Alt, Crtl or Shift problem

[orlanth]

Hi everybody,

i have this problem since one year and i searched on several forum and no answers.

i use an autoit script with many shortkey like if i push f5 i launch the shortkey alt and b. and i have shortkey with ctrl or shift too.

and after several minutes i see crtl or alt or shift like push down (i see that on visual keyboard) and if it is a alt problem i must push alt to resolve.

to make a shortkey i use hotsetkey and send("!{b}")

my os is window seven

I got same problem since long time ago, solution is to use _IsPressed() UDF if there is a need to mix alt, ctrl, or shift keys.

If  (_IsPressed("01") And _IsPressed("02")) Then ...

; use this form like you see below instead of Send("!{b}")
Send("{ALT DOWN}b{ALT UP}")

Hi and Welcome to the forum!

I believe you have the problem describe in the FAQ under Why does the Ctrl key get stuck down after I run my script?, you should look at that.
