Not sure if this is what your looking for

Code: Select all

f2::
Loop
{
    Send, _
    Sleep 3 ;Remove sleep if needed.
}
return

f3::Pause               ; pauses the loop // press again to resume
Apologies if I'm miles off the mark.

It looks like a square....
Diffrent applications accept diffrent unicode charecters. For example, It will look like a line in Google Chrome, and MS Words. It will look like a square in Notepad.
I'm not aware of how a person can make their own Unicode character. The Unicode Consortium is the one that creates the Unicode standards.

65018 is not a long character. The longest I have had to deal with was 10764.
Try this in Word:

Code: Select all

q::Send,% Chr(10764)
But there are certainly much longer characters.

Not that I know of, but just create your own font:

I put a ruler on the screen and measured the pixels. W is wider.

Thanks for your effort, but is there any way to extend this character?

Yes but not with ahk. That would be a windows setting.

What is this for? There could be a million ways to do what you want but all we know is what you think you need.

If it was said already, my bad. I looked but I couldn't see one word about what it is for other than
I'm looking for something like this_______________ how can I make it last so long but as a single character ?
If you tells us what it's for / how you want to use it, you might find that you don't need what you think you need.

Ok, so it sounds like you want to send that char in some way to something or someone using something. Maybe.
Getting closer.

u know u couldve saved ppl a lot of time, if u had just said it was for a game with specific limitations to begin with.......

a list of useless suggestions ppl have wasted their time coming up with for you:
  • creating ur own font(cant distribute it to other ppl; games use their own; clients use their own)
  • looking up obscure specialized unicode characters(unlikely to be part of the game's font -> render as square)
  • custom rendering whatever it is u needed show(can technically be done for YOU; cant be propagated to other clients)
  • sending multiple characters

how are u gonna "not tamper with anything else"? wasn't the entire point of this thread that u wanted to change some dumb game's font, since ure limited in how many characters ure allowed to enter in the playerName box? by definition, ud have to tamper with it.

there are probably many software kits out there for editing/making fonts, use google. dont see how any of that is ahk related

just like any (unicode) character, if your font doesn't support it you will only get a box like “☐”

yea i understood what u wanted to do well enough the first time - fill a nameplate tag with as much crap as possible to obscure as much screen space as possible in said dumb game...
but i dont believe uve understood any of the information already shared and what types of hurdles ud have to overcome based on the approach uve settled for
