AlfzZz Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Hi can anyone show me a script that sends the keystroke of "a" every 2 seconds? I tried doing this but it would just type the "a" key really fast. I think i set the delay wrong.

Vivvic Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Im asuming you have "Sleep(2)" in your script, try "Sleep(2000)" instead [quote name='DaleHohm']You have a strange habit of posting error messages that don't match your code.[/quote][quote name='SmOke_N']Forget the learning... straight to the scripting :lol: (laugh.gif)[/quote]
AlfzZz Posted September 22, 2006 Author Posted September 22, 2006 (edited) i have no clue what im doing, it took me a while to get this set up, i dont know if this is the right way Global $Paused HotKeySet("{INSERT}", "TogglePause") HotKeySet("{END}", "Terminate") While 1 Sleep(110) WEnd Func TogglePause() $Paused = NOT $Paused While $Paused Opt("SendKeyDelay", 10000000) ;5 milliseconds Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 10000) ;1 millisecond Send("{a down}") WEnd EndFunc Func Terminate() Exit 0 EndFuncexpandcollapse popup you can probably code somthing like this in a more simple way... ok so i fixed it by adding sleep(800) on a new line after send("{a down}") will there be an easier way to write this script? like a shorter way Edited September 22, 2006 by AlfzZz Moderators SmOke_N Posted September 22, 2006 SmOke_N Moderators 16.3k 49 It's not what you know ... It's what you can prove! Moderators Posted September 22, 2006 Looks like you need a basic understanding of the options for time.$millisecond = 1 $second = 1000 $minute = 60000 $hour = 3600000See a pattern there?Also, I'd suggest trying this:http://www.autoitscript.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=21048Once you understand it, you'll be able to answer most questions yourself without the need for being told to RTFM. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer.
Skruge Posted September 22, 2006 Posted September 22, 2006 Opt("SendKeyDownDelay", 10000) ;1 millisecondYour delays are way off... [font="Tahoma"]"Tougher than the toughies and smarter than the smarties"[/font]
AlfzZz Posted September 22, 2006 Author Posted September 22, 2006 what does RTFM mean? i understand the time, :\ the only problem was that i set the delays wrong and when i added sleep (number) it turned out to be way easier
