cjconstantine 0 Posted March 14, 2006 Ok, here's what I'm trying to do (script is programmed as OnEvent)... I have a GuiCtrlCreateInput designated for the definition of a hotkey, what I want to do is when the user presses the keys they want to use for the hotkey it will appear in the control (ie ... user presses CTRL+A as the hotkey, then CTRL+A appears in the control). But ... if they just press CTRL or ALT or SHIFT and release the field is cleared out. And no other input is allowed after a "non-special" key is pressed (ie, with the above example ... after the A key is pressed no other key will appear in the input box. Yep ... I am still a noob. But I do realize this may creep into "that which must not be named area" (keylogger). I've looked at the _IsPressed UDF, but I can't wrap my head around how to use it in this case.

"alt+ctrl") ; $return[1] is key (eg. "s") ; $return[2] is hotkey in send format (eg.

There is a limit to the number of hotkeys you can set, i think. #) EDIT: fed up of trying to get rid of that &39; and &37;... they won;t go away no matter what i do!

cjconstantine 0 Posted March 15, 2006 Thank you both for the code! Both use GuiGetMsg so I don't think they'll work with OnEvent ... but it did give me a nudge in a different direction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
