John C. Posted March 28, 2007 Share Posted March 28, 2007 (edited) How to set a hotkey to a key that is pressed twice within certain time frame? Like Google Desktop Search floating bar, pressing Ctrl twice activates it. ;The following code works but also take the z key away from other edit program such as notepad. HotKeySet("z","zz") While 1 Sleep(100) WEnd Func zz() Sleep(100) For $i = 1 To 5 Sleep(100) If _IsPressed("5A") Then ShellExecute("zz.txt") Next ;If @HotKeyPressed = "z" Then ShellExecute("zz.txt") ;If _IsPressed("5A") Then ShellExecute("zz.txt") EndFunc ;Try to define Alt+z(pressed twice) but doesn't work. HotKeySet("!z","zz") While 1 Sleep(100) WEnd Func zz() Sleep(100) For $i = 1 To 5 Sleep(100) If _IsPressed("5A") Then ShellExecute("zz.txt") Next EndFunc ;While using AutoHotKey is easy, but I hate its syntax especially so-called "two methods: traditional and expression" to define variable. ~!z:: if (A_PriorHotkey <> "~!z" or A_TimeSincePriorHotkey > 400) { ; Too much time between presses, so this isn't a double-press. ;KeyWait, z return } ;MsgBox You double-pressed the z key. return Edited March 28, 2007 by John C.
