Spoiler

Hallo,
try:

Code: Select all

$^a::
Send, {a Up}
Hotkey, *a, Return, On
KeyWait, Ctrl
IF GetKeyState("a","P")
{
	KeyWait, a
	Send, {F2}
}
Else
	Send, ^a
Hotkey, *a, Return, Off
Return:
Return

Still works as Ctrl+A, but gives other output:

Code: Select all

A2  01D	 	d	12.91	LControl       	
41  01E	h	d	0.00	a              	
A2  01D	i	u	0.00	LControl       	
41  01E	i	u	0.00	a              	
A2  01D	i	d	0.03	LControl       	
A2  01D	 	u	0.05	LControl       	
41  01E	s	u	0.00	a              	
A2  01D	i	d	0.01	LControl       	
41  01E	i	d	0.00	a              	
41  01E	i	u	0.00	a              	
A2  01D	i	u	0.02	LControl   

Have any idea?

How to use elapsed time to catch this sequence of "a"? It's every time = 0

[Rohwedder]

Here with above script,
{CTRL down}{a down}{CTRL up}{a up}
VK SC Type Up/Dn Elapsed Key Window
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A2 01D d 8.89 LControl Unbenannt - Editor
41 01E h d 0.28 a
A2 01D i u 0.00 LControl
41 01E i u 0.00 a
A2 01D i d 0.02 LControl
A2 01D u 0.26 LControl
41 01E h d 0.23 a
41 01E h d 0.05 a
41 01E h d 0.03 a
41 01E h d 0.03 a
41 01E s u 0.03 a
71 03C i d 0.02 F2
71 03C i u 0.00 F2
Press [F5] to refresh.

41 01E i u 0.00 a
A2 01D i u 0.03 LControl
Press [F5] to refresh.

Here is another method:

Code: Select all

$^a::
Hotkey, *a, Return, On
KeyWait, a
Hotkey, *a, Return, Off
KeyWait, Ctrl
Send,% (TCtrl < TA)?"{F2}":"^a"
Return:
Return
~*Ctrl Up::TCtrl := A_TickCount
~*a Up::TA := A_TickCount

[Sandro_spb]

Cant undrstand why, but not working. Here is history:

A2 01D d 9.13 LControl
41 01E h d 0.00 a
A2 01D h u 0.05 LControl
41 01E h u 0.00 a
A2 01D i d 0.00 LControl
41 01E i d 0.00 a
41 01E i u 0.00 a
A2 01D i u 0.01 LControl

[Sandro_spb]

Great! Now it works. Just added "=" in Send. Thank you very much!

Code: Select all

$^a::
Hotkey, *a, Return, On
KeyWait, a
Hotkey, *a, Return, Off
KeyWait, Ctrl
Send,% (TCtrl <= TA)?"{F2}":"^a"
Return:
Return
~*Ctrl Up::TCtrl := A_TickCount
~*a Up::TA := A_TickCount

One more questuon: when ctrl+A is pressed how to get delay between ctrl down and A down?

[Rohwedder]

I do not understand the question.
1. which ctrl+A ? The one that triggers the hotkey or the one that sends the script?
2. should the size of the delay be captured for evaluation or should the delay be increased?

[Sandro_spb]

1. That triggers the hotkey or when pressing Ctrl+A
2. It should be captured

Now I try to get rid of delay when pressing Ctrl+A.

Before, when pressed Ctrl+A - selecting starts before releasing the keys, now after keys are Up. If can fix this - that will be brilliant!

[Rohwedder]

Before, it didn't matter if Ctrl or A were released first.
Now it does matter, i.e. Autohotkey must wait for the keys to be released.
For decision making, releasing only one of the keys is enough, optimize the script accordingly!

[Sandro_spb]

Great idea! I'll try it! Thank you very much!
