any function can only block mouse but not keyboard?

[xbtsw 0]

there is a function named blockinput() in autoit, can block both mouse and keyboard in same time, and meanwhile, the script can control the mouse using mousemove() and mouseclick().

is there any way that can only block mouse but keyboard is not blocked at the same time? because i hope i can use a hotkey to control my script, and block mouse to avoid error.

i have tried _mousetrap(), but when the mouse is trapped, the mousemove() and mouseclick() functions doesn't work, as they can't move the mouse too.

Try using mouse trap and control click. I dont think control click actually requires the mouse to move.

Thanks, Controlclick & mousetrap works in winxp

but when i apply controlclick in a 3dgame, i found i can't get the control ID

I know its not the cleanest solution, but you can always unblock input just before you have to move the mouse, click a key, etc, and then blockinput again as soon as you are done.

Like I said, not graceful, but it works.

Thanks for your advise~

Yes, in one of my script i do it in this way, just finding a better solution~

i am guessing that call some dll can block mouse along, but i don't know which dll to call

maybe it will be better for the autoit to separate blockinput to blockkeyboard and blockmouse:)
