inserting a pause or delay for 20 millisecnds

[JackD]

Hi Support.

Got AutoIt v3 installed, and this script works in a ScriptDeck plugin for my Streamdeck XL hardware unit.

-----------

import-Module “F:\UTILLITIES\AutoIt3\AutoItX”
Initialize-AU3
Send-AU3Key -Key “{LALT}{LWIN}1{LALT}{LWIN}” -Mode 0

 

--------------

My Question: How can you insert a pause before the "-Mode 0" is executed?

Thanks for looking.

Hello,

welcome to the forums.

I don't use AutoitX, looks like powershell, right?

then possibly the PS included sleep will do the trick?

Import-Module "F:\UTILLITIES\AutoIt3\AutoItX"
Initialize-AU3

Start-Sleep -Milliseconds 500   # or -Seconds 1

Send-AU3Key -Key "{LALT}{LWIN}1{LALT}{LWIN}" -Mode 0

Hint: Use the button labeled "<>" to post code.

You cannot pause “before -Mode 0”, because within PowerShell the parameters are evaluated together.
