Press "F10" to hold CTRL key, press "F10" again to release

[dhopkins802]

Hi all, subject pretty much says it all. I'm stumbling through other scripts people have written that do similar actions, but others seem to want to trigger a CTRL holder with one key, and then cancel it with another. Is it possible to press a hotkey "F10" to trigger a hold of the CTRL key, then press F10 again to release it?

I've started with this, but I think i'm way off -

Code: Select all

#MaxThreadsPerHotkey, 2
Toggle := 0

F10::
Toggle := !Toggle
If (Toggle){
   {Ctrl Down}
} else {
   {Ctrl Up}
}

Return

Hallo,
try:

Code: Select all

F10::Send, {Ctrl Down}
*F10::Send, {Ctrl Up}

1. without Send it could never work.
2. when control is down the hotkey F10:: cannot trigger.

That worked, thank you!
