XampPause used with "HotKeySet"

[jfcby]

Hi,

Included is three XamplePause codes that you can use, modify, and change as needed. When putting thes scripts together I used AutoIT3 Forum and Help File.

Code 1: Pause your script with a "HotSetKey" using the keyboard "Pause/Break" key then after un-pauseing the script it re-starts at the same location specificed by you.

Local $msg, $lbCount, $Count, $Exit

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "PaRsSameLocation")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "_Exit")

GUICreate("XampPause Restart SaLoc", 275, 100); will create a dialog box that when displayed is centered
    
    GUICtrlCreateLabel('Keboard Keys: "Esc" = Exit Script' & @LF & @LF & ' and "Pause/Break" = Pause Script', 30, 5, 175, 50, $SS_CENTER)
    $lbCount = GUICtrlCreateLabel("1", 10, 75, 25, 25)
    $Count = GUICtrlCreateButton("Count", 45, 75, 50, 20)   
    $Exit = GUICtrlCreateButton("Exit", 100, 75, 50, 20)
    
GUISetState();Displays an empty dialog box
    
;Run the GUI until the dialog is closed
    Do
        $msg = GUIGetMsg()
        Select
            Case $msg = $Count
                MsgBox(0, "You clicked on", "Yes")
                For $i = 1 to 50                    
                    Sleep(500)
                    GUICtrlSetData($lbCount, $i)
                Next
                For $i = 50 to 1 Step -1                    
                    Sleep(500)
                    GUICtrlSetData($lbCount, $i)
                Next
                MsgBox(0,"", "Count Complete...")           
            Case $msg = $Exit

        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',395,325)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("") 
EndFunc

Func _Exit()
    Exit 0
EndFunc

Code 2: Pause your script with a "HotSetKey" using the keyboard "Pause/Break" key then after un-pauseing the script it re-starts at a different location specificed by you.
