Problem using command "HotKeySet"

[apollo13]

I have a problem using command "HotKeySet"

I want that pressing on keyboard "CTRL" & "ESC" the program close process & exit but don't Run.

This is an example.

Run("calc.exe")

While 1

HotKeySet("^{ESC}", "EndAll")

Sleep(100)

Wend

Func EndAll()

processclose("calc.exe")

Exit(0)

EndFunc

---> I have proved to change "^" that is "CTRL" with {LCTRL} but nothing to do

If I change button option " ^ "

with "+" ----> "SHIFT" & "ESC" run very well

with "!" ----> "ALT" & "ESC" run very well

Is not possible combine "CTRL/ESC" ???

Thanks

Ctrl-Esc is a system hotkey for the start menu, so no, you cannot combine them. There might be ways round, such as ending explorer.exe(not recommended) but you shouldn't intefere with other programs hotkeys.

Also, you don't need to set a hotkey every 100ms. You only need to set it once.

I'm having a problem when trying to set hotkeys with numbers , i.e : "^w{1}" which resembles a Ctrl+W+1 , but it doesn't work for me , when I reach the letter 'W' the function registered with the hotkey is called , without waiting for the last digit '1' , any idea ?

I don't think you can combine those keys. Use CTRL + KEY, CTRL + SHIFT + KEY, ALT + KEY etc...
