Stop shift including itself in remapping? Topic is solved

[ahkonfused]

I want to use Shift as a modifier but it is transferring itself to the final result.

For example +Numpad1::8 would give * instead of 8.
How do I prevent this?

Thats's what a remapping does in AHK v1 - it doesn't release modifiers.
But a simple send will (usually):

Code: Select all

+1::Send 8   ; "normal" 1, shifted

But especially the Numpad and the Shift modifier is a tricky combination (because Windows lets Shift reverse the Numlock state) - wouldn't recommend, it just causes problems. Better use other modifiers with Numpad...
