jezzzzy Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 (edited) Look into HotKeySet. The HotKey example in the help file will get you going in the right direction. Put your "run script" stuff in a function like the TogglePause() in the example. Edited April 25, 2007 by jezzzzy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpookMeister Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 Look up the HotKeySet in the Help File. Basic idea in pseudo code: Set your hotkey (it references a function) Do a loop to wait until the hotkey is pressed Here is where your function does what you want [u]Helpful tips:[/u]If you want better answers to your questions, take the time to reproduce your issue in a small "stand alone" example script whenever possible.
