Pause Script Until Enter is Pressed

[mulletmandan]

Okay, I ran into another issue with my script. I am trying to tell the script to wait until Enter is pressed (i.e. send a message saying "Adjust the crop and press enter" then tell the script to wait) so the user can adjust the cropping of the prescanned photo, then press enter. I would assume I use SetHotKey, but my scripts always seem to have errors. Any help would be greatly apreciated! Oh, and I have searched around here and the help files.

are you able to post your code? without code, this is my best suggestion...

HotKeySet("{ENTER}","UnPause")
;program statements to execute before pause

while 1
sleep(100)
wend

Func UnPause()
;statements to execute after pause
EndFunc

***edit*** i always forget to add the code close tag...

Basic computing keyword and also pseudocode.

For every While you have you must also have an Wend. Just like for every If you have an EndIf.

While 1
;... Error

While 1
;No error
Wend
