dbbm Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Hi I'm new to AutoIt and i wanted to send a key continuously down for some seconds. I adapted the code that is in the documentation: WinActivate ("Untitled - Notepad") Send("{a down}") ;Holds the A key down Sleep(5000) Send("{a up}") Is not working properly. It's sending a single "a". Any ideas about what might be the problem? Thanks in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest AX5 Posted December 25, 2009 Share Posted December 25, 2009 Try this Run("notepad.exe") ; Run Notepad If Not WinActive("[CLASS:Notepad]") Then WinActivate("[CLASS:Notepad]") WinWaitActive("[CLASS:Notepad]") Sleep(1000) ; Sleeps 1 seconds While 1 Send("{a down}") Sleep(1000); Sleeps 1 seconds WEnd ; Stop loop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
