click and drag one pixel per keystroke from variable point - autohotkey

I want to create a set of mouse movements assigned to the four arrow keys where a keystroke will click and drag one pixel left, right, up, or down. The starting point will be variable. I have no idea how to accomplish this. I gave it a sort of good faith try before asking, but I really need to ask somebody to show me how to do it.
Thanks,
Ellen

Ellen, here we go:
#Persistent
^NumPadUp::
Send, {LButton Down}
MouseMove, 0, -1, 1, R ;Move the mouse one pixel Up
Send, {LButton Up}
Return
^NumPadDown::
Send, {LButton Down}
MouseMove, 0, 1, 1, R ;Move the mouse one pixel Down
Send, {LButton Up}
Return
^NumPadRight::
Send, {LButton Down}
MouseMove, 1, 0, 1, R ;Move the mouse one pixel to the right
Send, {LButton Up}
Return
^NumPadLeft::
Send, {LButton Down}
MouseMove, -1, 0, 1, R ;Move the mouse one pixel to the left
Send, {LButton Up}
Return

Autohotkey, problems redefining keypress down state of mousekey

I am using the LButton (mouse left) in a keybind as a prefix key. I got it to work, problem is I now need to redefine the LButton as whatever it was in it's natural state...in Autohotkey's terms.
I read this: https://www.autohotkey.com/docs/commands/GetKeyState.htm.
And cameup with the following code, but it's not working at all the way I thought it would. Simply put, you can use $LButton::Send {Click Left} to emulate the basic mouse click. The problem is when you hold the button/key down, nothing happens. I thought the code to emulate, or define the 'pressed down' behaviour would be readily available, but what I've found isn't working.
$LButton::
if (GetKeyState("LButton", "P"))
Send, {Click Left Down} ;tried variants with {Click Left} etc alrdy
else
Send, {Click Left Up}
return
For person in comments:
LButton & ~RButton::
Send, 1{Click Right}{Click Left}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
return
$LButton:: ;no idea what this shud be
SendInput {Click Left}
;Send, {Click Left Down}
;KeyWait, LButton
;Send, {Click Left Up}
return
RButton::
Send, 1{Click Right}{Click Left}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
return
Not sure if I understood this correctly, but you want holding LButton, then clicking the RButton to run this code:
Send, 1{Click Right}{Click Left}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
And just clicking RButton should run that code as well?
And if LButton is just pressed normally (not in combination with RButton) it should function as normal?
Well this would be it:
~LButton & RButton::
RButton::
Send, 1{Click Right}{Click Left}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep, 130
Send, 1
return
Basically just making use of the ~ modifier.
Although I can't speak for Send, 1{Click Right}{Click Left}{Click Right}{MButton}.
I don't know what it's supposed to do, but maybe/hopefully it's doing the right thing.
Pressing w or something that you define should do the job
w::
Send, {Click down}
Send, {Blind}1{Click Right}{Click}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
return
Anyone looking for something similar could try in this direction
#SingleInstance force
#warn
r::Reload
x::ExitApp
w::
Send, {Click down}
Send, {Blind}1{Click Right}{Click}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
return
just Pressing w should do the job
Alternately
, the below one will do the same
LButton::Send, {Click down}
RButton::
if GetKeyState("LButton", "P")
{
Send, {Blind}1{Click Right}{Click}{Click Right}{MButton}
Sleep 130 ;125
Send, 1
}
else
Send, {Click Right}
return

How to make "BlockInput On/Off" only block keyboard inputs not mouse

As the title says, I've had trouble finding a way for my script to only block keyboard inputs during my script. Is there a method that I've overlooked to do this? Here's my code for reference:
toggle = 0
*xbutton1::
{
if GetKeyState("d", "P")
{
if GetKeyState("w", "P")
{
BlockInput On ;enabled
Send, {d up}
Send, {w up}
Send, {a down}
Send, {s down}
Send, {K}
BlockInput Off ;disabled when completed with the above actions ^ so no key inputs interfere
Sleep, -1
Send, {a up}
Send, {s up}
Send, {d down}
Send, {w down}
return
}
Thanks! I'd appreciate any info or tips.
You can create a function to only block keyboard input:
; Press F1 to block keyboard input for 10 seconds:
$F1::
BlockKeyboard("On")
Sleep, 10000
BlockKeyboard("Off")
return
BlockKeyboard(state){
Loop, 512
{
Key := Format("SC{:X}",A_Index)
If (state = "On")
Hotkey, *%Key%, KeyboardKey, On UseErrorLevel
else
Hotkey, *%Key%, KeyboardKey, Off UseErrorLevel
}
KeyboardKey:
return
}

AHK - How to hold a macro while Physical Key depressed

What I want to do is this:
Numpad3::
if(not GetKeyState("Shift" , "P") and not GetKeyState("RButton" , "P"))
{
SendInput {Shift down}
Sleep, 33
Click down right
}
Return
Numpad3 Up::
Sleep, 100
Click up right
Sleep, 33
SendInput {Shift up}
Return
But for some reason it isn't canceling when I let the button up. :(
I would suggest to use Send {RButton Down} (or Up) to send the right mouse click, instead of Click up right.
Also, you don't want to be sending random Sleep's if they are not really necessary, as it creates lag and makes the script inelegant and potentially unreadable.
Here is code which sends Control instead of RButton but it's only so I can test it within Notepad++.
Just replace Control with RButton and have a go:
*NumpadPgDn::
*Numpad3::
Send {Shift Down}{Control Down}
return
*NumpadPgDn Up::
*Numpad3 Up::
Send {Shift Up}{Control Up}
return

AutoHotkey - Ignore the pressed key

I want my autohotkey script to have mouse clicks once i press shift+3 keys on my keyboard, ignoring the shift key being held down.
For example I have attempted it in this way:
+3::
SetMouseDelay, 0
MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
Send {Shift Up}
BlockInput, on
Send {Shift Up}
MouseClick, right, uhxpos, uhypos
Sleep, 41
MouseClick, left, yourxpos, yourypos
MouseMove, xpos, ypos
BlockInput, off
return
And even tried to wait once the shift is physically released, still no success;
+3::
SetMouseDelay, 0
MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
KeyWait, +
MouseClick, right, uhxpos, uhypos
Sleep, 41
MouseClick, left, yourxpos, yourypos
MouseMove, xpos, ypos
return
Would appreciate any help, thanks.
Try to send {Shift Down} before {Shift Up} and maybe you should replace Send with SendInput:
+3::
MouseGetPos, xpos, ypos
SetMouseDelay, 0
Sleep, 100
SendInput, {Shift Down}
SendInput, {Shift Up}
MouseClick, right, uhxpos, uhypos
Sleep, 41
MouseClick, left, yourxpos, yourypos
MouseMove, xpos, ypos
Return
use KeyWait, Shift instead of KeyWait, +

Autohotkey: Can't figure out why this is pushing Shift along with the rest of the code

I am trying to make a macro that will repeat hitting O and M as long as i have my side mouse button held down, but all of a sudden now it is also hitting shift. Any idea why or how to fix it?
delaybetweenfkeys:=0
fkeydowndelay:=5
XButton1::
Down := True
Send, {O Down}{m Down}
Loop
{
Send, {O Down}{m Down}
Sleep, 5
Send, {O Up}{m Up}
If !Down
Break
}
Send, {O Up}{m Up}
Return
XButton1 Up::Down := False
You're telling it to send a capital 'O', and to achieve that, it sends Shift+o. So if you have some other key being pressed in the meantime, it will get shifted as well.
