Press a button if another has been pressed x time Topic is solved

[Du001]

Yesterday the middle button of my mouse was damaged, so I decided to create a script in which if I press for x time the "back" button (Xbutton1) the central button (MButton) gets activated. This is the code I have, the problem is that both keys are activated after holding down the "back" button. I only want the Mbutton gets activated.

Code: Select all

Loop {
if (GetKeyState("XButton1"))
{
while getkeystate("XButton1")
{
count++
sleep 50
}
if count>5
	Send, {MButton}
count=0
}
}
return

Can you guys help me?

I'm new to this.

Code: Select all

delay := 200 ;200ms
return

xbutton1::
start := a_tickcount + delay
while (GetKeyState("xbutton1","P")) {
	if (a_tickcount > start) {
		Send, {MButton}
		break
	}
}
return

Hopefully that helps you with your mouse problem =P

Thanks for answering Spawnova, but I need to keep the functionality of the Xbutton1 if it doesn't reach pressed the desired time. Sorry, I Didn't explained that.

Ah I see, just need to edit the script a little..

Code: Select all

delay := 200 ;200ms
return

xbutton1::
start := a_tickcount + delay
while (GetKeyState("xbutton1","P")) {
	if (a_tickcount > start) {
		start := 0 ;can re use this variable instead of making a new one
		Send, {MButton}
		break
	}
}
if (start > 0) ;if we held long enough start would still be a large value
	send {xbutton1}
return
