I want a hotkey to only work if Numlock is on

[l ryux]

This is what came to my mind, but it doesn't work:

Code: Select all

GetKeyState, state, Numlock, T ; if Numlock is on, pressing "a" makes an "x" and else pressing "a" makes a "c"

state := GetKeyState ("Numlock", "T")

if state = D {

	a:: x

}else{

	a:: c
}
Return

Code: Select all

; if Numlock is on, pressing "a" makes an "x" and else pressing "a" makes a "c"

a::
    If GetKeyState("Numlock", "T")
        Send, x
    Else
        Send, c
Return

looks good, I gonna test it

It is very incosistent when numlock is toggled, it would sometimes put out "x", but sometimes "x" and "c" at once.

Have you tested with Notepad or any text editor? For me, there is no inconsistency there.
What did you use for testing?

A bug that only occurs sometimes is often very difficult to find.

try this

Code: Select all

#If GetKeyState("NumLock","T")
$a::x
#If

#if !GetKeyState("NumLock","T")
$a::c
#If

try this

Code: Select all

#If GetKeyState("NumLock","T")
$a::x
#If

#if !GetKeyState("NumLock","T")
$a::c
#If

seems to work for me
