|
|
Hello!
Sorry, if my english is bad. I wrote this script:
| Code: | Loop 999
{
Random, rand1, 6534, 8734
Send {F4 down} ; Press down the up-arrow key.
Sleep rand1 ; Keep it down for one second.
Send {F4 up} ; Release the up-arrow key
Random, rand2, 3465, 8945
Sleep rand2
Random, rand3, 3243, 5342
Send {F7 down} ; Press down the up-arrow key.
Sleep rand3 ; Keep it down for one second.
Send {F7 up} ; Release the up-arrow key
Random, rand4, 120243, 130342
Sleep rand4
} |
I think it's simply and I hopa I don't have to write what it have to do. I was reading documentation, but it's still not working. Any idea?
Thank you in advance!  |

Sleep expects a value, not just a "variable name". You have to use %%: | Code: | | Sleep %rand1% ; Keep it down for one second. |

| Btw: The comment "Keep it down for one second." is wrong. The key is held down for about 6,5 to 8,7 secons, not one second. |

Thank you
I know that it's not for one second - I've got this part of code from this page
But I still have problem. This part:
| Code: | Send {F4 down} ; Press down the up-arrow key.
Sleep %rand1% ; Keep it down for some second.
Send {F4 up} ; Release the up-arrow key |
Isn't working right. It's only clicking F$ key one time. What's wrong with this? It's code, to generate a rand1:
| Code: | | Random, rand1, 6534, 8734 |

Sleep %rand4%

:
Did you really wait the whole 120 to 130 seconds if the F4-key was pressed a second time? |

Yes, I need program to do:
click F4 for some seconds (random time, 6-8 sec)
wait some seconds
click F7 for some seconds (also random, 3-5 sec)
then wait about 120 seconds
ang do it again |

| The script should do what you expect. How do you know if F4 key was pressed several times? Did you look into the key history of your running script? |

It doesnt write letters but does click F-keys.
Please look in the key history of your script to see what happened. |

I found a bug. In documentation is:
| Quote: | When a key is held down via the method above, it does not begin auto-repeating like it would if you were physically holding it down (this is because auto-repeat is a driver/hardware feature). However, a Loop can be used to simulate auto-repeat. The following example sends 20 tab keystrokes:
Loop 20
{
Send {Tab down} ; Auto-repeat consists of consecutive down-events (with no up-events).
Sleep 30 ; The number of milliseconds between keystrokes (or use SetKeyDelay).
}
Send {Tab up} ; Release the key. |
Thank You for your help, and have a nice day  |

| Ohh, I'm back with a other question. Function Random is generating a new random number always when it's next time of a loop working? So it will generate other number for all 999 times of a loop? |
