prevent double click Topic is solved

[surfactant]

I need to map LAlt as LMB click like this:

Code: Select all

LAlt::

Click
Sleep 300

return

I insert the step of Sleep to prevent double click, but this wastes a lot of time.

Is it possible to make the script work this way? ---- When the key LAlt is pressed continuously fast in high frequency, a seious of highly frequent continous single clicks are produced.

Thank you!

Hallo,
try:

Code: Select all

LAlt::
Click
KeyWait, LAlt
Return

But 2 fast single clicks make a double click by definition.

Thank you! Is there no workaround?

It’s not an AHK issue. The only thing that determines how a series of clicks is viewed is the application, whether it’s Windows or a program running in Windows.

You are correct in what you said. I wonder whether it's possible for AHK to cheat Windows or programs. Thank you!

Only if you use AHK to inject code written in C++ or some other compiled language into those applications such that it would be running your code to handle a series of clicks with your interpretation instead of how it's currently handled. You're basically re-writing part of the application, and it's not really using AHK other than if you wanted to insert it almost unnecessarily into the process. But since you asked, that's how it would be possible.
