TheFuzzy0ne Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Hello, everyone. I have a key on my British keyboard, situated above the tab key. It's a backtick (sample below). ` However, on an American keyboard, it's in a different place. Since it's unlikely to be used when I am using AutoIt, I'd like to use it as a hot key for pausing a running script. I've been unsuccessful in discovering the hex code for this. Is there any way I can find out using AutoIt? Many thanks in advance.
TheFuzzy0ne Posted January 18, 2019 Author Posted January 18, 2019 While I think about it... Is there any way to use a key combination for pausing? I think it would be easier if I used something like {CTRL} + {SPACE}, which is unlikely to ever be used any other time.
Subz Posted January 18, 2019 Posted January 18, 2019 Welcome to AutoIt Search for "Closing single quote" for "`" and you'll find it under ASCII Character Codes. Yes you can use combinations to pause, have a look at HotKeySet in the helpfile, it includes examples.
