Using Autoit to move mouse

[Tricky898]

I've created a short test script which is supposed to simply right click, move the mouse slightly, and then left click when a hotkey is pressed. However, when I press the hotkey, the function to move the mouse is not called. Am I missing something fundamental? Many thanks

HotkeySet("^{F10}", "myexit")
Func myexit()
Exit
EndFunc
 
HotKeySet("^{F11}","movemouse")
 
Func movemouse()
    
mouseclick("right")
    $pos = MouseGetPos()
MouseMove($pos[0], $pos[1] + 37, 10)
mouseclick("left")
 
 
EndFunc

EDIT: Working now!

How long does your script run?

As far as I can see it will just run and then exit immediately.

Try adding a loop at the end:

While 1
    Sleep(200)

When this is the whole script it will end right away after it is started!

You need some sort of loop to keep the script active.

Ah, silly me, I thought it would be something simple like this !

Thanks a lot - will give it another try.

EDIT: Got it working!

    MsgBox(0, "MOUSE INFO", "Mouse x,y: " & $pos1[0] & "," & $pos1[1])
    Sleep(200)
    MouseMove($pos1[0] + 20, $pos1[1] + 20, 10)

EndFunc
Func myexit()
    Exit
EndFunc
HotkeySet("^{F10}", "myexit")
HotKeySet("^{F11}","movemouse")
While 1
    Local $pos0 = MouseGetPos()
    ToolTip ( "Mouse x,y: " & $pos0[0] & " __ " & $pos0[1], 0, 0, "TOOLTIP title" , 1, 2)
