Hey,
I'm trying to send a variable like this:
Code: Select all
#Persistent
#NoEnv
SendMode Input
SetKeyDelay, 5
a::
variable := A_ThisHotkey
tooltip % variable
SendEvent {%variable%}
Return
^ESC::ExitApp
Return
But it doesn't work. Has anyone a idea why?
Thanks

Thank you mikeyww,
that works perfect!
One more question: How can i implement:
in this routine:
Code: Select all
SendEvent % on ? "%SubStr(variable, 2)" : ""
like that?

Use
expressions, because that is what
% indicates at the start of an AHK command parameter.
Code: Select all
on := True
$a::
$Up::
Send % on ? "{" SubStr(A_ThisHotkey, 2) "}" : ""
SoundBeep, 1500
Return
When forcing an expression in an AHK command, the
% is needed only once per parameter. The rest of the parameter is an expression.
Code: Select all
on := True
$a::
$Up::
expression1 := "{" SubStr(A_ThisHotkey, 2) "}"
expression2 := on ? expression1 : ""
Send % expression2
SoundBeep, 1500
Return
