Click and drag on command

[tammelol]

Hello, i'm totally new to scripting. I'd only like to get a script done which will drag and drop x,y to x,y on my command when pressing numpad keys (8,4,5,6). And so it wouldn't just complete the loop and close. I want it to be open and available whenever i press any of the numpad keys.

Can someone guide me through this process, so far i've managed to make it drag and drop but i don't know how to apply a faster speed or how to assign it on a specific button command.

Or if someone has too much free time would be willing to make this script for me

Kind Regards, tammelol

There are many tutorial options to choose from. Go to Youtube.com and search keyword 'AutoIt Tutorial' a slew of options will appear for you. You use the same keyword and search the forums here, and you will also find multiple options.

Once you have a basic understanding of AutoIt, then lookup these following functions. They will give you a head start towards what you ask.

HotKeySet() ;Use this to set your Hotkeys (8,4,5,6)

MouseClickDrag() ; There is a parameter for setting the speed at which the mouse will move.

Now, after writing your first script, and you still having problems with it. Provide your script here, or at least show an example of it, and more ppl will be willing to respond and help you.

Asking for someone to make your script for you, is not going to work, there are freelance scripting sites that will cover those services.

Good Luck & Hope to see you around

Edit: btw, Welcome to the AutoIt Forums

Thanks for reply and yes, i knew asking to someone to make a script for me is just... well stupid. Well, anyway this is what i have so far ( i decided to go with arrow keys ) but i keep getting error with HotKeySet command. However i managed to make it endless sleep. Perhaps someone can tell me what i am doing wrong.

Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("+!d", "ShowMessage")  ;Shift-Alt-d
HotKeySet ( "{RIGHT}", "MouseClickDrag({left}, 400, 500, 500, 500")
While 1
    Sleep(100)
WEnd
;;;;;;;;
Func TogglePause()
    $Paused = NOT $Paused
    While $Paused
        sleep(100)
        ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',0,0)
    WEnd
    ToolTip("")
EndFunc
Func Terminate()
    Exit 0
EndFunc
Func ShowMessage()
    MsgBox(4096,"","This is a message.")
EndFunc

It's the part with the HotKeySet RIGHT

EDIT: I managed to make it endless sleep and do the right drag but it occurs right away and not on my command

i changed the line to

HotKeySet ( "{RIGHT}", MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 500, 500))

Sorry for double post, unable to edit, nevermind, i got it doing what i want, and it's getting interesting

You have to put the MouseClickDrag in a function, and call that function with HotKeySet.

edit: Oh, I guess you don't..

tammelol,

The syntax is wrong...should be

HotKeySet("{RIGHT}", MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 500, 500))

However, when I run this it immediatley executes the mousedrag and then loops.

Well i got it working like this

HotKeySet("{RIGHT}", "_Site1")
HotKeySet("{LEFT}", "_Site2")
HotKeySet("{UP}", "_Site3")
HotKeySet("{DOWN}", "_Site4")
Func _Site1()
MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 500, 500, 3)
EndFunc ;==> _Site1
Func _Site2()
MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 300, 500, 3)
EndFunc ;==> _Site2
Func _Site3()
MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 400, 400, 3)
EndFunc ;==> _Site3
Func _Site4()
MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 400, 600, 3)
EndFunc ;==> _Site4

But it's reactions are like really slow, the mouse is instantly in place yes but it takes like half a second to start dragging which is too long, i need it to start dragging immediately when i click.

tammelol,

Perhaps hotkeyset is not your best option. Can you explain exactly what you are trying to do. Also, consider the fllowing code:

#include <misc.au3>
Global $Paused
HotKeySet("{PAUSE}", "TogglePause")
HotKeySet("{ESC}", "Terminate")
HotKeySet("+!d", "ShowMessage") ;Shift-Alt-d
While 1
Sleep(100)
if _ispressed("02") then MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 500, 500)
WEnd
;;;;;;;;
Func TogglePause()
$Paused = NOT $Paused
While $Paused
sleep(100)
ToolTip('Script is "Paused"',0,0)
WEnd
ToolTip("")
EndFunc
Func Terminate()
Exit 0
EndFunc
Func ShowMessage()
MsgBox(4096,"","This is a message.")
EndFunc

kylomas,

Well to put it simply, it's kind of a rhytm game, where arrows come and at the right time you need to drag a thingie in the direction the arrow is showing, as the tempo keeps increasing, it's difficult to control it with mouse, so i want to try this with keyboard controls, so plainly i need it to react as fast or faster than conventional mouse control. I know it sounds like a bunch of nonsense but it means a lot to me.

I tried your script but no known button on the keyboard sets off the command

MouseClickDrag("left", 400, 500, 500, 500)
