Noob question

[UnknownWarrior]

Well im trying to make this nifty little tool for myself but i can't seem to get this to work

While 1
                Send('{CTRLDOWN}')
            MouseClick("left", x, y)
        WEnd

It wouldn't do both for me at the same time, any ideas?

Well the way you wrote it, you're telling the program to Send() first before the MouseClick()

[UnknownWarrior]

Thats what i want it to do, i want to it send to hold ctrl down and left click in the x, y coordinates.

[BALA]

There's a way, though I only vaguely remember. So no help there

[UnknownWarrior]

RAWR! Its ok thanks for trying, anyone else know how to do this correctly?

[BALA]

Wait I got an idea

Have it hold down the mouse click then send the key

Same effect right?

No i need it to hold down ctrl then click, for a certain thing im doing....

[BALA]

I have another idea, hold on while I make sure

EDIT: use the SendKeyDownDelay command

EDIT EDIT: I mean the AutoItSetOption command and have the option be SendKeyDownDelay

Why could that make a difference though?

While 1
           SendKeyDownDelay('{CTRLDOWN}')
           MouseClick("left", x, y)
       WEnd

that how you do it, even if thats the correct way i wrote it, why would be using the the send() and that different?

How could i do that? , now you just confusing me lol.

(sry for double post guys)

Search on the help file for AutoItSetOption

Then you will set the delay so it's just enough for the mouseclick to happen while it's still down

[UnknownWarrior]

I want it to hold ctrldown for ever until i send ctrlup... will it still work the way your telling me to do it? will it hold ctrl down forever until i send ctrlup?

Hello,

hmmz, what is actually your goal?

because, if you want the program to get a piece of a string, it will constantly do that, so it will look like that it isn't doing anything

or am i having the wrong idea ?

i'll see =P

[BALA]

I think that would be possible, again let me check that over.

I want it to loop and Send ctrldown and have a various line of mouseclicks while ctrl is still being held down....

Found it!

"To hold a key down (generally only useful for games)

Send("{a down}") ;Holds the A key down
Send("{a up}") ;Releases the A key

"

All you have to do is put the mouseclick between those two
