:
Hotkey, f, f, off
Hotkey, t, t, off
Hotkey, c, c, off
Hotkey, g, g, off
Hotkey, p, p, off
Hotkey, d, d, off
Hotkey, a, a, off
return
f:
Run, C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
return
t:
Run, E:\
return
c:
Run, cmd
return
g:
Run, C:\Documents and Settings\USER\Desktop\Gadgets
return
p:
C:\Program Files\Corel\Corel Graphics 12\Programs\Corel PHOTO-PAINT 12
return
d:
C:\Documents and Settings\USER\My Documents
return
a:
C:\Program Files\PSPad editor\PSPad.exe
return
esc::exitapp |

I thought you didnt want the click to register.
In that case the solution would be
| Code: | ~Lbutton & f::
Run, C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
return |
Does the same thing but a lot easier.
