Variable is not set somehow Topic is solved

[tuangd]

I have this script to toggle the mouse wheel speed between the normal speed and the new speed. (I am testing the script with only the WheelUp for now.)

Code: Select all

NewWheelSpeed := 10
toggle := False
F18::toggle:=!toggle
WheelUp::
If (toggle)
	SendInput, {WheelUp, %NewWheelSpeed%}
Else
	SendInput, {WheelUp}
Return

And the only thing that is not working is the variable NewWheelSpeed
This is what shows in the Global Variables view in AHK windows

Code: Select all

NewWheelSpeed[0 of 0]:

I am not sure what I did wrong.
Any help or pointer would be much appreciated.
Thank you so much in advance.

My educated guess is that this code is part of a larger script, and NewWheelSpeed := 10 is not in the auto-execute section.

FAQ: Why do some lines in my script never execute?

This is a non-issue with AutoHotkey v2, because even if you explicitly end the "auto-execute section" (which is not necessary with v2), #Warn Unreachable is enabled by default. (Of course, you can enable that in v1.1.33+ as well, to avoid running into this issue again.)

Yes! Thank you so much. You are correct. I moved the variable assign lines on top of everything and it's now working.
Cheers!!!
