Why is my hotkeys/hotstrings beeing "blocked"

[burton666]

I have made this script but have some problems using it.

Code: Select all

#include Hotstring.ahk 
#include FileTail.ahk
#SingleInstance, force
#Persistent
#NoEnv
SetBatchLines, -1
SendMode, Input
SetKeyDelay, -1

Space::
sendInput ^g{enter 2}
return

Tab:: 
sendinput ^s{enter}
return

; download it from here https://github.com/menixator/ahk-repo/blob/master/Hotstring/Hotstring.ahk


Hotstring("([A-O]{2})(\d)(\d)([012])\s","expand2",3)

Hotstring("(MAX|FRASSE)(\d)(\d)\s","expand1",3)

Hotstring("(\b[A-O])(\d)(\d)([012])\s","expand3",3)

Hotstring("(FRASSE)(\d)(\d)([12])\s","expand4",3)

Hotstring("(\b\d{2,3})\s","expand5",3)

return

The Dynamic hotstring-part seems to block my other hotkeys. And if I put my regular hotkeys on top the dynamic hotstrings stop wotking.

The strange part is that if I put a hotkey using space under the dynamic hotstrings it does not work, but if I make the hotkey with ^Space:: it works.

Your space & tab hotkeys need to be BELOW your hotstrings function calls, because of your current placement the hotstrings functions are never executed and therefore the hotstrings are not setup.
See https://autohotkey.com/docs/Scripts.htm#auto for reference.

I tried that to, but If I place them under the dynamic hotstrings then the hotkeys does not work correctly. For example nothing happens when I trie to use "Space::" but if I use "^Space::" it works. Same with the other keys, "F4::" does not work but "^F4::" works
