I have problems with an AutoHotKey script. When I press F1, the left mouse button is held but A is also pressed. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
#MaxThreadsPerHotkey, 2
Toggle := 0
Toggle2 := 0
F1::
Toggle := !Toggle
If (Toggle){
Click, Down
} else {
Click, Up
}
F2::
Toggle2 := !Toggle2
If (Toggle2){
send {a down}
} else {
send {a up}
}
You need to tell autohotkey that you are done writing the code that should be executed when a hotkey is pressed by putting a Return after the last part you want to execute.
From the docs:
Returns from a subroutine to which execution had previously jumped via
function-call, Gosub, Hotkey activation, GroupActivate, or other
means.
So for your script:
#MaxThreadsPerHotkey, 2
Toggle := 0
Toggle2 := 0
F1::
Toggle := !Toggle
If (Toggle){
Click, Down
} else {
Click, Up
}
return
F2::
Toggle2 := !Toggle2
If (Toggle2){
send {a down}
} else {
send {a up}
}
return
folks,
I want to create a layer based keyboard using AutoHotkey. Basicly, I want to achieve what shift already does: modify each key when a modifier is used.
I want to improve regular shift in the following:
press modifier once: only change layer for next character
hold modifier: change layer as long as modifier is down
press modifier twice: enter layer mode, like capslock. (end by another press)
Modifiers: LAlt, RAlt, LControl, RControl (CapsLock, Shift)
How cas I accomplish this?
what I found so far on stackoverflow:
This code allows for shift to be pressed and released for the next character
$*LShift::
SendInput, {LShift Down} ; press shift
Input, Key, L1 M V ; wait for input character
If GetKeyState("LShift", "P") ; if shift still pressed, wait for release
KeyWait, LShift
SendInput, {LShift Up} ; send input with shift down, the shift up
Return
this code turns a double shift press into CapsLock
LShift::
KeyWait, CapsLock ; wait to be released
KeyWait, CapsLock, D T0.2 ; and pressed again within 0.2 seconds
if ErrorLevel
return
else if (A_PriorKey = "CapsLock")
SetCapsLockState, % GetKeyState("CapsLock","T") ? "Off" : "On"
return
#If, GetKeyState("CapsLock", "P") ; hotkeys go below
a::b
#If
But I am not experienced enough with AHK to bring this together. My goal is to have something like
Modifier::
; code that makes the modifier behave like expected: single press, hold, double press
Return
#If, GetKeyState("Modifier", "P") ; List of key remaps in specific layer
#If
I hope this is specific enough and that you can help me out here.
thanks!
Assign the corresponding Booleam values (true or false) to the variables "Double_LAlt" and "Double_LAlt_holding" in order to create context-sensitive hotkeys depended on their values:
LAlt::
ToolTip,,,, 3
ToolTip,,,, 4
Double_LAlt := false
; Press twice or press twice and hold LAlt within 0,2 seconds
If (A_PriorHotKey = "~LAlt Up" AND A_TimeSincePriorHotkey < 200)
{
Sleep, 200
If GetKeyState("LAlt","P")
{
ToolTip,,,, 4
ToolTip, Double_LAlt_holding,,, 2
Double_LAlt_holding := true
}
else
{
ToolTip,,,, 4
ToolTip, Double_LAlt,,, 3
Double_LAlt := true
}
}
If !((Double_LAlt_holding) || (Double_LAlt)) ; "!" means "NOT" and "||" means "OR"
ToolTip, LAlt_holding,,, 1
return
~LAlt Up::
ToolTip,,,, 1
ToolTip,,,, 2
Double_LAlt_holding := false
Sleep, 100
If (A_TimeIdlePhysical > 100)
Tooltip, PriorHotKey = LAlt Up,,, 4
SetTimer, RemoveTooltip, 1000
return
#If (Double_LAlt_holding) ; If this variable has the value "true"
<!a:: MsgBox, a while Double_LAlt_holding ; "<!" means "LAlt"
<!1:: MsgBox, 1 while Double_LAlt_holding
#If (Double_LAlt)
a:: MsgBox, a after Double_LAlt
1:: MsgBox, 1 after Double_LAlt
; Press a key within 2 seconds after releasing LAlt:
#If (A_PriorHotKey = "~LAlt Up" AND A_TimeSincePriorHotkey < 2000)
a:: MsgBox, a after LAlt Up
1:: MsgBox, 1 after LAlt Up
#If GetKeyState("LAlt","P")
a:: MsgBox, a while LAlt_holding
1:: MsgBox, 1 while LAlt_holding
#If
RemoveTooltip:
If (A_TimeSincePriorHotkey > 2000) ; 2 seconds
ToolTip,,,, 4

trying to make a toggle-able loop, seems to be not sending e at all, help please?
myvar := false
k::
myvar := true ? false : true
return
while (myvar)
{
Send, e
Sleep 100
}
Here is my suggestion:
k::SetTimer, SendLetterE, % (Toggle:=!Toggle) ? 100 : "Off"
SendLetterE() {
Send, e
}
You can assign another key to pause / resume. In this case k will toggle and F12 will run indefinitely (so just use k to toggle).
k::
Hotkey, F12, toggle
return
F12::
while(true)
{
Send, e
Sleep 100
}
Could also try Loop instead of while(true)
k::
pause, toggle
F12::
Loop,
{
Send e
Sleep, 100
}
return
referenced from AutoHotkey forum.
So I am making my script
toggl:=false
while(1){
if(toggl){
Send,E
}
Sleep, 150
}
!r::
toggl:=!toggl
return
!y::ExitApp,101
Problem is that while the loop is running, I can not cancel it because it blocks !y, so I had to restart computer. So any help with this would be nice.
Set #MaxThreads 2 to allow each hotkey to run twice, OR:
Use SetTimer to allow the hotkey to end and continue your loop in a "Pseudo-Thread".
toggle := 0
F12::
toggle := !toggle
if (toggle){
SetTimer, DoLoop, -100
}
return
DoLoop:
Loop {
if (!toggle){
break
}
; [Do your stuff here]
}
return
I am trying to detect Ctrl+V. Then, make Xbutton1act as Enter for a few seconds, but I can't get it working.
Transform, CtrlV, Chr, 3
Input, OutputVar, L1 M
XButton1::
if OutputVar = CtrlV
{
SetTimer, SendEnter, 0
Sleep, 2000
SetTimer, SendEnter, Off
}
else
{
Send ^t
}
Return
SendEnter:
Send {Enter}
Return
~^v::lastPaste := A_TickCount ;stores counter when ctrl+v is pressed
Xbutton1::
If A_TickCount - lastPaste < 2000 ;checks if 2 seconds gone after ctrl+v was clicked
{
Send, {Enter} ;sends enter
Return
}
else
{
Send, ^t ;sends ctrl+t
Return
}
