That "0 & 1" script works but it disables the 0 key. The code I gave was an abstraction, but the goal was to remap a non-modifier key to a modifier. To be specific, I wanted to map CapsLock + S to Shift . But yes, I've realized since then that using the native modifiers is simpler to code and simpl...

This is how I currently understand it: ^+b::Send "a" Releases Ctrl and Shift and produces A After sending, if Ctrl and Shift are physically down, pushes Ctrl and Shift back down ^+c::Send "{Ctrl Up}a" Releases Ctrl and Shift and produces A After sending, if Ctrl and Shift are physically down, pushes...

This is some really funky behavior.

NovaChromatic

I see, but why isn't q just being spammed then when its logical state is 1?

NovaChromatic

Wait, really? I also initially tested it with keyboard keys but didn't see the issue. What's your script using keyboard keys?

When you add a custom combination hotkey (e.g., RButton & 1 ), AHK handles the prefix key differently than it otherwise would. Would also note that some mouse devices cannot detect the release of certain mouse buttons when other mouse buttons are being held. Okay, I think this is probably it. This ...

@mikeyww But again, then why does

Code: Select all

#HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P')
1::
LButton & 2::
LButton Up::
{
    ToolTip(thisHotkey)
}
#HotIf

not make LButton get stuck when Standard Modifier+RButton+LButton is pressed?

(Sorry for repeating myself if you already addressed this.)

NovaChromatic

But if that were the case, then why does this code

Code: Select all

#HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P')
1::
LButton & 2::
LButton Up::
{
    ToolTip(thisHotkey)
}
#HotIf

not make LButton get stuck when Standard Modifier+RButton+LButton is pressed?

Press & hold Shift , press & hold RButton , and press LButton , then moving the mouse You used the term "stuck" and your solution was to press LButton again, not release it. This heavily implied you were letting go of LButton . Sorry, I should have included "press & release LButton ," so that shoul...

Hello, yes, that is like the solution I mentioned: #HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P') LButton & 2:: LButton Up:: { ToolTip(thisHotkey) } *LButton Up:: return ; <---- #HotIf RButton & 1:: AltTab ; This isn't under #HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P') ; because AltTab doesn't allow that. The difference ...

niCode Weird, I tested it on two different mice on two different computers and my LButton got stuck for both. It's easy to see the effect in a text editor because when LButton is down, a selection is made. Are you sure you're pressing a combination like: Press & hold Shift , press & hold RButton , ...

Each hotkey in the following code works as I expect: #HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P') LButton & 2:: LButton Up:: { ToolTip(thisHotkey) } #HotIf RButton & 1:: AltTab ; This isn't under #HotIf GetKeyState('RButton', 'P') ; because AltTab doesn't allow that. But whenever I hold any standard modifier ...

Pressing 234 here works as expected and triggers the 2 - 34 ( 3 & 4 ) hotkey, displaying the 2 - 34 tooltip: Hotkey('2 & 4', (thisHotkey) => ToolTip('24')) HotIf((thisHotkey) => GetKeyState('2', 'P')) Hotkey('3 & 4', (thisHotkey) => ToolTip('2 - 34')) But If I define the the 2 - 34 hotkey before the...

So back in August last year, I was driving myself insane for a week trying to fix a bug. I planned on asking for help here, even drafted a long-ass explanation with a crap-ton of comments, but never got around to posting it. Jump to now where I'm revisiting the code and it's actually working – no mo...

NovaChromatic

In v2.0.4 and up, if you make an AltTab hotkey, and you make it a combination of two keys where the suffix key is a mouse button. It works as expected. But if you make the prefix key its own hotkey that fires on release, then that hotkey will fire along with the AltTab hotkey when the prefix key is ...

I emailed the admins on June 2 asking if I could have my username changed, but I never got a reply.

I see though that people have been changing their usernames via this topic. @joedf could you please change my username to NovaChromatic?

NovaChromatic

But it's still weird because in the v1 documentation, Hotkey, If, % FunctionObject also says it needs a non-zero number, but #If "some string" works fine.

NovaChromatic

@Helgef I wrote #HotIf 'some string' for simplicity. #HotIf fn() is also always false if fn returns a string.

However, you are probably right that #HotIf needing a non-zero number to evaluate to true is the intended functionality because that is what is stated in the HotIf documentation.

NovaChromatic

In v2, pressing a does nothing.

Code: Select all

#HotIf 'some string'
a:: MsgBox()

In v1, pressing a creates a MsgBox.

Code: Select all

#If "some string"
a:: MsgBox

This is not how the normal if statement works.

Here, a creates a MsgBox.

Code: Select all

a:: {
    if 'some string' {
        MsgBox()
    }
}
