Help with Up and Down arrow keys Topic is solved

[Tim_H]

Hi,

I want to create shortcuts for decreasing font size in Microsoft OneNote.

Font size can be decreased manually by performing the following actions:
press "alt" + type "r" + type "te" + hit "down arrow" + hit "up arrow" + hit "enter"

So I tried to translate this to the following code:

Code: Select all

#ifWinActive ahk_exe OneNote.exe
^+>::Send, !rte {Down} {Up} {Enter}

...But it doesn't work. :d


The first part works: up until

Code: Select all

!rte

But the arrows and hitting enter don't...


In case you didn't notice: I'm a complete newbie to AutoHotKey and to coding in general.

Any help would be appreciated!

I don't have OneNote, so I can't test it, but one problem may be that you are sending spaces in between several of the keys. Should be like this so that you don't send spaces between them:

Code: Select all

^+>::Send, !rte{Down}{Up}{Enter}

Hell yeah! It works!!!!

Thank you so much, @boiler!!

I have been dreaming of creating this shortcut for years.
And now I got it!

You made my day...
