JohnOne Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 It sends key one time instead of pressing it. I don't know what that means. Perhaps you can provide a detailed description of what you expect to happen, along with your code. I think a key only repeats when you send it's up too. Unlike the the hardware keyboard which does the up for you when you hold it in the pressed position.

caramen Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 He want to emulate an human pressing. If you hold a key it will repeat the key in text edition like this : tttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttttt but with key send from autoit I guess this should work: For $i = 1 To 100 Send("~") Sleep(10) Next My video tutorials : ( In construction ) || My Discord : https://discord.gg/S9AnwHw How to Ask Help || UIAutomation From Junkew || WebDriver From Danp2 || And Water's UDFs in the Quote Spoiler Water's UDFs:Active Directory (NEW 2018-10-19 - Version 1.4.10.0) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiOutlookEX (2018-10-31 - Version 1.3.4.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example Scripts - WikiExcelChart (2017-07-21 - Version 0.4.0.1) - Download - General Help & Support - Example ScriptsPowerPoint (2017-06-06 - Version 0.0.5.0) - Download - General Help & SupportExcel - Example Scripts - WikiWord - Wiki Tutorials:ADO - Wiki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To hold a key down Send("{a down}") ; Holds the A key down Send("{a up}") ; Releases the A key Yes, it doesn't work just sends it one time I tried something like this also sleep (1000) Send("{ASC 0126 down}") sleep (5000) Send("{ASC 0126 up}") It doesn't work at all, probably coded wrong.

BrewManNH Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The Send command will not activate key repeat, ControlSend won't do it either. You'd have to send the key multiple times yourself to get it to do what you want Send("{~ 10}") will send the tilde key 10 times in a row. BTW, this isn't an AutoIt limitation for Send, as it does the same thing using VBScript with the SendKeys function in it. If I posted any code, assume that code was written using the latest release version unless stated otherwise. Also, if it doesn't work on XP I can't help with that because I don't have access to XP, and I'm not going to.Give a programmer the correct code and he can do his work for a day.
