How Release Hotkey If Win Isn't Active Anymore ?

[mozart90]

Hi,

I use the Enter key as a Hotkey and I would like to release the Hotkey while the my Skript Windows isn't active, so I can use the Enter key properly in other applications.

I tried this but it actually isn' working:

While 1
    if WinActive("My Skript") then  
;ToolTip("Hotkey enter active")
        HotKeySet("{Enter}", "Enter_Key_Pressed")
    else 
;ToolTip("")
        HotKeySet("{Enter}")
    endif   

    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select

    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop

    Case Else
;;;;;;;
    EndSelect


wend

any suggestions??

HI,

this works for me. Give it a try:

Opt("WinTitleMatchMode", 4)
$title = 'YOUR TITLE'

While 1
    If WinActive($title) = 0 Then
        ToolTip("not active")
        HotKeySet("{Enter}")
    ElseIf WinActive($title) = 1 Then
        ToolTip("active")
        HotKeySet("{Enter}", "Enter_Key_Pressed")
    EndIf
    Sleep(10)
WEnd


Func Enter_Key_Pressed()
    MsgBox(0, "", "Enter")
EndFunc  ;==>Enter_Key_Pressed

So long,

Well as far as I can see that should work, you might consider putting that all in a function, without the loop that is, and then do something like this...

adlibenable("check",50)

while 1
sleep(100)
wend

Func check()
    if WinActive("My Skript") then  
        HotKeySet("{Enter}", "Enter_Key_Pressed")
    else 
        HotKeySet("{Enter}")
    endif   

    $msg = GuiGetMsg()
    Select

    Case $msg = $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
        ExitLoop

    Case Else
    EndSelect
EndFunc

that is how I got something like this to work before...
