Control button hotkey

[paul1149]

Hi,

Is there some way to assign a hotkey to a control button? I'm trying to eliminate mousework.

Thanks,

Paul

Look at GUISetAccelerators().

Look at GUISetAccelerators().

That looks perfect. Can you tell me what I'm doing wrong with this statement?

Example from Help file works fine here:

; Set accelerators for Ctrl+y and Ctrl+n
Dim $AccelKeys[2][2]=[["^y", $YesID], ["^n", $NoID]]
GUISetAccelerators($AccelKeys)

But my code:

Dim $AccelKeys[3][3]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID]], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]
GUISetAccelerators($AccelKeys)

yields this error:

AutoIt Error
---------------------------
Line 72 (File "C:\util\AutoIt\MyScripts\File rename - lower case.au3"):

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID]], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]
Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID]], ^ ERROR

Error: No variable given for "Dim", "Local", "Global", "Struct" or "Const" statement.

I'd like to get the Esc key in there as well. Obviously I'm missing the boat on arrays somehow!

Thanks,

Something like:

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]]

Something like:

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]]

I think I tried that, but trying it again

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID]], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]

brings me the same error.

Thanks,

Why do you have AGAIN the double square brackets in the wrong place?

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID]], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]

That was the problem. The solution looks like this:

Dim $AccelKeys[3][2]=[["y", $YesID], ["n", $NoID], ["{ESC}", $ExitID]]

Isn't that more or less what I posted?

It looks exactly right. I was so focused on the array parameters that I didn't even notice the double brackets.
