Cancel XButton2 "unclick" Topic is solved

[lboulluuu]

I made a script such that "XButton2 & WheelUp" sends "Wheelup 4". However, when I use it and then let go of XButton2, it registers a button on XButton2 and (in my case) moves a page/folder forward.

Could you help me correct my script so as to "cancel" the "up" signal ?

I found this post on "XButton2 up" but it did not help : viewtopic.php?t=113147&p=504090

Here is my current script :

Code: Select all

~XButton2 & WheelUp::
{
	Send "{Wheelup 4}"
}

Thanks for your help

Welcome to this AutoHotkey forum!

Code: Select all

#Requires AutoHotkey v2.0
XButton1::XButton1
XButton1 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 4}'

Explained: Tilde

I tried your script, it still lead to the XButton action to be performed, even without the Tilde.
Is there something I'm doing wrong ?

I was testing with XButton1, but you can change it to XButton2.

Thanks for your answer, it does not work with the script you suggested

This is my script, and this is my AHK windows :

Code: Select all

XButton2::XButton2
XButton2 & WheelUp::  ; Scroll up.
	Send {Wheelup 4}
return

It worked here. It appears that you are running a script that differs from the script that you posted. A different script may yield different results. When you test a script from the forum, test it before you change it.

Hey, I still have the same problem

My script is still

Code: Select all

XButton2 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 4}'

and I still get the click.
Is there a way I can prove it to you, with a screenshot or something else? Because "send,{Blind}{XButton2 Up}" appears for other hotkeys and don't cause the same problem

You have changed your script. Is that the entire script? Other scripts are closed? What is your new key history? Which line looks wrong or omitted there?

Sorry I should have worked with the MWE first.

When I use only this
~XButton2 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 6}'
I get the unintended "next page" event.
This is the key history :

When I remove the "~", that is
~XButton2 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 6}'
I don't have the unintended "next page" event, but also when I just click XButton2 it doesn't go to next page anymore.

What details can I provide ? Thanks

In reviewing this thread, it appears that we achieved different results even with the same script. Thus, I do not have an answer. Others may have some better ideas here.

The first image you posted looks like it contains v1 syntax. This is the v2 forums. Which are you using?

[lboulluuu]

I'm sorry that this thread has been lasting for so long, a year now.
My MWE is this, in AHK v2 :

Code: Select all

~XButton2 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 6}'

If I remove the "~" for the script to be

Code: Select all

XButton2 & WheelUp::Send '{Wheelup 6}'

then clicking XButton2 doesn't go to next page anymore.

I deactivated my mouse software and still have the problem.

Can you reproduce that issue on your side? Can I provide more details to get some help?

Thanks a lot

See the documentation about custom combinations. The first script that I posted shows how to restore the button's native function when the button is released. We have now come full circle!

Hi Mike, I think it worked !

Thanks a lot for your patience, I had completely missed the importance of the "XButton2::XButton2" bit, and had an other "~XButton2 &" that was messing with your solution.

The true MWE always wins in the end ^^'

Thanks again
