Fixed:

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v1
~LShift::
~LCtrl::
    ToolTip mouse movement restricted.
    ClipCursor(A_ThisHotkey)
    KeyWait, % SubStr(A_ThisHotkey, 2)
    ClipCursor()
    ToolTip
Return

ClipCursor(hk := "") {
    if !hk
        DllCall("ClipCursor", "Ptr", 0)
    else {
        CoordMode, Mouse
        MouseGetPos, X, Y
        VarSetCapacity(RECT, 16, 0)
        if InStr(hk, "Shift")
            NumPut(-0xFFFF, RECT, "Int"), NumPut(Y, RECT, 4), NumPut(0xFFFF, RECT, 8), NumPut(Y + 1, RECT, 12, "Int")
        else
            NumPut(X, RECT), NumPut(X + 1, RECT, 8), NumPut(A_ScreenHeight, RECT, 12, "Int")
        DllCall("ClipCursor", "Ptr", &RECT)
    }
}

Thank you so much, works perfectly.

It works so much better than the previous script, but I noticed that it doesn't lock the cursor instantly, and sometimes causes the mouse to be free for a few moments before locking it, even though I'm holding down the button already, can you make it to lock instantly? it's not a huge problem, but sometimes it causes a bit of a curve at the first part of the highlights or lines especially when I'm highlighting things a bit fast and mostly when my mouse has been moving in a vertical axis before locking on horizontal axis.
It's not that important but if you had the time to fix it, it'll be even better. Thanks.

Try this:

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v1
~LShift::
~LCtrl::
    BlockInput, MouseMove
    ToolTip mouse movement restricted.
    ClipCursor(A_ThisHotkey)
    BlockInput, MouseMoveOff
    KeyWait, % SubStr(A_ThisHotkey, 2)
    ClipCursor()
    ToolTip
Return

ClipCursor(hk := "") {
    if !hk
        DllCall("ClipCursor", "Ptr", 0)
    else {
        CoordMode, Mouse
        MouseGetPos, X, Y
        VarSetCapacity(RECT, 16, 0)
        if InStr(hk, "Shift")
            NumPut(-0xFFFF, RECT, "Int"), NumPut(Y, RECT, 4), NumPut(0xFFFF, RECT, 8), NumPut(Y + 1, RECT, 12, "Int")
        else
            NumPut(X, RECT), NumPut(X + 1, RECT, 8), NumPut(A_ScreenHeight, RECT, 12, "Int")
        DllCall("ClipCursor", "Ptr", &RECT)
    }
}

Yep, fixed, you're literally the AHK wizard. THANK YOU.

Glad to help!
