Ahk code using control to hold keys

[VitinhoKeys]

Hi, I need a code capable of holding the "q" key using the control. It's kind of complicated to explain, but I think you'll understand. When I press the "q" key, the control will be activated and it will only stop when I release the "q" key. I believe this is possible, because on a normal keyboard, after holding the control, you can't send anything, it kind of holds the keys.

Code: Select all

q::Ctrl

@mikeyww After I release the "q" key, it has to activate, understand? In that code you sent, the "q" doesn't work.
I need the control to hold while I press the "q", when I release the "q" must activate.

I do not understand. What the script does: 'When I press the "q" key, the control will be activated and it will only stop when I release the "q" key.'

@mikeyww It's something like this mechanic: c up::send wa. However, I want the control to hold the key, and when I release it, the key is activated

I am not following this. The instructions are vague to me. The original post says nothing about "c", "w", or "a". I don't know what key is meant, or what "activated" is.

@mikeyww Sorry, I'm using google translator, possibly strange words are coming out. Maybe this script I wanted is not possible to do :v

@VitinhoKeys Can you help me with something else?

[mikeyww]

That depends on the question.

@mikeyww is it possible to take the delay off the keys? I mean, make them respond faster?

[mikeyww]

You can use SendInput or change the SetKeyDelay. A remapping already uses a key delay of -1.

Hmm understand, now going to another topic, do you know how to make scripts to copy sentences?

[mikeyww]

I suggest creating a new post with the question. Include a specific example. In your post, define a sentence, too.

Ok
